Buick WCN @ Las Vegas 2005

Length: 00:34

Build version 2.0. Darn, short shifted 3rd! Special thanks to XxDARKSIDExX for the clip. This particular weekend was the first time where aggressive use of nitrous oxide injection to spool up the turbo at the launch was used by us. It was actually the first weekend that the tune-up was being bumped up before a planned PM of the engine. A boost spike problem ended the weekend prematurely. Although build version 3.x.x is greatly detuned to provide better protection against a stray boost spike, initial calculations and test runs show that after the engine management is dialed in, the new build should, at the very least, match the best performance of the previous engine build.
