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

We just cranked the boost up to 48psi for a 170mph pass when a subie blows up a 5 speed tranny and spreads it across the track in all directions O well we will be back to the track real soon.
im still here ill put up video and slips Car is rocking good its crying for the boost to be turned up

We put in the stock struts in the rear which helped a bunch out of the hole

The 2nd pass was just a shakedown pass i was only shifting at 9500rpms to make sure everything was working right I would normally shift at 10,500 than the turbo drops to 9200rpms with a power shift.
