Are u being funny? What is a lb of boost?

kaih

Boost is measured in PSI which means pounds per square inch so I typed in pounds. I would have been more clear if I typed psi but I didn't. At my work I deal with pressure levels in equipment and we use the term pounds when we talk about it.

Ice Man

Yeah that would have made more sense to me if you used psi. I sitting here think lbs of boost? It made me think that boost was an tangable object. So with that said 1 boost = how many psi or is boost just measured in psi like acceleration is measured in m/s^2?

Here's a decent explanation of boost.

wow 03ssmtl-s those are some half *ssed comments, but was very enjoyable to read. Even though you know exactly his situation you still decide to go further and further away from what kind of answers he's seeking. The brutely truth is acknowledged, but definitely not appreaciated. The whole time machine bit HAHA and its a slow process; some people just aren't made out of money to whip out a S out their *Ss or use their magic wand to change their car into something its not. This is not to slam anyone.... i just came across the thread and it was a enjoyable read. thanks more power to you TL-P!

ok, i can't understand why some ppl are such dicks. CalvinsBlkTL, i kno exactly what 03ssmtl-s was thinking...it makes more sense to get a type-s and start out at 260hp and performance mod ur car rather than starting out at 225 hp and modding it, im pretty sure thats what he was getting at, and if u weren't trying to slam neone, u wouldn't have mentioned names.

and Ice Man, try and calm down. "Are u being funny? What is a lb of boost?" don't attack everyone. Most people think it makes sense to start performance modding a car with the fastest model available, but i can understand u've put alot into ur tl-p and dont wanna trade it, i've done the same and I wouldn't trade mine either, too many good times.

I think the main reason is it costs 4500 dollars. I'm actually surprised by the numbers kaih says would result from the boost levels. If thats actually the case, I would consider an S/C for my car, except its been crashed 3 times prior to me getting it so i myself think it'd be a waste. I plan to drive it till it dies and then get something with alot of power that i can really work on.

Ice Man

Yes, I am a much calmer being these days. I re-read my post and I do come off as hot headed. What a dif a year makes. It was just frustrating having someone tell you to buy another car after you just bought one. Oh well, its still all good.
