What have you done to your MSP today?

[nvmsp]

Private, $8500, put it out for $9000 had a buyer in a day... I guess I should have tried for more...

I wouldnt have expected more than $8,000-$9,000 from a dealer. Private maybe you coulda got $10k for it. but that's still not bad.

I say buy a civic for now and start stacking some money. Thats what ima do ,if I ever sell mine. it'll be a civic I know about or my friend knows, not just gonna go buy any civic from anywhere.

she got a wash today!! The block (city street) is getting resurfaced so I kinda let it build up. It was pointless to wash it then have it full of dust 10 minutes later. I'll be keeping her in the alley for the rest of the day. LOL.

Tell me about it. I work security, now I'm at this construction site while they finish building this veterans hospital. Let's just say theres no point in washing my car until I leave this post.

even still it's not good for the paint to leave it dirty for tooo long

today i spit on my msp...it's been over a month and the bastard still isn't up and running...i HATE waiting on other people...still no exhaust mani...it's paid for, steed speed said it had been sent for coating, no turbo (all i asked for was pics so i could send payment...thanks kooldino)

Wow dude, chill out and grow up. First of all, it wasn't my turbo, so I was doing all of this as a favor to you and mike since I had it in storage.

Second of all, I explained from day one that it was a REALLY bad time and that it was going to take me at least a week to get to it.

Anyway, I'm guessing you have it in your hands by now, but you're probably still waiting on other parts from other people. Try not to misdirect your anger and expel any more bodily fluids on your car in the meantime.

i drove my car for the first time in almost 2 months today. it just sat in the driveway after the fmic install, finally got everything back together. the weather here blows right now, prolly gonna take it out monday to see how it feels with the fmic. while it was down i also installed the rr racing front mm inserts. the vibration at idle is pretty bad, but the wheelhop seems to be gone, so its all good.

and i finally got my diploma in the mail today. im all giddy like a 5 year old girl

My old truck was an F-150, I used to get around 15 mostly country driving, I was down to 13 though. The new truck is a 03 Dodge Ram 3500srw, with a Cummins and a 5spd, crew cab short bed Laramie. Fully loaded with stuff I didn't know you could get in trucks. I was thinking I wanted an 05 (I don't like the 06-current) but this truck is pretty much spotless, and a unicorn...

Nice any pics? You would be surprised at what you can find in a truck my man.

they work fine for me no need to spend 700 on a steed speed mani for 10hp. kinda stupid lol

 

[magnumP5]

they work fine for me no need to spend 700 on a steed speed mani for 10hp. kinda stupid lol

...or $900 on a MAM manifold, right? (nervous)

 

[2.0t03speed]

yea lol kinda realize now instead of just buying boltons that dont really add alot of hp i shoudl of just got a bigger turbo from the start

 

[2.0t03speed]

could of eliminated my thunder mani, and 626 mani lol and just paid for the 28

 

[SeR_Cyclops]

could of eliminated my thunder mani, and 626 mani lol and just paid for the 28

thats true, they will give you the same power as the 28, BUT with those mods and the 28 you will see more gains with the 28. so its like supporting mods for your turbo!

 

[2.0t03speed]

yea but are they really worth it. for the price tag

 

[neox.286]

that would depend on your power range goal lol

if you want like 250+ whp then yea, if you just want a nice daily driver that pulls pretty damn good (like 200-220 whp) then no lol

 

[2.0t03speed]

hmmm i guess thats why jdm sam is still on the stock manifold with the 3071? Im keepin my stock mani on till it cracks then ill eather get another one or shovel out the money for the steedspeed =/

 

[neox.286]

I like my steedspeed, the turnaround time isn't the best but its a great piece and looks good

as for gains, I honestly have no before to compare with because when I had last driven the stocker and the steedspeed was about 10 months of down time haha

if you aren't looking to set huge numbers the stock manifold is TOTALLY fine....I'd recommend a downpipe/midpipe for the t28 cause it flows a lot better but the stock manifold is not bad for the t28
