this was about two turbo cars and someone (what seemed to me) questioning whether or not a 13b could get that kind of power gain from exhaust, thats all
i know why we get the power i never said different but like i said before ^^^^^^^^^^

haha well, it is pretty loud, i guess im just lucky that i dont give a poop 
a big free flowing full exhaust is still going to be pretty loud, may as well go all out

depends on what your driving here, at least thats been my experience
i had a 98 gsx, bright red, rims, lowered a little, full 3".. it looked badass, and it was sort of loud.. it had a muffler so it wasnt too bad. it was awd and couldnt do burnouts.. but it looked pretty bling. i had it for 4 months or so, and in that time i was pulled over 8 times i **** you not. i got pulled over for 30 in a 25. i got pulled over because the cop "thought it looked like i was speeding" i was pulled over for no reason i could even figure out a couple times. i got pulled over because a civic launched on me off a light, i didnt even want to waste my time on him but the cop still let him go and gave me a noise violation ticket... basically i got pulled over every time i got in the car, the cops ******* HATED the car. they couldnt understand how a 21 year old could afford to buy that with his own money or something...
now my omni, its fwd and does burnouts easily and often its loud as ****, no exhaust..just a straight pipe out the back, and its a whole lot faster than my gsx was as well. ive had it for a little over a year, and ive never been pulled over in it once, driving all the same roads, just in a car that doesnt look fast.
i think the moral of this story is that cops hate cars that look fast, and dont care if you look like **** doing it ha.
...not that *i* think my omni is ugly, i think its hot and sexy ....most people disagree with me though heh

Then again boh cars are very rare..i would like to own a rx7 too but i dont want to deal with the rotory engine. if you ask a toyota forum more likely theyre going to tell u to keep the mr2 good luck though
oh yeah my friends 94 rx7 TT cant even touch me (if that helps)
i have 91 jspec 3sgte with blitz nur spec
blitz Dp
bitz BOV
Greddy profec b BC 14 psi
255lph walbro fuel pump
k&n air filter
spec stage 2 clutch
ats throttle inlet
stock turbo took it to the tracks last month ran 13.8"
he ran 13.8 1/4 yet the Stock FD could not take him? i persoanally think it's teh driver cause FD's with good drivers run 14s yet his .20 sec faster car can "not even get touched by an FD" i think the other driver needs to learn how to drive better (not saying i know how to drive good) but the comparison is kind whack i thought, alothough i was proud to see some people sticking up for the Roatry, and not just bashing what they don't know (although some were getting close) i am happy to see more truth come out bout the Roatry from guys who used to own one now don't cause of mainly the cost :P.
