    -10AN or 1/2" lines

    AN fittings for the most part cut the hose up on the insertion point. The braid acts as a compression material to help in that. No braid and the likely hood of blowing a line goes up significantly.

    S2 Now makes Carbon doors :)

    must be 8 point minimum. Anything else is an excersice in a failure in geometry. I love how people talk about weight reduction yet we have yet to see any SERIOUS power out of these motors yet. oh well I still think it is a silly idea if the intrusion bar/crash beam is not there. I don't...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    well then thank your lucky star I am not the one prosecuting the case ;) It is not that hard to look up any of the information you mentioned when we know (thanks to EPA) what the stock OEM noise values (noise pollution is under their umbrella) are. btw don't forget just like a cop can...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    umm ok last time. 316.293(5a) is seperate from the rest. No noise has to happen just an observation of the exhaust being modified from OEM. Not that difficult if the car has a honking 4 inch hole in the muffler :) Noise is relevant to sub 2 which is independant from sub 5a.Two seperate...

    GT45 turbo?

    Simple because after HKS did there magic. No one. Incase you missed it here it is one more time. NO ONE has been able to replicate that feat. 10 years after the fact mind you. I know these motors CAN do it. But I have yet to see anyone flip the coin to do it. HP is not cheap...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    negative I posted without reading the very statute I posted. 316.293 is inclusive of both noise and muffler modification. when they cite you they do not throw the entire statute your way. They are specific. 316.293(2) or 316.293(5a) 316.293(5b) they will "itemize" what the infractions...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    well if i were to take Ideals post at face value. Then we have idiots that pass arbitrary grey laws just for the sake off killing trees. Ideal what exactly was the statue they gave you the citation? If it was a noise violation, then your court apperance had ZERO to do with...

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    wrong answer see the statue i posted 316.293(5a& 5b) broken by making it louder than OEM. This means that anything BUT OEM is a money making machine for the state. And you Florida boys thought the tourist would support the state budget! HAHAHA!!

    Modified Exhaust laws? I don't understand!

    If I recall correctly florida statute on exhaust is as follows 403.061 does not identify specifically what the noise limits are. 316.293 on the otherhand specifically does. There you have it on 5a and b. In Florida, regardless if he didn't nail you to the floor, he can nab you on...

    Large Garret Turbos?

    Nick M is right there is a diff between diesel app and gas app. Basically the very thing that kills turbos. HEAT gasoline engines run a hell of alot hotter than diesel engine will. This makes the EGT go up and the resulting temps make the turbo not live as long. Yes including diesel...

    D2 coilovers

    sorry dude. to get pre-load correct you need to know the exact force that is being exherted when pre-loaded. No guessing is allowed. That means specific measurements of the spring rate from zero load to x+(n-1). Anything else is just a quandary in futility. once that is dialed in regardless...

    D2 coilovers

    Coilovers are just like any race specific part. Not everyone should own a coilover and some that do... shouldn't. People seem to think that coilovers are install and drive which is farthest from the truth as was evident with the pre-load guy. But ehre is the thing with pre-load...
