I was really close to keeping up with the GLI myself. A couple pulls felt like it really came down to spool.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Me and fatty were pretty close, I just need to get used to shifting that thing, I bounced 2nd off redline because it was over so quick. Weird because the rest of the gears seem pretty long.

Anyway, good times.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Yes yes boys, being almost as fast as my wife's car....very impressive! ;) Spaz needs more mods. Peter, where were you shifting at? 5500-5800 seems ideal for me.


Heh ya I saw you spit flames a few times. Prolly gonna have to frumroll with the evo sometime for grins :D Speaking of grins I had a really good time doing all this testing & comparing last night, I could not stop laughing!

It was fun! haha Yea I know my car is not a race car, but it gets me everywhere, and doesnt leak coolant. :P haha

I was shifting close to redline, def felt power was down by the time I got up there. Torque really drops up top. I missed third the last time we ran em and shut it down.

Ya check the plots on that thing from teh spring dyno day:

Def seems like 6000 is about where to shift.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

LOL!

Awesome. I guess it really does have a straight through exhaust with gutted cats. I want to ride behind the car sometime and see the flames and hear it. It's really quiet inside the car.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Should be interesting to see the difference in dyno charts once I throw it on the dyno. Im spiking to 24psi and dropping to 19 it seems.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Geez! Poor little K03! Start saving to replace it :D However, I hear the K04's actually make more power on these cars. APR makes a kit, I bet its real cheap :D

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Haha! Yea im probably going to switch to the stock program for most daily driving, and switch back when I want.

The stage 3 turbo kit is like 4k and puts down 350. That would be fun! Im not gettting carried away.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Stock programming....LOL yea right!

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I know I need more mods. What'll make a bigger difference will be when I can fix my alleged boost leak (or whatever is causing my slow spool).

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

You guys need to stay out later, so I may make this event..arg.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Do want Porky's. Anyone care to make it 7pm?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Make it later! So i may go!

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

How about we split the difference and call it 7:30?

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

Sounds good to me.

Re: Old Chicago - every Weds @ 8pm in Plymouth
 

I'll be there, probably with Emily, my sister, and her friend.
