 CRUST: Set oven @ 350oF/175oC. Using on/off turns,
 finely chop 1 cup pecans in processor; transfer to
 medium bowl. Mix in graham cracker crumbs and sugar.
 Drizzle butter over; blend until evenly moistened. Press
 mixture firmly over bottom and up sides of 9" glass pie
 dish (not on rim).

 Bake crust until golden brown, about 12 minutes (if
 crust puffs, press firmly back into place). Cool crust
 completely. Wrap in foil and freeze at least 1 hour.

 DO AHEAD: Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep frozen.

 SAUCE & FILLING Bring first 3 ingredients to boil in
 heavy medium saucepan over medium heat, whisking until
 sugar dissolves. Boil caramel 5 minutes, whisking
 occasionally. Turn off heat; whisk in butter, vanilla,
 and salt. Cool completely.

 Slightly soften 1 cup vanilla ice cream in microwave on
 low in 10-second intervals. Spread ice cream evenly in
 frozen pie crust; spread 1/4 cup caramel over. Freeze
 pie until ice cream and caramel are firm, about 1 hour.
 Repeat with remaining vanilla ice cream in three 1-cup
 portions and caramel in two 1/4-cup portions. Freeze pie
 overnight. Cover and reserve remaining caramel at room
 temperature.

 GANACHE TOPPING: Combine chocolate, cream, and corn
 syrup in medium metal bowl. Place over saucepan of
 simmering water and whisk until melted and smooth.
 Remove from heat. Whisk in vanilla and salt. Cool
 ganache at room temperature until thick but still
 pourable, about 30 minutes.

 Pour ganache evenly over frozen pie. Sprinkle with
 remaining 1/2 cup pecans. Freeze until ganache is firm,
 at least 45 minutes. Drizzle decoratively with 1/4 cup
 reserved caramel. DO AHEAD Can be made 2 days ahead.
 Cover and keep frozen. Cover and chill remaining
 caramel.

 Let pie stand 10 minutes at room temperature. Rewarm
 remaining caramel, stirring over low heat. Cut pie into
 wedges and serve with caramel.

 To remove the first piece of pie, slide the knife
 between the crust and the dish all the way around the
 pie. Then cut out the first slice, being sure to cut
 through the crust completely.
