odell1523 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Sitting at school, got a little bored, wanted to hear you guys input
BlackT5 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Depends what you wanna do with your car. Are you satisfied with the power? (laf)no particular order...swayspistons/rodsHIDst3/t4clear headlightsdvdjust throwing ideas..
BlackT5 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 What about something very few people have done... tubular mani. form the 2 dyno comparisons i've seen, switching from a log style to a tubular equal length sees gains of 60whp. not sure how your bottom end would like that extra power though..
odell1523 Posted November 18, 2004 Author Report Posted November 18, 2004 yea no kidding...maybe if VMS comes out with that manifold...im planning on getting autoverdi rods over winter break along with t3/t04e if all goes as planned...im thinking about starting to do autocross so sways will be a definate, drag racing gets boring
V Tuning 850 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Slap some IPD sways on, if you don't already.
BlackT5 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 I'm stuck trying to decide weather to go with a ball bearing turbo, or just go with a standard 360 race bearing for about half the price.I want a fast spool, so if I went with a standard bearing, i would probably just go .63 A/R on the hot side then a t04e compressor housing with maybe a 50-60 trim compressor wheel. ball bearing would be nice, but they are very picky about proper lubrication and cost a lot more.
Mesoam Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 how about you get that FMIC mounted...... :D
odell1523 Posted November 18, 2004 Author Report Posted November 18, 2004 it is mounted, just havent run the piping
BlackT5 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 it is mounted, just havent run the piping←Well, get on it hippie!
jo346820 Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 If you are driving this thing everyday, make it more enjoyable with some suspension upgrades. I agree with the sways...ride quality won't be down as much as with new springs.HIDS, Clear Headlights, and DVDs....bleh, IMHO.A car is about driving. Make it drive like you want it to. -JoeP.s. I just found out, this is why most european cars don't really have cup holders. Because if you have time to sip a drink, you aren't really driving.
theunderlord Posted November 18, 2004 Report Posted November 18, 2004 Chris, you got any recent pics of your car you can post?
