testpipe=more boost
got a little extra kit of boost on my car last night by replacing the stock cat with a 3" test pipe...i don't have any track time with the car but i have raced my friends NOS'd 92 GSR and at first my car boosting only 3-4psi he was beating my by about a car to a car and a half...now with the test pipe in place he pulls away until i get into boost (which is about 4.5-5psi now) and then i catch him and pass him pretty easy...this is all from a roll on which my car with the LS tranny was at a disadvantage at the speed we started at since i wasn't in VTEC AND out of boost at the start....his car runs a 14.3@97 and by the way i beat him i suspect 13s will be had at only 5psi!!! now the car feels (and sounds) like a TURBO!!! my boost controller from importparts.com should be in today which im gonna prolly set at around 7-8psi...later.
