alright sounds fine with me, although if you beat juker with intake and headers... i only got intake...ull prob rape me. BTW have you raced stu...what was the outcome? With my g/f in the car and me...stu had about a 130 lb weight advantage when we went 65-110 and he had me by a car....that was stock.

Before this kid would pull 2 cars on me before I even tach out 2nd. $hit I remember the days when we would run neck and neck all the way to 115, remember that run .

Now after I installed my Stones it is very close. I will admit that he still pulls but at 80 he is only 1/2 a car.

FK u J, I know that ur gonna go out now and tell everyone how u pull mad cars on me :P .

I've still got to let my ECU recognize the new headers but so far a 17 WHP bump.

Come on I had to give the kid a chance.

Funny that u mention that. We talked about it and both came to this conclusion: I can invite JHEIII to my house, have him park his car in my driveway, go to my car, flip on my nitrous switch, then switch it off, get out of my car, and tell him "good race" .

All without moving a foot.

But what if there is another problem; you wouldn't know that a new code had been set.

those 850 turbos are fun cars. My cousin had one but eventually blew it up. No mods just an old car that he didn't know how to take care of.

Give it some time. I'm pretty sure that its gonna go soon. There is no piece of machinery that can hold up to the $hit that JHEIII give it :P .

oh, ya... we raced again today... I pulled harder and harder as the speeds went up, from 0 - 110 I had a good 2 1/2 cars (we think there is an exhaust leak on juker's car) or at least he wants to think that :p

what does an exhaust leak do, and how can you tell. When i give the 850 turbo a run we will see if maybe there is a prob with jukers car.

uh... on a n/a car exhaust leak = less torque, but more power i mean, think if you ran without exhaust, you'd have no backpressure, there goes some torque, but you'd gain hp up top

I can hear that there is an exhaust leak. Its as though the pistons are in the cabin. Its not that loud, but what I am saying is that, that is the sound that I hear. The engine is more prounced.

I can't seem to figure it out. I'd be rolling, 10MPH, punch it, drop into 1st and the FKin tranny would shift me at 5K. Then when 2nd came around it would shift me into 3rd at 6K-6.2K.

U know what it really feels like? It feels like the car is running out of gas. The car would go, then when it would start to bog, it would shift. It feels like it is tring to accelerate but there is incificient fuel.
