im sure he's just excited about his lil go fast toy he's about to get

 

Amen to that

 

i thought i read on here somewhere a long time ago that having a turbo with an auto isnt all that good or somethin? not saying it is or isnt.. im just askin so dont jump on me

 

Why does everyone think I'm complaining. It was just something simple I noticed, and was wondering if it was normal or not. No need for flaming, its a simple question.

 

Speaking of a catback exhaust, what exhaust is available for the 04 ES? Rock told me the only the Magnaflow axelback will work for my car. Is the power difference between catback and axelback major?

 

you could also tighten up your throttle cable a little bit, but that can cause problems down the line... its a quick fix for what you have now though!

 

catback allows for more airflow than axelback instead of being
==[lllllllllllll]
its - with better airflow all the way through
[lllllllllllllllllllllllll]

 

I dont think ur complainning, i just think ur a little too worried about the slow starting and ur gettin a turbo.

 

I agree

Who cares how slow you are, you're going to be going alot faster soon.

Plus if you have been reading like you said then you'll know what mods to do to go fast and get better throttle responce.

 

You have no idea what my problem is... I wasnt looking for mods... I thought it may have been a problem with the car.

 

nope just a really slow car.

 

Don't forget to build up your topend horsepower while doing your bottom end also. It's like in math, what you do to one side... you have to do to the other.... Catback,headers,downpipe = Great top end horsepower... now take care of the bottom end... Bored throttle body, air intake, lower compression pistons, and match the intake manifold to the throttle body (bored out). If you don't mind losing a couple miles to the gallon then upgrade your fuel rail. Then if you want to go all out... Get the high flow mass air controller thingy (technical terms suck) made by Apex so it will retard your sensor and allow more air to the combustion chamber only if upgrade the fuel rail though. That way you won't run really rich....

 

Well, thanks for everyone's input, this thread can go to sleep.

 

Lol...you have pickup? Maybe that was a factory option in 2003, because my '02 sure is a dog.

If you're driving an auto, you'll always notice a delay between punching it and the eventual get-up-and-go.

Grats on the boost man, hope you get it soon.

 

i wish i had the money for turbo. someday hopefully
