Mod Impressions(long)
hey guys i just broke in my clutch to 500 miles this weekend. I had my Budget y-pipe, definitve UDP, Unorthodox flywheel, Exedy clutch, and pacesetter STS installed at maximum tuning last tuesday. Jeff was awesome and a big help. I had a couple of near show stopping problems and he helped me out BIG time. I watched just about everything thing get installed. Anyway my my impressions on the overall setup is great I am able to squeel second gear and chirp into third(I've just to control myself though before i break something) I don't know what everybody is talking about it being hard to drive with the lightened flywheel and clutch. When i start off i barely have to rev it any higher then i normally would. I was expecting it to be a disaster when i first start driving but it is doesn't feel much different. I wanna get my car to englishtown so bad. Maybe this weekend if there is anything going on. One thing that really stood out is in second gear the car pulls just about all the way to redline. rock!
I was disappointed yesterday though when what looked like an RSX r-type(you the know the one with the r-type body kit but same power as the type-s, it was debadged in the back) Passed me on the right after tailgating me. I saw it coming so i dropped to third at about 60 and gunned it as he was passing me. He took me by at least 1 car length up to about 100. I was suprised since i thought my car could take him. Granted he had a little head start and i had two people in the car (350pds together). Is this right?

Ok just making sure.
No this is not a street racing thread i'm just making sure that there is nothing wrong with my car and that this is normal cause my head was getting big with all the mods i had put on and i thought i could take on anyone and was just disappointed. I knew someone was going to say that though.
