Billy Jean is not my lover ... Group: Advanced Members Posts: 586 Member No.: 68 Joined: Nov 1st 2002 Location: Update Profile | Sorry about bringing up this topic again but i couldnt find it so i decided to start another one.... I rmb there being alot of talk about apexing turns and stuff.....yah, thas not what hes talking about there....in fact, its a whole different context in which ryosuke is using it..... 1st point i believe is straights 2nd point i believe is corners 3rd point i believe is either doing both at the same time, or having that sense of driving, knowing what to do, therefore, improvising when mistakes are made and capitalizing when your opponent screws up..... if im wrong, plz correct me |

very simple way to reduce turbo lag and make it behave more like a NA car... | ||

I'm juz Running in the 90's Group: Advanced Members Posts: 551 Member No.: 36 Joined: Oct 7th 2002 Location: Earth | still u all didnt mention torque which is the crucial element... let's say u hv a 3000bhp MONSTER Evolution, but it takes few donkey years to reach that maximum horse power... |

sorry...but yes karasac. people these days have enuf trouble reading the lines let alone reading between them and you can quote ME on THAT lols. and turbo lag is the reason why pplz should N/A tune their cars...and no...superchargers aren't an option...why you ask? cuz I dont' like FI heh. | ||

it's true...sarcasm and subtle implications are lost on many people these days. if implications wasn't a word before, it is now ahha neways.when bunta_boi said the third point was a combination of both straightaways and the apex in a corner the thot of a straight corner came to mind....I still have no idea wut a straight corner would look like.... | ||||

the deranged one Group: Advanced Members Posts: 5,132 Member No.: 34 Joined: Oct 1st 2002 Location: Vancouver, Canada | well when you're talking about changing the power of a car you're including torque unless specified otherwise. and yes bunta boi, I know wut you meant..that thot of a straight turn just came to my mind..heh. |

HUH? LOL.... why don't you explain that one. I can see what you're saying with that statement.... but if you know anything about Turbo's... you know that you don't necesarily need to reduce BHP all the time in order to get quicker results.
Do you know the amount of money needed to spend to make a NA car go head to head on par with a car with an aftermarket FI system? And sorry man... but saying SC's aren't an option because you don't like FI... doesn't hold up your "argument" very well. | ||||

IDW Prime Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 650 Member No.: 101 Joined: Nov 20th 2002 Location: San Diego, CA | Just get a smaller turbo. The lag depends on tons of stuff. You can also set up an anti-lag system but then your car will be very loud and very not street legal. Alex |

HAHA ryosuke that doesnt make sense to me either. Alot of people dont understand turbos. Turbos are controlled by the exhaust gas. Controlling boost means opening the wastegate once a certain amount of pressure is present in the intake. Turning boost down turns down horsepower but does not reduce turbo lag. | ||||
