You can break in motors quicker then you think.

Would those Kumho Ecsta fit a 19 inch rim?? And as for being impounded, how did that happen?? If you don't mind me asking
ah they are for 17 inch tires, b/c i still have my stock rims. sorry broski

As for being impounded, well uh...

That suck bro, I wanted to see that bad boy.

Pretty cool story today I was letting my friend drive my car around the Automall (area just full of dealerships) and when he was turning he mashed it and got the attention of a SRT-4. Now he threw a U and chased us. We saw him and he reved hard. At this point I knew its on . I told my friend to switch cause being I'm better with the car(being its mine of course) and looked ahead. No cars either direction being its a back road, so he did a 3 honk from a dig and we went. Now I drive on 10psi and we were even till about mid-late 2nd gear and I started to pull on him. Beat him once I hit 100 by like 4 cars. No thats when I noticed when he pulled up he had MOPAR Stage II upgrades. Then for kicks we went again and I set the boost to 13psi. Results were a huge butt kicking and I loved it!! I was still running rich on 13 psi so I might keep this on the high setting Fun should of seen his face. He couldn't believe a tC gave a SRT-4 the boot.

Nice win! Thanks for the break-in tip! I'll be sure to do it that way when I buy my new car.

Did you get your Unichip retuned? If so at what PSI? You may be taking a big risk at 13PSI. I would keep it under 10PSI. Happy boosting though.

I'm sure the car will be fine cause it is still running rich at 13psi, Turbonetics made the tune real conservative. I know a guy who drags a B18 Honda hatch turbo that pushes out 450 hp. on a stock block @19psi and runs perfect all day long. He has done hundreds of runs and no problems. From my understanding, as long as the A/F curve is good, car will last a good time. I don't really rag on it except for the weekends. Now I don't know if I will go above 13psi being that I don't know how much the stock block can take but didn't ZPI get 19psi out of a stock block? Wonder what this baby can handle up to. If the internals fail, I will be building this motor. Fast!
