I'm on stiff as hell track coils with little rebound so it's actually not that bad. Get some angle going on the driveways and speedbumps and it's perfectly fine, heh.

Dude, don't sell your CR...I love CR's and AP1/2's in general. Soooo fun to drive.

Thanks. :) Yeah, I'm definitely planning on modding the Fit. Been spending all my time on these forums the past few days trying to learn about the platform.

Yea, I'm leaning towards a GD at this point...seems like they have more boost options. *cough cough* I think I like the body styling better too.

Haha yeah I'm going to have to agree with this guy. Tastefully modded Evo. Get a GD! Not to mention modding the fit will be hella cheaper compared to the Mitsu! lol

Well...assuming I get a Fit sometime soon...

- Stripping interior, welding in my cage
- Installing Varis front bumper with lip, undertray/diffuser and canards
- Installing Esprit GT Track-Spec wing
- Installing Cosworth Cams
- Installing meth injection
- Retune to hopefully get up to around 480-500 whp on Map 1

After that...time to hit the track again and start working out all the kinks allll over again!

evos are for cheaters!

The Dom 2 is alright. The spool up is only about 500-600 rpms slower than stock...if that, so it's not incredibly noticeable. It's a good road race/track turbo but not really suited for the street in my opinion, especially for those people that just want big numbers and go fast in a straight line. It depends a lot on how you tune it too I guess but the turbo itself just isn't that big. I'm thinking of swapping mine out for a Tomei unit in the near future.

There's actually one e85 pump that's pretty close to me but the rest are about 50 miles away, unfortunately. :(

I've dynoed on a few different dynos before and the number I usually go with is the Mustang Dyno since it reads the lowest. When I dyno on DYNOmite or Dynojet, I see a 10-15% increase in numbers but I usually just try to go with before and after numbers since that's all that matters anyways. I care more about how the graph reads than the actual number at the end.

And yes...Evo's are for cheaters, haha. :D I think any stock boosted car falls under that category.

First of all, very nice Evo X. Clean and to the point. No bullshit.

Secondly, is this in Rancho Bernardo? Looks like the same street my uncle lives on.
