Title: I just got my car modified!
Post by: ##RaCeR## on August 05, 2001, 02:39:52 AM

Well, I just got my Mitsubishi VRX modified, with a big new muffler.

I am also considering a turbo kit, but it is a naturally aspirated vehicle...

What kinda petrol do you need to run a turbo kit on? I am running 93 PULP at the moment.

That aint my car, mine is black, but the muffler is the same size.

It just makes alot more NOISE (I love noisy mufflers)

Well,  Turbo is not really the way to go if you ask me. It wears down on year engine and your car\'s life will be cut significantly, the reason for that is because the Turbo Charger will be ALWAYS on and it will tear ur engine up. They are also quite pricey.

If you want power and boost only when you want it, I would go for Nitrous Oxide Systems, or NOS. I have a 50shot in my car and use it regulary. To this day I have had no problems with it.

But if you do go for NOS you need the following engine re-inforcments:

Intake
Exhaust (you already have this)
Headers

and then little things and your Ready For NOS.

Turbos do put pressure on your engine..  But it depends on how much boost that you use...

Use moderate amount and you will be fine for the life of your car...  Too much and your toast..

well evis i just wanted everyone to hear what my car sounds like.

i have a thing against fart pipes, they sound to annoying, my exaust is a Dynomax Cat Back dual exaust with 2.25 tail pipes and dual tips :D so it looks like it has a quad exaust. it has a more deep "im gonna hand your a$$ to you when i smoke you sound" that i like :)


oh and your tip looks tight racer
