Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

Australian supercar drivers are so good they only race themselves

Cool. I daily a 2000 SAAB 9-3 2.0t,185hp that also is my project car.

 

I have gotten new software so it makes 230hp and done the following uppgrades, i have change the rear swaybar to a 22mm from the stock 14 or 16 mm dont remember now, bilstein b8 sprint shocks with shorter performance springs, for wheels i have the saab "klingon" wheels and just the other day I upgraded the clutch to the viggen clutch since mine began to slip. I also retrofitted HID projectors and clear lenses.

 

My current plans is to upgrade the trubo in the summer and proberbly do a full exhaust at the same time.

neither have i, but i had a quick trip in a BMW I3, and i live in a city which is basically a slope and that sucker, being tiny and light just rocketed up the hills like nothing else xD it was freaking amazing

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016
