I could make a top mount work with a cryo kit and meth along with a better flowing exhaust manifold. At that point there would be virtually no lag. But I don't go to work to make money.
I've never once had that issue on my BNR. Certain spots have lag in higher gears below 3000 rpm. But I'd bet any money my setup is a key factor. As well as the ridiculous length of tubing for the FMIC.
I'm about one headache away from parting it out. Seriously. I want this car gone. And I hate myself for saying that, but I'm at that point in my life where it needs to be simpler.
You said beer...
Full disclosure, and this is usually something I'd save for a PM - but here goes, my wife and I split. Divorce papers filed (not my wish) and all my stuff is in the garage at the old house. Except the Strat and Mesa ;)
I have a bit of debt, and with the car payment I can't afford a place for...
With the fan on, before water 199-210, after draining and adding more water 183-196. Depends how hard I'm driving. All the important bits are there. ;)
I came up with an idea to keep the car. Both my parents (divorced) offered to let me stay shortly at home until I got my feet underneath me. So in that time I'm going to do my best to pay off the bills I have to help ease the burden on my wallet.
Not many people know this, when my grandfather passed - who was the most giving and generous man I ever knew, he left the house to my dad. He sold the house and I bought the car with the money from the house. I think about it every time I get in the car.
