i highly doubt he was driving around OC on 24 pounds, or even 12 pounds for that matter. so how much power the car is good for is a moot point.
and as mentioned above, yes, i do know what im talking about most of the time

i gotcha. i guess its just a matter of knowing about how that car responds to that size turbo. im done posting in this thread now that the hostility has died down (thank god). im gonna go ahead and apologize for any feelings i may have hurt or things i said that were inappropriate. just trying to make the story more concrete. im leaving this quote from AJ himself just so anyone else who ponders this thread wants to know the truth:
"lol yea well many say i was racing or getting on it, if you guys actually put some thought into it...
- Making a u- turn at a light, wrecked right before the next light.
- How many of ya'll can hit over 100mph in one block when the roads are filled with rain when your car pushes over 500 hp at half of peak boost?--not me--
-In dry weather i dont get traction till 3rd, and as far as the 12 psi- i really dont know where i was at i just figured thats the only way my car would have kicked it- i dont spool till about 4500 so yea im driving down the road not looking at my gauges
The guy who asked that just signed up so he could post this **** on that gay ass vdub forum! w/e - thank god no one was hurt besides me, Im dealing with the precautions of fines and the loss of my car-"
