thats cool. i would have figured that the turbo head would have flowed better, but i guess thats not always the case.

b6t head

I have decided to start saving for a b6t swap swap. I was worried about how the intercooler piping ran over top of the head untill i read that you can swap the head from the non turboed b6 and use the intake manifold from it. I was curious to if doing that would affect the performance of the b6t. Li...

personal opinions

I want to ask some opinions of you guys. I am wanting to swap my motor out for a turbo. Should I go with the B6T or a BPT? The B6T is cheaper and more readily available and seems like it would be an easier swap. But the bpt has more power, i would also have to get a new transmission for it. Also, is...

it had the factory bf goodrich radials on it (which suck, they're too hard of a compound for that car and don't stick) so they were z rated. I was just saying that when you think about something happening at that speed, like an animal running in front of you or something like that, it can be scary.

150mph is scary. My brother and i hit 146 in his stage 2 srt-4 on I-95 traveling to florida from nc, which is about a 300mi unpatrolled stretch. racing(and beating) a trans am at that speed is definitely a rush. but when you start thinking about blowing a tire out at that speed, you start to worry.

no, it does it even if its just idling with no radio or anything, and sometimes it stumbles or hesitates when taking off from a stop. thats why i thought of the oxygen sensor
