...DAMN!

 

talk about REDLINE

geez.... HE HITS IT HARD

man... turbo for me? i dunno any more, you'll hit 130 so fast!!!

beautiful TC though...

very beautiful

 

It's o.k. but I'm not impressed. It still has major traction problems and it dosen't rev-up fast at all. I guess I'm used to my old Eclipse AWD and my new Talon FWD Turbo

 

yea big time traction problems. i like what i saw though. bring da prices.

 

looked like it was an auto tc.

 

im not really sure what u mean by traction problems? i know it has something to do w/ the wheels going/spinning...plz tell me how this has traction problems cuz im prolly gonna get this turbo...thx

 

Nah you can hear him shifting gears. Kinda slow too

 

i thought it was going to be an auto since it posted the hp #'s from tCtunerz at the end of the video and i think they stated their dyno #'s came from an auto....but the vid looks like a 5sp and in other pics of that car it looks like a manual w/leather shift ****...so either the auto and 5sp dyno the same or the car in the video doesn't have the same #'s that are shown at the end...still looks pretty quick.

 

boring video, i expected more of a daytime vid or something along those lines

 

you can hear the wheels spinning through second........this can be fixed. no worries.

 

woa!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

my question is......how come its a stage three and its only pushing 10 psi.....is he not pushing it?

Also...did he shift late...cause everytime he was in first or second...the rev pin just kind of hit the tack and made a f'ed up noise?

please fill me in...thanks!

 

the rev limiter is there to help you, not to impress people with.

 

how do u fix the traciton problems?

 

tires, suspension, motor mounts, weight reduction, driving school.

 

An LSD would be a better solution. Too bad they don't make one yet.

 

that too.

sadly, i doubt we'll see one any time soon.

 

I can tell that most of you guys have never driven a front wheel drive car with alot of power... even though the car is on the limiter, you still have to wait until the car gains more traction before you shift, or else it will bog down in the next gear.

It sounded to me like the driver was on the limiter and feathering the gas to get traction, which like I said is the correct thing to do.

 

well I think it's pretty badass, and if it's the same system I've seen around here in scionlife and tctunerz, it's one hell of a nice looking system, 3in CAI intake and exhaust, header, turbo, intercooler, greddy emanage ecu, injectors, the works and it sounded awesome and mean, like a turbo'd tC with the TRD exhaust, cept without the negative sounding effects of what would happen if you added all that to the TRD borla axelback

but it would really hurt my feelings parting with my tC's warranty, and I'm no mechanic even though I can handle my own, but not sure I'd want to walk that road.... yet....

keep up the great work guys, I'm lovin every minute of it

boy what I wouldn't do for a 300hp tC... and I had my goals set at 250 *trying* to stay under warranty.... decisions, decisions....

 

LSD would be nice but working on the suspension and how its balanced can correct alot of that problem by putting the power down to both wheels. An LSD just adds to the available traction but it should be look at as part of the system needed to put the power down.

Neon SRT-4 in 2003 didn't have a LSD, does in '04 and '05. But that didn't have a dramatic improvement in how the car did in the 1/4, it was still capable of high 13's dead stock no matter what model year.

You have to learn how to drive the car as well, a large displacement engine with a turbo creates alot of torque...
