No it is actually geared lower then stock, it has an Aspire final drive in it. I wanted it to be extra quick off the line. it also has a lightened 12lb flywheel and race clutch in it so the total rotational weight of the clutch and flywheel is less then just the stock B6t flywheel......result is has a lot of low end punch. This car has been pretty radically lightened too. probably in the high 1500lb total range so it goes faster on less horsepower.
Hey Dean, have you even gotten off stock boost yet? try flipping the boost toggle on the dash and you will be going to 12psi..... see how that feels!

Hey Chris... after my 1st drive in the car, being slammed back into the seat like a sledge hammer hit me, I was a little SKEERED to flip the boost switch on!

Back Story
I wanted to fill in some background from Sunday afternoon.
Dean had to leave Sunday and while he was gone, Sam finished bolting everything back together. When he was done, he came in the house just bursting to try to start the car and, well, I'll let him tell you......
Dean didn't see this video until Sunday evening after we put the car away and went back in the house.
