Nothing to do with taking off from a stand still. Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A stock xt beats me untill boost kicks in at around 2500rpm!Without the boost coming on, you have the same car, same motor but you have lower compression.

I noticed a huge difference when I removed mine, after I got pinged :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that bad for the environment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
