    Performance! What to do?

    I agree 110% with you on that one. Its not hard to make a car fast, but it does take time, knowledge and of course some cash here and there- every cars different. And I know what you mean, I dont see a lot of 1gs but see a lot of 2gs and most times I do, its some punk ass kid hearing from...

    help

    agree with everyone else, whats the extra few inches going to do? slam her down... but I guess to answer your question if your not having problems getting into gear, like your not grinding anything I dont see the problem even though Im sure your clutch could most likely burn up faster from...

    Performance! What to do?

    Depends how you look at it... I personally dont taking a car thats not totally ready for boost, building the motor, and cranking out some impressive numbers. Just more satisfying to me I guess when people come up to you ask what you have done, and knowing you did all the work yourself. Granted...

    AC Compressor Turns off/on Sporadically

    with the car off, both high and low side should read pretty close to eachother, and they should be fairly close to the temp outside. Is your compressor kicking on and off really fast? is that what your saying? Or are you saying its staying off to long? If it cycles fast- good possibilty you...

    Strange Issue

    quick easy way to see if that coolant sensor is bad, simply unplug the connector when its running bad and see if it idles bad... but for some reason Im really doubting thats your problem. Never know though! good luck.

    $189 ebay FMIC kits - good or horrible?

    ... Ebay intercoolers, not so much. Seen the welds literally blow out, of course thats under quite a bit of boost, like 25 which you probably wont be seeing but still! Treat your ride like your girl. Give her what she wants and she'll give you what you want.

    Performance! What to do?

    lol, theres a little more to making a dsm fast than that bud... cant run much more than 15lbs on the stock fuel system- Fact is this. I dont give a flying **** what kind of car you drive, you need the supporting QUALITY mods in order to make it work correctly. Sure, you can probably "crank" up...

    Performance! What to do?

    well flipping elf.. good to see another dsm'r. But im going to have to stray from that fact and side with the boys and girls around here. Theres a reason the car comes stock with extremely low boost. Its like turbo'ing a 420a motor and wanting to run 15 lbs of boost- s*** jus aint gonna...

    new to MSPs... but not turbo

    Ok I see where your coming from, but how many of those cars do you actually see on the streets? I can tell you right now the fastest car I know on the streets at least around my area, is a high ten low 11 94 civic hatch with a built h22. Again I understand where your coming from completely...

    new to MSPs... but not turbo

    No, didn't expect this car to come close to my old gsx, but what I was getting at is any car can be made respectable with hard work, vast knowledge of how everything works and not buying a ton of parts- just the ones you need. Of course along with upping the boost and such, tuning becomes HUGE...

    rebuilt kit

    To my knowledge, ebay is a very skeptical place to buy parts. Now I know some of the stuff is a legit deal, alright, so it says garret. It MIGHT be fine but I would do some background check into it, just because when it comes to being so precise its scary. I would feel much better going and...

    Goodbye Mazdaspeed

    sti as with any other awd car is sick. Myself I cant say I am a huge fan of the sti but I'm not the one driving it therefore i dont have to like it. If you find the car is what you like and love then great for you. They are good cars from my knowledge and know a lot of people who have great...

    new to MSPs... but not turbo

    Its what I do lol, like that valvoline commercial, mon- fri i call it work, sat and sunday i call it fun. But no really, the dsms aren't as bad as everyone makes them seem. Granted yes, they have a vast amount of problems, but most times its due to dumbasses trying to go fast and not doing it...
