First time against a gasser.
« on: November 06, 2008, 10:56:44 am »
So last night im driving in my AAZ MKIII golf to my buddies house to pick up my compressor....when I stop at a red light and there is a young kid with his girlfriend sitting in a hyundai accent.....it seemed to me they were laughint at my car. (Im not surpirised since I bought it for $200, it is a little beat up and 2 colours.) Anyways light turns green I take off driving normal.....then I heard the accent sqealing its tires as it passes me.....well something clicked and all of a sudden im trying to catch this kid.......by the end of first he was one car length in front of me....I shift into second....tires sqeal....start catching up really fast.....by mid third I was one car length in front of him.....and he was stuck in a very thick and black cloud of smoke!!!!!  :D

Its done up alright.....running 30lbs from a T3.
This weekend im working on a 2.5inch downpipe for it along with a side exit exhaust (straight pipe)....not sure ifs its gonna be side exit 100% yet.....but I think so. And then I want to install the srt-4 intercooler I have with but I need to modify the endtanks.

There arent that many mods.....rebuilt head with a little home porting. The motor itself has about 400k kms. I have a stronger clutch as the stock one was slipping at about 17psi. The fuel is turned up a tad, and a 2.5inch intake with a green cone air filter. Im working on exhaust and intercooler in the upcomming days. I also have a self ground boost pin.

Im running a 8v clutch disk and a 16v pressure plate. It seems to be holding great and from what I recall it was a fraction of the origianl clutch. I think the set up cost me just over $100 bucks....maybe 120 or something like that. I would have to dig up my receipts.

Well it looks like exhaust is getting done sooner than I thought.  The stock one fell off today.

Any recommendations on what I should do....I know im doing 2.5 inch downpipe.....but I dont know if I should do side exit cause of the smoke......the car will be covered in it.

it's for sale! it would go real nice in your collection down there but the steering wheel is on the wrong side for you but i don't think you would mind that? just like i would not mind a right hand drive caddy either!
