Killed a fixed up Neon

Dont know what kind it was but it must have been fixed up because I only had a little over a half cars length on him and was slightly pulling.
I was on the freeway and saw this chump pulling up fast behind me and I could tell it was a Neon by the lights. I was hoping it was an SRT but it wasnt. Anyways I out hussled him on the Fwy and got off at my exit and he came the same way. We both rolled up to a red light, him still behind me, turned left and hit a straight away and another light just about to turn green. He poped into the lane on my right and was almost even with me. I was slowing down pretty fast so I wouldnt run through the red. Well it turned green and he had a little more momentum still so he got a good jump on it but I was in second and floored it. Damn the Injen CAI sounds good, I easily swept past him but he was keeping up with my rear tire fairly well for a POS neon. We came up to a light that I had to turn right at so I pushed my baby as hard as it could go but some slow ass chump was in front of me and I had to let the neon pass in order to make my turn, which happened to be the neons turn too, WTF?, anyway he was going really slow so I came around his left side and didnt wait for his ass to try and jump it I just boned out and let him read the mazdaspeed badge on the backend of my car. Tomorrow I kick her up to 10psi. Hopefully I see this dude again and he wont be so fortuante to hold so close to my back end.
 
hey, jack nice kill. you aren't having any voltage problems with the udp? sub still sounds nice, lights don't flicker, sound isn't weak, etc?
 
I bump my system all the time, even in idle and I dont have any problems. The lights dont dim, not noticable at least. The one thing I have noticed is when I am idling to cool down the car and the fan comes on, if I turn off my headlights the fan gets louder, basicly its getting more power, so there are some minor fluxes but its nothing too noticable or serious. It was well worth the gains.
 
cool, now i might consider getting one. i was always worried that the alternator won't turn right. thats the case with other pullys (alt pully, water pump). they messup the alternator spinning.
 
hey redemption i just put my pulley on last weekend and it is sort of cold up here in the u.p. cuz i am off at school. I live in southern michigan. Anyway, my pulleys squeak like none other when i first start my car, and they keep squeaking for a while until i warm them up...did you have this problem.....like i am affraid to drive my car, cuz people like stare at my squeaking car.....any advice??
 
If it was SRT...then straight line you will go down....

Our cars were designed for real driving on curvy country roads..the srt would be left off the side of the road

like the Rush song red barchetta....
 
mine squued like a mother fuka when I got it on, its because the belts strech, dont get new ones, they will strech too, just tighten them
