Damn D you really know how to put a car through its tests. Thats how you get stuff done. I suppose we should start a list of the parts you put to bed so we can start making stronger ones.
Oh and I updated your name. Thats the one thing I asked to be added to the site.
we’ve all heard the saying that there’s not enough power till it spins the tires going into top gear
well, I think the true measure of torque is ‘there’s not enough torque till you launch it, the front end comes off the ground, and the body twists so much that the driver’s door pops open’
yes. Race scott and whooop his ass and Ill send it out. JK. Ill send it regardless. get me your 032 block information and send that in a E mail and it will go out by the end of the week.
91- saw you asking about a 3" exhaust…and you were mentioning that your car felt 'bottled up.
How about logging 3rd RPMs, then pulling the dps/catback off, then logging 3rd again? Would show if your 2.5 is ‘hurting’ you (although I think we all know that it is to a certain degree). Would be interesting and would give you some time to work on some new swear-words while doing the hardware removal/install
my swear vocabulary is VAAAAST and you all know that lol.
i have my cat-removal and install. down to a science, i can have the hole thing apart is a matter of minutes, no swears really needed here. im going to do some logs for sure tonight and ill start buying pieces to get my 3" cat back made. ill do back to back comparative logs between the two systems and update you all.
in terms of me saying it feels bottled up, the reason why i say that is because for some reason, 80% of gasses come out my left muffler unless i stick an objuect there and direct it to the other, very odd. when i have my buddy drive the car and im behind it, you can even make out most of the noise is coming from that pipe and it sounds so awkward.
absolutely nothing. dont get it. i know for a fact its holding my car back. ill be ordering my exhaust parts tonight when i get out of work. ill put up a post starting to document it all. its going to be a douzy of a catback ill promise you all that lol
doin’t forget that the S4 is very quiet inside because it’s very well built. Outside, your car is a world louder.
Have someone drive it by you WOT in first or second while you stand there with your jaw on the ground. Trust me it’s an eye opener.
p.s. what happened to EuroAddiction? I thought you were one of the faithfuls over there. Last time I checked that site out, if you’re not careful you’ll catch a tumbleweed in the eye. Looks good on them. karma’s a beyatch.
x2, my car just kinda hums from the interior with the windows up and seats not laid down (ski season now, so they are always down lol)… but from the outside its like thunder
