Yes, but then again I had a untuned b16-turbo setup that I took out alot of people I shouldn't have. Its all in the driver behind the wheel more than anything. Some people have it and some don't.
Its one of my favorite mods, but it certainly isn't the best out there

Weren't you talking shit about 'shitting on everyones car in this thread' in another thread?

LOL.

Haha i'm not the best at getting the car off the line so most of my races have involved starting around 60mph which takes almost no skill

yeah 6psi from somthing small wont hurt shit. like a lil stock eclipse turbo or some shit. And yeah I use D series the same reason sohc_mshue (matt i believe is what yall said?) but yeah i like d series for same reason...everyone thinks they are a POS. plus there is 50 turbo b series here already.
