    Default 12 psi + FMIC

    Despite someone effing my front end, I still took the car out for a rip last night.

    Running with the controller off I noticed a small decrease in power (probably 1-2psi pressure drop) with the FMIC. However, as soon as I put boost at 12psi (5psi higher than stock) the car was flying. I literally mean ... just going.

    I'm guessing a increase of AT LEAST 25whp, running with the controller off and then at 12psi. Leaving the controller on low has it set at 9psi and that feels better than with it off.

    I want to get to a dyno to see what my actual power numbers are.

    But, I can add a Porche 944 to my kill list



    note: street racing = bad. e:P

    Stock 944's aren't much of a kill, I killed one in my Gf's 2.0t mazda

    Haha Jack, I'd race ya but I know you don't want to waste perfectly good gas

    I don't think this 944 was stock (based on the look of the exhaust and the car), but I could be wrong. I'm not too familiar with Porches, but I figured a Porsche should have more jam than that one did.

    I want the injectors dammit, but I'm short on cash right now (even morso now that some dink hit my front end).

    I'll put some money aside and have $200 in two weeks, guaranteed. Deal?

    all jack would do is make fun of our displacement.

    ca18's are like a turbo honda engine, no torque compaired to hp

    It's hard for a 1.8L to make torque.

    Hey, all I know is that ever since I ran 12psi with the front mount I'm having a helluva lot more fun... and, because of circumstance beyond my control, it's a single seater too
