In the future, I would get used to this view:

I think you guys are getting me all wrong. I'm not all dsm's are God's car and will crush the world. But when I see a bunch of ricers at the track reving their motors so everyone can hear their bov's while they are sitting 50cars back in the staging lanes makes me start to hate these cars/owners. I think alot of you know what I'm talking about. Then they go run a 13.x something at 100+ mph and they think they are god. Fuck there is a mazda 323 at our track that runs 105mph with him driving and he weighs 300lbs. Just because you can race people from a roll and beat stock cars or slightly modded cars doesn't mean shit to me. You wanna race and complain about traction? Fine lets race from 0-160mph, alot of supra's agree to races like that. Alot of the skittles technology came from dsm's so I don't see why they try to even knock them to start out with. Everyone complains about how dsm's break. DUH WTF, your putting 350-400+ hp to all 4 wheels that puts a strain on metal and it breaks. That's like puting 700 hp to the rear wheels of a car on slicks and expect nothing to happen. Who cares about dyno numbers or blah blah blah. Where I come from and my thoughts are, run what you brung, bring it on the street and dont ask me about giving you the hit or go from a roll, that's for pussies. If you can't put it down on the street, it's worthless to me.

And for the trannies. So what, go buy a tre or shep, add 2k to the amount you have spend on your car and you will still go as fast if not faster for half the price and then you dont have to worry about the stock shitty ass tranny giving out on you.

The thing is, i bet that "Butt ugly" car(to you) will run all over that skittle at the track or at the street. And one thing I don't think I'll ever have to see is that view. I have already crushed quite a few 12 second skittles in my town from a dig and roll, seems I cant find anymore to eat. damn they were tasty also.

PSI Motorsports is working on a multi boost program to help with the traction issues. Their test car is currently running like:
17-19 1st
20-22 2nd
23-25 3rd
etc...

I am guessing their car will be the first in the 10's this year. They are testing new TB's and intakes right now.

I agree...
If they were RWD they would be a god send!
What do you mean testing? FWD dsm and turbo imports have been using multi boost programs forever. What do you think one of the reasons aem ems was made for. Hell you can also make a dual stage boost controller out of grainger shit for 25 bucks and have it just run 10lbs 1st gear and when you shift to 2nd you run 18 or whatever. BTW whats the most boost a skittle has ever seen stock motor?

I do not pretend to know all the piggyback systems or their applications, I just know it is an issue from LONG TIME tuners. It suprises me how many of them (SRT-4 owners) have DSMs, Supras, LS1/6's.

42 lbs on Steves car, for about a week, till he let it lean out and POP!

Eh to each his own. And the whole car is jdm, 1 of 3000 imported from japan. So don't think we just throw jdm shit on it to be apart of the fad.
