    • @loganjames4607
      @loganjames4607 2 года назад +2

      All in the clutch work. Slip the clutch for just a short moment as the rpms fall during a gear change and the rpm will synchronize perfectly before any significant engine load is applied to the drivetrain again. Removes the herky jerky feeling, saves drivetrain components and bushings, and doesn't really affect clutch life much.
      Basically, just don't let the clutch out so fast during gear changes.

      I didn't have an issue with that, if I remember with my IC piping I fed it through the power steering lines somehow. I had to weave it between a couple to make room

    I can't believe those turbo noises! Sounds amazing. No under the hood mic shenanigans that's the real stuff.

    Always love seeing this yata on the channel! Idk what I love more the fact that its comfortably pushing 220, or that I'm listening to a Miata with no lifter tick !!!
