Shooting flames
This Cold Weather is a MF.....
I got a 16 psi Reading on the SC and i did some loud Backfires when i hit the REV....And it was like a MF as i said...I was droping off my GF and its a 2 mile drive enough to get the car worm enough and when i left her the car just hit the rev in first in a sec and back fired with AK-47 sounds fireing from the exhaust like 3-4 times than qickly to 2nd gear and it hit the limiter as fast as id did in first...and the same thing...GOD damn what a Good thing is to have a Fast car..You cant get enough of it...you always get that great feeling...
And you alwasy think,its not about the money you spent its that feeling that you cant buy anywhere.....
to finish this monologue i get an SMS 5 min later my GF saying that she felt that her windows were gonna break and if i was out of my mind....Which is good.
Even if i woke somebody up he would have said god damn that sound of Mechanical simphony was worth waking up....



This came up to be a great tread...Keep it up...

I read someplace that continuing to dump fuel into the motor during shifts kept the turbo spooled. "Afterburning" or something. Is this a viable strategy?

Thats completely false. 

I can only fathom that it would happen when your EGTs are extremly high which in that case you should be backing off the throttle anyway.

I should have specified, unless your hitting some kind of rev limiter, your car should not be shooting flames out the back. Otherwise please tell me why dumping extra fuel (and causing ignition in the exhaust manifold) would make the car run optimally?

I would never tune my car to shoot flames on purpose but come on... it is pretty cool.
