I'd like to see the dyno with/without the turbonator. I don't trust them, just like the tornado. I've heard people who lost horsepower after they installed it.

turbonator= 50whp

[Mapdash]

btw nukka those wheels are sick. Purpose driven....light as hell.

They look a bit small in the wheel well but whatever.

oh and you know im a sucker for bronze on white.

I still don't think it is actually doing anything for your car. The only real way to test it would be a dyno run, if you just THINK that it is working then you can be confusing yourself. If anything it is just reducing the airflow and decreasing your horsepower.

Go get a Dyno test and post the before/after results, then I will believe you. And your telling me a 35 dollar product off of some random website will yield about as much power as a supercharger that cost about 3 grand? So far every single review I have read says it doesn't do anything or decreases horsepower.

Im going to wrap the wheels with 245/45/17 Kumho Ecsta MX, it should look pretty beefy and fill the wheel wells a little better.

[Mapdash]

before the Mk1 Golf..the term "hot hatch" didn't exist.

that was then...nowadays it takes something special to run with the pack...or ahead of it, so there's some work done to make it a little quicker.

i bought it for $2,000 cash 2 years ago and still havent hit 100mph, but I swear to christ the thing will outrun a LOT of cars in the canyons. straight lines are easy anyway. I'm waiting for the sale of my jeep to have some real flow to dump into it...my Govt check is gonna pay for some coilovers so that will be nice

[Graffx]

Here's my old whip:




2003 Torch Red Mach 1 Mustang. Blackouts on back and front. Rear Window louvres. I had 4" Borla Stingers on it which gave it a great, classic roar. Did a K&N Drop in filter. Was going to get a midpipe until my plans got cut short and was forced to sell the car to help the family. Almost a year since I've been without it and boy do I miss the rwhp

[Islandboy]

Anybody have any good online sites they use for parts - replacement and performance, or either? Really just browsing for now, but shit is like 2x the price here so I'm looking online.
