the intake tube you got going to your turbo, is that custom or is that a cold air intake? i like it what ever it is.
where did ya get it and how much was it? i am looking for something similar to that for my ride.
as for your times on the track, with that small of a turbo and with that little boost, that is an all right time.
did you do anything else to the car prior to the race or did you just run it?
i see you have a bit of stereo stuff and some heavy rims and little rubber around them. with all of that 15 flat is'nt bad.

That is my question... just about every turbo car I see in mags do not have a CAI. I realise that most of them have an intercooler to bring the intake temps down.. but if you are already starting with cooler air.. wouldn't that be a little bit less for the intercooler to work at cooling?

the problem with that mad is that when the turbo pulls the air in, it compresses it to the point where a colder air source will heat up just as much as a warm air source. thats the only reason i have to explain not seeing CAI on turbo cars.
