well his car and my car were just as fast and i had VSPL, full exhuast, stage 3 clutch and 11.5 psi among a few other things. 251 is high for that set up, but his car was faster than most with those mods. i beleive it. and varun, its not copying, its called reverse-engineering. taking an existing product, making it better and making is domestically. ---

So after putting on about 1000kms in about 3 weeks, I have one conclusion: The factory SR is not enough. Other then that, the car is slow to launch but once you’re in 2nd or 3rd gear it’s a blast to drive. Highway crusing is even better beause of the available torque at top end. I miss the low end of the KA but the SR makes up for it in every other way. Plus it sounds cool: Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Psshhhhhhhh! :hsugh: ---

It’s all the same bells and whistles most SR owners have. Stock extension with Megan flex-down pipe. Full boost? I dunno somewhere in the 3000rpm range? :dunno: Either ways, I’m lookin forward to some upgrades over the winter. The SR is fun, but not fun enough…I guess. ---

The SR is fun, but not fun enough…I guess.[/quote] Yea I dont really know what their like driving complete stock… Anything I did to mine was done prior to me even dropping the SR into the chassis so I didnt know what to expect. Coming from Motocross the SR does have a very friggin weak bottom end but its not a huge issue that a tiny bit of clutch cannot cure. I can see 7psi by 2700 rpm and 11psi by 3000rpm With good Proxes in the Rear it will not lite up in 1st unless you give her some clutch… With bald proxes or crappy motormaster then it’ll lite up in 1st gear easily. I really enjoy the car @ 11psi… its a blast to drive. Im very curious what it’ll be like tuned proper @ 14psi. Car is fast enough for me as I dont have the HP bug many others appear to have 😛 ---

When I had my vac lines all wrong (basically fulltime closed wastegate) I was hitting 11psi+ easily and the car felt very alive. When I finally corrected my vacuum lines (thus having an 8psi limit), the car felt a little…weak. :dunno: ---

i sent [jimwolftechnology.com](http://jimwolftechnology.com) an email about built na ka’s. they recommended it would be a lot better and cheaper to go with forced induction (turbo) as opposed to natural aspiration. i posted it in a discussion about this somewhere around here, but i can’t find the thread. ---
