next track even let's do a drag race :D

I want to see just how much slower 440lbs makes me
Oh I'm pretty sure that you and James make more power than me, actually. You guys got custom dyno tune and stuff, right? I got ESS because they had an off-the-shelf tune for my Akrapovic. I like it for what it is. :)

Cured that damn torque dip from Akrapovic down low. Good nuff. :p

James for sure, but not me

my AA HFC Xpipe makes the lease power out of all the HFC xpipes there are

also, i have stock rear, so that's a 5whp loss there too..

Now this'll be interesting....we have multiple N/A vehicles with all different tunes. James and Sean has OE, I have ESS, and Roy will have Evolve. :D

.4 slower. :rolleyes:... lol, the old addage used to be every 100lbs makes you 1/10 of a second slower in the quarter mile. Don't know how true that is but yeah.

My ONLY engine mod will be the turner test pipes and evolve tune...I'll be running stock exhaust. Plus I'm 6MT compared to you DCT folks :P

TTP are a great power boaster
more than my AA HFC xpipe (now if i ran catless, different story)

what happened to 6MT FTW, and DCT is for pussies, and 6MT is for real men who like to play with sticks?

Let's not talk about that in here. I like this thread and all the people in it. Hate for another good thread to get ruined.

Let's also not get on a OE Tuning v. ESS v. Evolve v. Powerchip in here either. It's cool that everyone has something different and enjoys what they have, and no one has any problems. Let's keep it there. :)

Sorry, I didn't mean for it to get out as a versus thread kind of thing. It was just an observation.

If we want to go to war, we're still technically missing a PowerChip car anyways. And OE Tuning side has too many players. :)

Damn, all ya'll be on steroids, lulz.
what do you guys think of NT05s?

How do you think they compare to RS-3s? AD08s?

they're about $60 cheaper per tire than AD08s

Well, Ben tracks on them and likes them a lot. I think he said he's getting PSS this time around because of the....sidewall....

Either NT05 or NT01, I keep mixing those up. :\
huh?
My friend Ben, he runs either NT05 or NT01, I forget which beacuse I always mix those up, but I think it was NT05. Anyways, he liked the tire, but he says the sidewall is really square.

nt05 dont really have a square sidewall

nt05 and 01's are really different from eachother in terms of overall grip

nt05, rs-3 and ad08 both grip well.

some people say rs3 are better grip and other say ad08...some people swear by nt05's too

what i do know though is ad08's will last much longer than a set of rs-3 for daily and tracking purposes

its worth the extra money to get the ad08s

well how long would the Nt05s last then?

I too have heard that RS-3s die quickly...


What about RE-11s? or Dunlop Star Specs?

(fyi I'm looking now for a possible 18 in sq set up for the APEX group by. I have a buyer for the TE37SLs, he just needs to pull through :P
