So I got my hair cut today and while I was waiting I saw some numbers on a Lancer GTS. 0-60 is recorded at 8.5 seconds 0-100 is at 24.1 seconds Weight is 3110lbs Quarter Mile time is 16.5 seconds at 86mph Maximum speed is 125mph (electronic limiter)
i don't know...i like road and track, but sometimes their numbers sound like total crap. i know that when they tested the R/A in 2004, they said the 0-60 was like 7.9. i think that was BS...unless it just feels faster than it really is. haha
was that for the 08 or the 09? i know for a fact that my 09 has no such electronic limitation on top speed. i plead the 5th on HOW i know... but i know
and i still don't think it's electronically limited. just max power vs. wind resistance that won't let it go much fast. i beleive i've heard 142~145mph from others (just take a looooooooooong flat stretch of highway to get it that high, lmao).
0-60 is bullshit cuz even with a CAI i can only get close to 9 seconds and a top speed of 120 (ran out of road)
well to today i took a road trip to florida and i got a top speed of 130 down hill and 125 on flat road.
wind friction is completely underrated, just a 2mph wind pushing against a car is enough to drop its top speed. there are too many variables which is why i don't pay much attention to these "facts"
well you the weird thing is that after i did that the exhaust tone change. it's like the muffler got to hot or something. can anyone help with a answer on that. when i added the header it was loud now it quieter like before i added the header.
i think i got my answer today i call a muffler shop and the guy told me it sounds like it got to hot and burned up the cat. so i emailed speed corps so i can try getting a new one from injen. i just don't know if it wouldn't be better if i didn't just get a magna flow hi flow cat. i found a new one on ebay for $67.00 w/ free shipping.
well i just dropped the exhaust and took a look at the cat. well it's fine, but the header is wrong. for anyone that has the header they know that there's a flex section on it. well that flex section is almost swelled shut. there's only like a dime or so sized hole. i don't know about you but i think that might be my problem.lol. time to call RRM i guess. here's a pic of what i'm talking about
i wonder if the cat getting hot is what that smell is that sometimes comes up after we've been runnin our cars hard.
