L.A. Auto Show.

Did Any One Go To The L.A. Auto Show This Past Weekend? I Worked There For My Dealership, Saturday & Sunday. I Did See One Black 7thgen Pulling In To Park As I Was Parking Myself. I Just Want To Know If Anyone Is Planing On Going Or All Ready Went.

i just went today and if anyone goes, check out this car in the ford area if its still there...



if you look at the tailpipes on each side you will notice a turbo each of them


the ic piping is long as hell,wouldn't this cause more lag??? hence wrx with the top mount (esx uses it, just bigger core) has less lag cause there is less distance from the turbine to the throttle body... or am i just wrong???

plus there is no mufflers, but then again i doubt it ride on the street for longer than ten minutes... there has to be something else with it...

the shop who helped design it has there logo slapped on the fender and i wrote it down but lost it... so if you found out who did this car, cause i want to know what has been done to it, message me up or if you find their online site message me that... thanks

Actually, thats a very efficient turbo setup. There tends to be less lag on thats setup as well. Good for larger engine vehicles.

i wasnt sure, cause i was thinkin it might be good on a larger displacement engine just due to the fact that more gas, more exhaust, more exhaust means more low end flow of exhaust cause they arent hi reving, so solution put it further away to maintain a smother torque curve... or maybe thats in my head... well i got to finish drinkin

ps. thanks for the answer, i just thought it was sick setup

oh yeah im probably goin to go back there a wednsday
