ummm... i got pulled over details at the next meet, im busy workin hince the lack of posting on my part.
ps
got rims today, picking them up tonight at uckk.

 

u guys must be rich! my full tank of gas is now ~45 bucks !

 

same here $45 and no im poor

 

and the modding begins...

 

yeah, actually im poor... so poor my only mod is a razo rearview mirror....lol
im about to buy an exhaust [prolly catback] HKS HIPOWER? or Espelir JGT500
i know i should post this somewhere else, but i just want to know what the locals think.

 

id be getting new exhaust too..
so i need to hear some subies rev this coming monday.

 

IMO...dont bother with a catback. It will only add sound, no power. Get a downpipe or turboback. Those WILL give you noticable gains.

If all you want is sound, just get a used muffler for cheap. $400-$500 for a catback that only adds sound...maybe 5 hp is definatly NOT worth it. Again, just my humble opinion

 

agreed with OCD, catbacks would just add anywhere between 5-10 hp... not much for $400-$500... buy a catback that is used and then another used downpipe.. this will get you so close to half the price of full tbe's that are brand new

yeah, thats just my 2 cents

 

Mike, you shoulda gone to uckk. There were about 50 cars tonight (NO B.S.!). Dan (davon) gave people rides in his nearly 400 whp gt35 powered bugeye, and "gilmore" was there with his sz55 powered BLACK (whew!) 06, tuned by g-s to 330.

 

i would have gone but i had to pick up my gf from work, her car was at the audi dealer in concord getting some work done so i wouldnt have been there till 10:30ish
get any pics??
Noz

 

No, but my friend is gonna post the vid from my ride in Davon's car. You can hear me screaming in the background, lol. He probably has some pics of the meet too.

 

Hustle to live, live to drive!

Full tank for me is around the same. But i invest in some 100 octane every once in a while too.

 

I agree, I put my downpipe on first (Helix catless bellmouth) I noticed very good throttle reponse and noticable power. A few months later i got my catback installed (Greddy SP2) I definately noticed really nice sound, like a rumbly growl. But with the parts together I got about 10 hp gain. I baselined at 235 to the wheels after just those two installs. But the throttle response is what i noticed the most. In closing mostly from the downpipe. But I agree with subie OCD.

Although if you did a catback first then you would have a 2.5" downpipe going into a 3" catback. Compared to a 3"dowpipe going into a 2.5" catback. From a common sense point of view the 3" into a 2.5" would give you a little back pressure as where the other way would give you better flow. Not sure just a thought that i where talking about at the meet.

Just my two cents!

Nice meeting you james. Like the car. Yeah man lets get this meet poppin'. If you want to show us how the greeks drive you should try to go on the cruise with us on monday! It should be a fun drive.
