Hit the Apex?

jurupa · 07-09-2007, 05:56 PM

When I was going to Fry's after school today, I took a turn somewhat fast and normally I feel the normal resistence you will get from turning, but I didn't get that. Its like I hit the sweet spot or something. I don't have any race course training, but was it possible that I hit the apex of that turn? Or there is something up with my springs?

Industry or Anaheim?
I find that the car is easy in the turn. Little arm powers needed, especially compared with my old girl. Her steering is more a suggestion then a command

I do the 605 to 105 interchange at 80mph one handed.
Welcome to the feel of power my friend.

I was going to the Anaheim one. The turn I am talking about is making the right hand turn from Chapman to State College. Normally I get some resitence in the turns no matter what the speed (unless I ma going like 5 mph or something).

On a side note with the cat back my car is now freaking loud in the parking structure at school. People where giving me looks lol. I just hope campus police doesn't have another talk with me about the noise my car makes lol.

did you take the resonators out? what kind of muffler did you use? i'm sure you posted this elsewhere, but i'm lazy

. i'm going to get a couple resonators when i dig up some money to finally finish my exhaust. it'll be pretty darn quiet for a very free flowing exhaust.

Yes the resonator is taken out and I have a Magna Flow muffler with 2.25" piping. Its not that loud at low RPM's, but if I gas it it does get loud. My guess is you can hear me rought a block away, which is not to bad.

Good point Sir. I was Messing around with my exhaust after cleaning my car. I dont Recommend this. but if u really wana make it Loud. and I mean LOUD. put a hose in ur pipe. it wont flow up the pipe. let it Flow till it comes back out. and U got ur self a SUper megaphone.
