WTF does "Highly modified" mean in your sig???



Tuning is going to have substantial influence on your HP gains. But I don't think anybody has any idea what's done to your car, so advising beyond that is just guessing ;)

They (VS) wax their cars? I thought the lastest craze was to wrap them in viynl so the paint is flat. At least thats what won the IPD show.

When I did my swap, Red went from 286whp (IPD Stage I) to 307whp (IPD Stage 3) (Dynapack dyno). 1/4 mile time went from 14.06 to 13.6.

got a 16t on there right now and every other mod except a fmic, is it worth it to throw an 18t on there, what kind of power increase would i see, couple more horses, not much maybe?

Dont mind the kids!!! The 18T is a really nice upgrade from a 16t and with a proper tune from say ARD have yourself a car that gives any 335i, STI 370Z a run for its money.

By the way... all that jizz cum crap is really fukin strange? Is it a closet thing? Or I have a bizarre sense of humour thing?

Does the 18t spool faster than the 16t? Was considering this for my c70... just worried now because i have a 18psi tune currently and some people are telling me i will be bending rods with this...

In one thread that was about Long Beach and Faulty, he started telling us he loved penis, and semen. Really odd tbh...

Remember PSI is not equal to volume

at same psi 18t moves more air than 16t, not a lot more but more, so you will need to tune for that

You might end up running lower boost and having more usable power.
