Don't forget a big *** wing, better handling in a FWD with a 6ft wing!
Power does not come cheap unless you want it to be shitty and break down!

Re: cheap tricks for power (m3dia_lab)
steal a turbo from a 1g eclipse: $0
buy heater hosing for charge piping: $50
have your friend weld the manifold to your car cause it doesn't fit: $0
the whole idea and forgeting about fuel management: stupid
there's a $50 turbo kit that some moron in my town did.

yes, yes, more like $50, yes-eBay, ehh? $150, match the port yourself-FREE, yes and NGK-$40. Just saved even more money! WooHoo! Being cheap rules!

whats the fastest youve ever been in a fwd? believe it or not after 100mph it realy helps stabilize you *** end.
as for cheap modifications. go to radio shack and buy 12-15 foot of two gauge wire and install a new power wire to the main fuse bus from battery and a new ground from battery and replace all the grounds in the engine bay, next you want to use the remaing wire to link all the existing gounds together to form a daisy chain. then you have a very effective gounding kit plus up the power supply stability. if you want to go future go to radio shack and buy you an electrolytic capicitor for about 50 cent and wire it in to the main relay bus and you can garuntee exact voltages on all your sensors. some people hook them up to the ecu to garauntee the ecu has stable power for exact performance.
same concept to the stiffing cap on your stereo set ups.

I'm talking precise porting here. Not "let's just use the Dremel and see how much we open the inlet!!"

Match porting is pretty basic though. Anyone with a gasket, marker and dremel can do that.

how much are you turning and manuvering your car after a 100mph?
150mph fastest I've been!

This hypergrounding **** is just the latest ricer trend it seems, does anyone have PROOF that it does anything? Like.. dyno comparisons?

obvioulsy not much...but it cuts out that fishy tail end when you slow down and go around the mild turns...cuts out some of the understeer.

I've noticed the faster I go in the EH the less stable it is. There's not much aerodynamic downforce on the rear, so I'm unsure as to whyit would be more stable at high speeds unless you have a spoiler/wing of some sort. I actually started oversteering once going 85 on a freeway to freeway ramp. For those two seconds I thought about getting a ricer wing The backend just seems to wander whereever it wanted.
