Pretty honestly if I were to get DP and the mid cats are off...they would prob stay off....or I would weld in the Vibrant resonators....but IDK...

3. traffic is going to be ridiculous and i don't know about y'all but i like cruising.

4. did i mention traffic was going to be ridiculous, going AND coming from BR.

hate to be a negative nancy but i know all this too well :-/
Then, definitely come. I'd love a companion when I head north for a drive, after the show. Especially a high strung V10.

3. You could drag race on Siegan at 8am morning traffic (well you'd easily get a ticket but that's beside the point). Traffic won't be an issue.

4. Game will be over. Traffic might be moderately heavy with all the Alabama and out of town LSU folks heading east and west (mostly east) but again you won't have any trouble getting into town (unless someone rear ends an LPG trailer again and shuts down the interstate for the day).
This, minus the drag racing.

A DP install will cost less in the long run then cutting your mid cats out and then possibly having to put them back or put resonators in. Catless DPs are the healthiest thing you can do for your turbos and that should be done first before anything else in the exhaust system changes.

Made progress but still didn't break the 12's

13.017 sec, with a 60' of -1.944
So i'm almost there. I'm pretty sure i could get it if it wasnt for the rain. Did it on my daily street tires Hankook Ventus 12, got the cp-e dual cone air intake, HKS BOV, jb4 - used map 5, ar downpipes, and borla cat-back exhaust.

The weather there was 78ºF.

Please let me know if it's possible to get 12.9 with those mods. I also am supposed to get my Intercooler installed this week.

you telling me something 1) I've already know and 2)I already know b/c you've told me 10000000 times.... I think I need to stop being hard headed...Well I did say I was getting DP...so once I get the tune I'll get the DP (I don't like lights on my dash)


Costa I can't wait to see it. If you can't get 12.9 add meth or more track/street tires.

Pretty sure any tune out there that will take advantage of the DPs will also remove the light.

Can't buy meth kit for now. Maybe later. Are these track tires more expensive or less expensive than street tires?

$1xx shipped

ready to ship in 2 days if you pay me today. shipping time is 3 to 5 days

insurance is $3 optional for lost or damage during the shipping

my paypal is xxxxx
if you are just comparing the prices, you might wanna try ebay, where it has the cheapest prices.


than ks
nah there is certain things I don't trust on ebay..and carbon fiber is one of them lol.

so you getting it today?
I'm still waiting on a vendor not on e90post to respond. So I can compare prices

lol, you can just go with him, but good luck with the service. im sure he has cheaper price than me
what do you all think of this conversation???
