From what i could see he had exhaust and i think I heard an intake. So then all at once he decided to nail it and I downshifted from 4th into 3rd and by the time i was shifting into 4th i was about 1/2 car length ahead of him cause he got a good jump on me and I continued to pull after that. Its nothing special beating a focus but it was amusing because my friend had a Jason hockey mask on and rolled the window down and was yelling stuff at him and the guy in the focus had no one in the car with him. After we ran though i had a car in my lane that i got stuck behind and the focus got a ricer pass on us and then once i got around the car i stayed in the straight lane and the guy was in the turn lane. Well he decided he didnt want to turn and tried to cut me off but i pulled ahead of him before he could get over in front of me. He then continued to follow us around for around 15 minutes until I hit a spot where i could pull a u-turn and when he turned around behind us i nailed it and got way ahead of him and I saw him turn somewhere then and leave and those are the kind of guys that talk shit about how slow the tc is. yeah I know thats why I love it when you blow past them. They only talk trash because they know that we're faster and they have to make themselves feel better about driving something that slow

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	so trickedout what exactly do you have done to your car? Car is being put on hold until further notice. Work will continue pending on if i get the new toy i want or not. I will keep you all posted. UPDATE ON THE TUNE. It went ok but a few little issues that are causing my performance to be less than expected have shown themselves. Now I have to resolve them when I get the chance and it will be back to PTuning for the finishing touches.

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	well not to be a jerk but i would have to see proof of the 13.7. if he did then thats cool but i just don't see how only a 70 shot is going to get the car to that type of time. that would be atleast a second and a half off of the stock time just from a 70 shot. just don't see it.

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	thats cool. not saying your not telling the truth or anything dude. i'm just not sure i fully except that because when i my car with just an intake and my axle back i was running 15.2@90mph. that was on street tires. now i'm running 13.70@101 with street tires. i know mine would go faster with radials but like i said i would need to see a time slip or video something. again not trying to be a d*ck or anything. i'm just skeptic like that.

Monster42R Martinsburg West Virginia, US Window Washer	Well greddytc05, before the whole race set-up was on my car it was powered by a 100 shot. Best time on that set-up was 13.06@107. That was with a DC header, custom 2.5" exhaust, pump, 100 shot. So I don't see why you dont belive the guy. And stop saying "I'm not trying to be a dick", because you are.

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	hey jack a$$ what is your problem. i wasn't even talking to you and who are you anyway. you don't know me or anything about me. the reason i keep saying i'm not trying to be a dick is because i don't want to make anyone mad. if i want to be skeptical about something that is my choice. you say that you only ran a 13.6 with a 100 shot plus the other mods you listed. so why wouldn't i be a little hesitant to believe that he is only running a tenth slower with atleast 30 less hp? i tell you what for someone that has only been on the forums since monday you aren't going to be making too many friends by calling people a dick your second day as a member. if you want proof just ask people around martinsburg. most people know me or have atleast been around me. just ask them if i'm a dick or not.

Monster42R Martinsburg West Virginia, US Window Washer	Uh, 13.6? How about reading again- 13.06. Besides Mr. Greddy(Shitty kit) this summer I will be in Hagerstown with a real turbo set-up. Just set-up a day, Oh and you were still being a dick. Why doubt someone, you should be proud to have another TC owner beatin' SRT ass.

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	sorry i miss read the 13.06. so that definatly makes me not believe you. especially with only a 100 shot and a couple of bolt ons. what is so shitty about the greddy kit? if i wanted to i could run it to 450hp. what is it shitty just because it doesn't have a gt30 or gt35r strapped to it. big deal. i don't have a built motor and don't want to blow it up. so what set up are you going to be comeing out with this summer that is going to be so great. you wanna talk about someone being a dick you should take a look in the mirror sometime. the way your acting i would be willing to say that you are the type of person that goes on you tube and constantly bash others about there cars for no reason. if you do turbo your car and it turns out nice then good job. it would be nice to see another turbo tc in the area. i was the first and the second is a guy that lives in boonsboro. but now i'm going to let this get back on topic. if you would like to carry this further we can do so in pm's.

tCizzler Canonsburg Pennsylvania, US Detailer	To be honest, i'm a little skeptical about a 13.06 with only a 100 shot too. I've seen(and driven) a turbo'd tC running at about 235 whp and it only ran 14.5s, on the BEST run of the car's life it only ran a 13.9 and that was with slicks. I know nitrous and turbo are way different but 100shot vs 110 whp..... and the 100 shot wins by a full second??? I don't like to fight, but i ain't scared to bleed..... Most don't mess with a guy like me- Eric Church

Greddytc05, don't get a hard on with slicks you should see atleast a 13.3 or so(depending on your driving, are you powershifting?). I just don't think the greddy kit has any quality to it. How are you to grow with this kit? It's a mitsu housing so your limited there, I say stick with something that works t3/t4 a grow along kit. Sure your 18G is good for a large amount of power but at some point you will be upset that here is all the power it will make. As far as my set-up my name should have some hint to it... If you want a build sheet or maybe pics in a couple weeks thats fine. I just don't get into the whole couch/forum/dyno-paper racing scene.
