162.57mph on 2nd pass at 41psi Than Subie blows up tranny and shuts the track down

The first run we did was a shakedown. The tires always heat up 3 psi than we lower them down. 2nd pass was more to make sure our gears where going in right and get the trans warmed up. 3rd pass which i didn't get was a more go for it pass.
We took the launch down to 8700rpms from 9000rpms which really seemed to help. We added the stock struts with Eibach coils plus a Perren sway bar in the rear. Seemed to really help if you watch the video

I heard somewhere you did make a 3rd pass but the car was miss firing due to fouled plugs? Did you guys get that sorted out? Or is still fouling out plugs? I wonder if the anti lag with VP import fouls them out or not. That VP import is weird with any type of anitlag from what I have seen.

Interesting to see the Eibach/oem strut combo.
Much softer i bet than your other c/o combo.
On my old 03 Cobra the best susp combo was real simple pregressive rate springs and stock bilstien shocks.
Thos Eibachs are progressive rate correct?

Glad to see you're getting things worked out for that 8 sec pass Paul.

Ive been playing with adjustment on my front Megan tracks to see if will help some. The sway bar seemed to help also in the rear.
Ive got a few other tricks im going to try which i know will help. But at 162 mph she was hugging the ground very well and very stable.
