oh rly! gluck with your reliable TT set up @8k, specially if you are gonna track like the op.

I predict this thread will disintegrate rapidly into another morass of

Which is pretty stupid considering the guy is HAPPY with his setup.

Reccomend a mod Lock it so the threads integrity can be spared. Really good write up, if the power gain/loss was within his accepted margin of error in relation to his cost, and the minor issues that are specific to his situation are controllable and he has a good fix in place then so what. Not every applicant wants 500+ HP. Congrats OP and enjoy your product! Now we just need pics/vids!
