Re: wish i had a 3kvr4 :(

I am with Aaron, I think driver skill will take care of the launch problem. I ran my 11.5 without a stutterbox with a turbo at least as laggy as yours. I don't think you are launching high enough, you should be about 5,500 rpm when you start to launch.

O I can promise you I'm not very good at launching. That wasn't the question at all. My limiter is set at 5000 when I launch and again, I'm waiting to hook up my laptop and play with that setting. As far as racing and losing, well I may have won and I may have lost. The point is, we didn't race. I don't go around street racing on public streets like some people. If I do race, we go to side streets or specific places where there are no people or cars.

Congrats o your 11.5

Re: wish i had a 3kvr4 :(

That is just my opinion, please don't be upset, i mean i just took from your previous posts in this thread. Plus you seemed to have an answer for everyone, so i just gave the most honest answer that was in everyone's head, i am usually honest and up front enough to say it.
But hey if you wanna question my credibility on driving you know where i am.
Good luck with your problems and also check out DSMlink.com/wiki for more help on hooking up your dsmlink to a mac system.

Not angry. I was just mildly venting about turbo lag. I know that "in the end" I would have won if we did race. But like I've been saying, I just don't like always coming from behind lol (maybe that's my fault, maybe it's not idk). But what is this about questioning your credibility on driving? You work on cars, you don't race em. I fill ink cartridges, but don't ask me about printers. If I have a question retaining to working on cars I'll let you know!
-good day

Re: wish i had a 3kvr4 :(

Eh thought I'd bring this thread back before it's totally dead. I did a boost leak test. One line from my mbc to my turbo was pretty chewed up in one spot so that was leaking, and my tb gasket is shot. I've got a new line on and a new gasket to come. After fixing the line, the turbo is still just as laggy or even more. But I can't be too sure considering we played with the mbc a little. I'll put the new gasket in and do another boost leak test just to make sure.
