Well the last two days here in DC have been good enough that I could take the FD out for the first time since around November or so...



WOW what a great car. I've been driving my daily driver Acura RSX-S and when I took the FD out I realized that it pulled so much harder at 2500 RPM than the Acura does at 7500 https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png



I was out testing my new wastegate and my new 5th gear ratio and I came across a BMW M3 which I think had a turbo (looked highly modded and had a boost gauge on the A pillar). We lined up from around 80 and he just punched it. I was considering just leaving it in 5th, but I went ahead and dropped to 4th and took off after him. I took it up to around 125 or so, where I had to brake for cars ahead and I was a few cars ahead at this point. We exchanged thumbs up and went our separate ways. Nice guy and nice car!



I did some more "testing" of the car's performance on lots of unsuspecting people and it was making me laugh how fast the car was!



Thank god spring is coming!!!!!!!

yes I can't wait for spring, good kill, most likely supercharged. What are your mods?

1Revvin7,



Yeah, you're right it could have been a super too. It was loud and I could hear a whine...



I've got a T04S single turbo running around 14-15 PSI, full exhaust, intercooler, PowerFC, etc.

oh nice, yeah you've got some nice toyz, didn't happen to see a DINAN badge did ya?

Wargasm 02-04-2003 10:27 PM

No I did not notice any badging... I did see the M logo, but I didn't look for anything else. It was silver, lowered, aftermarket exhaust, aftermarket rims I think, clear tail lights and markers...
