Hey spy, yours isn't the only GS-T that builds insane amounts of boost at low rpms..
My baby gets full boost, (right now its set at 10..stock BCS) right around 2700rpm's...and she pulls to redline like no tomorrow...mind you this is still on the 14b.. I just received my intake pipe and I can't wait to see what type of difference it makes..im sure it will only help.. Hey you know what, Im calling you out. Thats right. The next time I come down south, I want to run the FFGS-T and IF I beat you, then the title of the factory freak GS-T will officially belong to me. Im going to be making a trip sometime this summer to pick up my leather seats from Travis at KOUmotorsports..how for are you from there? Maybe we could setup a race from a 35-40mph roll..hows that sound? Nomie |

Scared? Yes I am. Scared that this thing has sno-balled out of proportion and I've gone too far with it. Too many mods and all it does now is break when I try to push it.
That and I'm young. Too young to be spending all this time on one car for the next five years. I want something different just to be different and have a variety of vehicles while I'm young enough to do it. That is, before I become an old fart with a child or two like some of you old farts!! So Yes Mitsu, it will be Non-DSM for this one. Maybe I'll come back to them maybe not. But I will guarantee that if I do it'll be in nothing less than an EVO, but that's a few years down the road. BTW, the FFGST is freakisly fast for a 14B car!!! It's the only car I've ever known to spin the tires while going downhill at a steep decent!!!!! Goats, Golfballs, and Freaks, this next one should prove to be slower but more reliable. Mods will be kept to a minimum (intake/exhaust/suspension) and everything else will be stock. Something I can drive more than 30 days in 3 years!!! -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

QUOTE The car builds 20 psi by 2500rpm... It will throw you in the seat and keep you there. ^^This part I can vouch for personally! The butt dyno says it's faster than my car from a roll. Who knows from a stop. -------------------- "I hear he tunes the space shuttle also...and that thing is fast"

Lowered sale price. Get it gone or I'm parting it. Nomie, this would be an easy ticket to beat Spy. All it needs is a good tune and you're there.

Ouch..I asked for more than I could chew..
I have a FWD, so its going to be definitely from a roll..35 or 40mph sounds good... I was pressure testing my car and found a huge leak at my dejon J-Pipe that I purchased from a friend of mine and I also have two small leaks on the throttle body..BISS screw and the TPS sensor..I haven't gotten a chance to check the injectors, intake manifold, etc...but im working on it. I will be heading down to Travis' possibly next month?? Im in the process of moving right now so things are a little tied up...this is finals week as well..lol But here is the big question, Spy, how far are you from Travis' shop? Im already going to kill about 2.5-3 hours coming down there so if we could meet at the shop, hang out, etc..it would be easier for me. Each time I come down, Travis and I chit chat endlessly..it would be nice to have you along as well Keep in mind that this is all in fun..Oh yea im going to bring a video camera as well.. Talk to you soon, Nomie |

Mine's doing the same thing. Run the signal line directly to the wastegate and it sees 18psi. I can't explain it.
