3. Why do you want to change your bosch spark plug wires (said do on the site)? (bosch is the best, when it comes to electrical)



Im not a big fan of their plugs.

Hey Sacs, wasnt it the boasch plugs that warped your head?

i had bosch plugs in the RT for about a month, and they were crap, causing an awful misfire...i changed to NGK, and ive had no problem...on the other hand, the bimmer has bosch coil packs, and with 200,000+ they had not been replaced when the car came into my possession

My 98 EX runs a 17 flat with intake, header exhaust, short shifter, a 15" sub and box, 2 amps, everypart still in it, an exhaust leak, and a faulty speedo head unit!!! if i fix everything and pull my sound system ill break into the 16's easily. and that was a ****ty reaction time of like .3-.6




with those mods and that much added weight, you'll be lucky to hit below 17.5. and RT has nothing to do with ET. you can sit there and spool your turbo for an hour and it wont start your ET till you move


what turbo?! and i was shooting for the mid 16's but with all my stuff still in it wasn't working..LOL but those are the most common and cheap bolt on's

im giving an example dude. you can go to the track and watch guys sit at the line for 2 or 3 seconds and let their turbo spool up and still get a blazing time because RT has nothing to do with ET

You're looking at a 2007 Mustang owner right here... when that GT500 hits the floor you can bet your sweet ass I'll be on the bandwagon. Talk all the **** you want but that thing will be a beast!

5.4L supercharged... yeah, I'll be murdering that new Skyline left and right



And please destroy any other New GT-R you find it looks like a shoe box or an esscort and beamer stuck together and took steroids...nissan messed up on that just like civic screwed up the SIR

I simply cant understand why people get these crappy times....I have a 98 sedan that when it had the D16Y7 in it I did minor crap to it and was knocking on the door of 15's. I could pull 16.1's all night....run after run after run.
