I thought that you want the least backpressure possible on a turbo engine? ... and that it was N/A motors that you gotta play around with to get the most power?

So, was the exhaust the only change you made? Or did you also change to some other turbo, a 2g mas and a new intercooler setup?

Is it already fixed?

Be more clear if you expect any help.

Bro...(4drwhore) Let me clear this one up for you... Shep's car isn't weak... yes it is fast.. I was disappointed that he used spray thats all... I wanted him to get there witout spray. I like sheps cars... and I respect him a great deal... I did only change the exhaust and Yes It ran like shit... (why) thats why Im on here... It made no fucking sense...

About the stock IC... I think that it is most of my troubles right now... ITs too small.

I don't think shep has ever not ran spray. I think he did like 4 years ago... If you like all boost cars check out jesus's eclipse. There just comes a time in a full body pretty much street car that you have to use spray to get into the next level. And Shep is at the top of that level.

he didnt say he didnt spray, he said he never didnt. I dont think its proper english, but u can still tell what hes saying. And there is nothing wrong with adding nitrous to an already bad ass car.

Goddamn it. It is the FASTEST AWD DSM in the WORLD EVER.

Where is the fucking descrepancy?

He has run 8.70 @ 165.9
8.80 on DOT tires

The fastest DSM non nos is 9.20 @ 155

Big fucking difference.

Give up on picking apart Shep. You think you can do it, think again.

BTW, adding a 3" exhaust generally leans out your car and requires a re-tune.

The fastest DSM no nitrous was Jesus. He hasn't even gotten a chance to crack the bottle open yet. It is also a full weight and interior car. They tried spraying it once but it was untuned and rich so it just sputtered down the track. Jesus says he will be looking for 170mph out of the car once they spray it. Like I said before, there comes a time in a dsm's life where you cant go to the next level without nitrous
