    they only allow passing in 2 places in the event i was at, and most other events are the same. passing on the rear staight is possible but you need the power to do it and the other driver to know you are going, there is no since in pushing it and risk ruining turn 10 and getting the wall

      Ya I plan on getting dif. brakes but those tire handle good and it was well worth it from what it sounds??? At the auto-x's your car seemed to handle very well. I'm sure that you saw me I was in the baby blue porsche 914 (lookes like a barbie car) if it had more power it would be great. It handles awesome but doesn't have the power to GO!!!! LOL

        I had RT-615's on my car as well, and I don't think i'd ever go with another tire after having them. They gripped great, could pretty much dump the clutch and it would hook up, where as other tires i've had just sat and spun. They have lasted quite awhile, considering my car wears on tires pretty bad. I would definately recommend them, they work great for all around driving, street and track, and i've never heard anyone complain about them.

            ^have to correct you on one thing. DO NOT use them on the drag strip. your just going to burn them up.

            also, being FWD and a DSM doesnt allow for that large of tires, i think, you well have traction problems when you have a modded turbo setup.

            My car handles pretty good. I have some understeer to correct. and need some more seat time.

                    my turbo works just fine for auto-xing. it just spools funky.

                    I know exactly what you are saying. if i had a much smaller turbo it would be better.

                    I just have some crazy ideas in my head

                          I love my turbo. and how it reacts. But i wish it was a bit differant in cetain ways. you know what I am saying.

                          my car is just differant from other ka-t. i spool my gt32 like 3-400 rpms before any other people do.

                            we will see where i spool my gt3076r by, i'm going to say full boost at 4800 ish just basing off other ppl's experience. but i think it will be small enough where i can still be able to part throttle and not spin everywhere. but we will find out.

                              I just inadvertantly bought a new car... I'll probably auto x it so I can have an excuse for it being slow...
                              "wow, your car is slow"
                              "dude my car is set up for auto-x"

                              no race car? becuz homeowner...

                                        faber what do you consider partial throttle? faber going from 0-100% throttle on and off is not part throttle.... hehe i'm kidding

                                        i would say just switch to a bigger hot side to let the engine breath... but i would guess you thought of that.

                                          yes. There is not bigger hotside for my turbo. The turbo was designed for the ka buy AMS. ill just sell it the way it is and go to a differant one.

                                          and 18psi is getting boring..... well sort off. I would like to see what I can do on the strip with this turbo.
