Got To Drive The Auto Today !

I did not get to go all out in any gear but I did get some pretty hard 2-3 shifts and man does it go ! Boost is more linear through the shifts as expected. John from Coastal did some little tricks to it to make the transition between shifts hard but not to the point where it slams the car. I did get one 2nd gear romp down the side street by Coastal and I had it pitched sideways like a sprint car for about 100 feet while hazing the tires. 
The button for the trans brake is broken so I will need to get that fixed otherwise TJ did a killer job putting it all together and fabbed me some nice custom stuff.
Tried to power brake it and the brakes would not hold the car because of the brake boost leak I have. Same reason I could not burn out properly with the manual trans..
Anyway I am excited to get it down to see how much it is going to pick up. So far I am like the auto over the manual.

glad to hear you got it working for the most part. is it going on the rollers again on the 7th?

Yeah I might dyno it to see how much it will loose on the rollers since auto cars tend to not show their real numbers.
And as far as the brakes go I was glad to find the leak in the booster because I was starting to wonder WTF my problem was with burnouts.
only reason why automatics wouldn't show their "real" #s would be if the car is running an extremely loose converter... other than that it should be pretty accurate...
