Lol^

 

Soooo we want updates

 

I threw LNF springs in my LE5 yesterday. Turns out I need a strut and sway bar end link

 

He could update if you'd stop being cheap and buy him his f40 kit already.

 

Lmao

 

Ya Snail. But Colin you also have to give me those coilovers

 

Make him buy you some new ones

 

True he shouldn't give me his old used ****

 

I think he'd appreciate it if you friends/family sent him 5000 through PayPal, thanks.

 

Who me?? Yes I would like that

 

Haha he can send me 5000 and I'll send him the f40 with the kit

 

No problem if the F40 has billet gears and a LSD

 

BTW I'm very close to letting the cat out of the bag on my plans. They should be arriving hopefully this week!!

 

You think the LSD will be necessary for me?

Just spill the beans man

 

You don't have LSD?

 

My car has LSD right now not sure if the f40 comes with LSD but it's something I can always add

 

Oh okay I see what you're saying.

Only one way to find out

 

LSDs are good for plating power coming out of corners

I don't have it yet

F40s don't

 

I was thinking about this the other day (I have a non LSD F23) but wouldn't an LSD also tend to make you more prone to under-steer when under acceleration out of a corner? I don't have any sort of traction control or ABS. My thinking is if you are coming out of a corner hard enough that your inside tire is slipping, the outside tire is probably close to exceeding grip. With no LSD that inside tire will spin but the outside tire will continue to use most of it's grip to make it on around the corner until you straighten back out enough to regain grip in both wheels. With an LSD you are going to be sending more power to the outside wheel increasing the tendency to exceed grip on that tire and under-steer.

Not trying to start a debate or anything on this I just was wondering about this.

 

Well with my driving habits I like to take corners a bit hard but I should be fine without it but I'll look into the LSD for it and see if it's in the budget

 

Hey Kevin should a k04r pull on a k04 balt on the same pump gas?

 

It should but the R isn't the best on 91

 

The R is a K04 with more flow but if you think about it the R still has the same exhaust housing and the k04. So to get the benefits of the flow you need to keep EGTs in check to be able to run more timing. On my meth and 94 I was able to run it hard enough to have good gains but I also have a ported o2 housing which helps temps. I have tried everything on Shawns car and can not get more timing in the thing. If he added meth it would have huge gains over a k04 car

 

i know kevins secret for his build

 

this X 100
the k04r didn't make much more power then the stock k04 for me with my gas. but i bet with meth injection or E blend it would start to shine compared to the stocker
