There will be a lot of responses, but unless you're talking gear matching for the drag strip, it will just come down to personal preference. You might even change a few times. In my '03 Mach 1 I had the stock 3.55, 4.10, and 4.56 and loved the 4.56. In my current turbo '04 I have 4.10...
The faster the tires are spinning, the less control you have of the vehicle, and the more likely you are going to start going sideways and become a meme.
There was a 928 available locally for a few hundred bucks, with a great body and most of the interior. I really wanted it for a swap project. A 2.5L turbo Duratec at around 450whp was on my mind, but I had just bought my turbo Mach 1 project. I'd still like to build one someday. I also need to...
While I'm not a crossfitter, it's hard to argue with the results. They have some of the best bodies next to gymnasts and bodybuilders.
It's also difficult to argue "better for your health", because let's be honest, very few of us are doing any of this for our "health". Most folks just want to...
I seem to be backwards from other people. Biking beats up my knees, and so does a treadmill. Pavement or dirt is ideal. Concrete always sucks.
Keep up the hard work. At nearly 50, you're putting a lot of 20-somethings to shame!
I try to live by this:
Saturday was my farthest run of 16.6 miles at a 8:52 pace. Yesterday was hill repeats and a 4 mile progressive pace run (7:45 to 7:00).
Running is by far the most challenging sport I've taken up. I've spent most of my life in the gym lifting weights, so the transition was a difficult process...
Can you point me to exactly which S400SX4 you're referring to? I can't find one that is not a T6. The S480 (125 lb/min) and S482 (130 lb/min) would give you more headroom, and you could spool them with that transbrake.
Here is a compressor map which I added the 369 to in order to make my...
Love my S369SXE. Haven't dyno'd or had to the track since swapping from a PTE 7675, but it pulls just as hard as that Precision and spools at a lower rpm. I wouldn't expect more than 800-850whp out of it, though.
I've only had to travel to cali for work, but every time I think of this song. Beautiful, but also my first introduction to smog.
I'm also locked into my state for the moment due to family. WV's economy is getting worse all the time. I figure once both kids are in college we'll leave the state...
Yes mine is dumped, and it's certainly loud when it opens. With the regular Magnaflows it goes from surprisingly quiet to stupid loud all at once without much in between. Of course I doubt you'll be hitting 18psi around town, especially with that 7675, so I wouldn't worry at all about noise...
I have a turbo Mach 1 with (most of) a hellion kit. I swapped out the Precision for a Borg Warner and made a few other tweaks.
It would also overboost due to poorly cut wastegate hole. The wastegate is 46mm, but the hole was only 30mm. After reaming it out it stopped overboosting. The bov...
Downloaded all my photos from PB and signed up for a Flickr account. 1TB of free storage sounds good to me. Looks like they have the same features as PB. I like using the unique email address to email photos to my account rather than downloading an app on my phone.
