Quoting turbowop:
Why would you even tune a 35r for such low boost? What's the point of such a turbo if you're only going to run stock boost levels? I think the lowest I would tune one for is 20psi and then tune for 30+psi with meth/e85/racegas.
I think somebody got in over their head. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/uhh.gif
It's the new age of DSM/GVR4 builder. 16Gs, 50 trims, 20Gs, and aren't big enough these days. You need at least a 35R to be bad ass. Of course a built motor, good trans, proper fuel system, those will all come a little down the road but for not I got a "35R powered car."

Well after looking over that thread I'd say you have no excuse for not turning it up to AT LEAST 20psi. I understand if you want to wait and do it on the dyno where you can properly tune it...just don't be surprised when you get beat by a honda in the mean time.

OMG. I didn't know he was serious. I thought he was just trolling to get a stir out of some people. This is really sad.

"at least i dont drive a honda"
"at least i dont drive a honda"
Maybe the Honda did an oil change before he raced you?

35r on a built motor should be able to run 30psi all day on 93 pump gas, you are giving away 150 whp or so by running 13psi which is laughable.

Haha don't generalize too much. I have my fuel system, link and all that other good stuff all figured out and I'm only going to upgrade my turbo to a 16g when all that is maxed out. If anything it's the fact that people have money to burn because they got one of the few gvr4's that was reliable when they bought it. I had to put 2k in my car when I got it to get it where I wanted it and it's completely stock.

Driver error, or a bullshit post. My buddy has a b18 swapped del sol with a t3t4 setup, and the only thing he sees the whole way is my 91 tails and my ass hunkering when we get it.
+1 on the boost levels on that big boy....LAME!

^Sooooooo at what point in the video did either car go full throttle. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
Sorry, nothing personal, I had to do it. The start of this post has me laughing my ass off and needed someone to take it out on. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Vtak Technologies is no joke for a 35r on 13psi.

Hondas are fast. yea I said it. The import aftermarket was partially built with Honda technology in mind. Oh the Uncle remembers back in the early 90s when I had my pumped Datsun 240z, I could beat any Mustang or Camaro that came my way. One day at a stop light there was a buzzin in my ear, it was a green Honda hatch, it had roll bars inside and the guy was looking over at me smirking with this grin on his face that said "come on Uncle Ben lets see what you got" Light turns green the Uncles like ah yea his a$$ is mines, I go to grab second and the Civic is pulling away on my built 240z. The gent pulled over and told me that my car was pretty nice. I asked him what he had in his civic, he popped the hood and it was turbo. From that point on I never dissed the Honda's again. There is a guy that lives here in Antioch that drives his on the streets, the license plate reads RUNS9S and it does. Im just sayin...
