I am running link on SD, I have peak timing at 23* and a very aggressive curve. You really have to squeeze these little turbos to make good power. The trans is from dogboxracing, its a full evo3 gearset that was face plated. This trans shifts AWESOME! This faceplate mod can be done by Liberty transmission for around $750 i believe. My trans has all the bells and whistles you would normally find in regular stage 4 build but was faceplated, and its a welded center diff. Air shifter is not needed, this thing hammers shifts.

I have had quite a few set up related questions so I figure its worth mentioning that my profile should have an up to date mod list of the important mods.

how many gears were face plated? does this ruin daily drivabilty like dog boxes? whats it like when not drag racing. can it be shifted slowly?
 
1-4 are faceplated, 5th is still a synchro. I def would not recommend it for a daily driven car. I have learned how to drive it without banging shifts Everytime but it's not pleasant at all in city traffic.

I drive it about 2000 miles a year and is tolerable for that. People def look at you funny at stop lights. Between the twin disk and the faceplating it can be noisy
 
It certainly helps shifting quality and you pretty much can't miss a shift however the down side is you don't gain any strength since it's still Mitsubishi gears. So big power cars will still strip gears with this mod.
 
I've looked your slip up and down and for a 5 speed and weight of the car that's some expert level driving you put together there. Nice work.
