Thread: Daily Driven Turbo Owners -- Check In!

If you get the GA16DE, report back about cable strength. Supposedly that's the difference between the SR20 besides it being a little shorter. I wondered if that was actually true(about the strength).

I think we've all been wondering the same thing. We hear it's true, but I think we'd all like to see it.

Gomba, I installed my GA16 Clutch cable last Friday, check out the pics and info here.

I DD my B15 right up until the snow hits. At 12psi it makes 302whp and 289trq, and I still get around 28mpg with mixed driving.

This is what I need for a daily. 461whp with 35+ MPG


I daily drove my B13 SER for a little while until it blew up, but that wasnt the car's fault, it was mine

i DD the turbo NX. i love it till the tranny messes up.. it's always something. but there are many people who have good luck with trannies. As of now, last week I stripped 3rd again.

^^^ Hmm, how and when did this happen?? (i.e. how was the car being driven and how has it been driven in previous ownership under your hands?? Clutch setup??) What tranny was it??

I drive my 400whp P11 all day long.... sometimes is a pain in the ass the ceramic clutch and the suspension etc... but when you hit the gas and the car run like hell its nice. jajaja

lol it happens man, with the power im making ive gone through 2 gearstacks in 8 months 8500 miles, i do however abuse the car every single day i drive it so its somewhat my fault, i have yet to break a trans at the track, its aways from the everyday beating.

Also with these new longer gears i should be at about 3000 rpms doing 70mph instead of almost 4k. I can probably expect darn close to 40 mpg if i baby the gas but that usually doesnt happen. haha

I love it. Take that crappy V8 owners. hahahaha

I DD my turbo NX as well. It's all in my sig. It's only been up and running for about 2 months now, but it is great. It's not hard to drive everyday, and it's really fun. Unfortunately, I need better tuning as I am only getting 20mpg mixed driving. All highway I only got 27mpg
