@pootmahgoots8482 3 ай бұрын

I am only at 0:38 but my whole thinking is that for a street build, bolt ons are great. Suspension, wheels and tires, exhaust, air cleaner, aesthetics, perfect. For the "because racecar" side, it really depends on what you plan on doing with your car whether you plan on taking it to the track on the weekends and using it as a daily, or if it's destined to be a full blown racecar. For street and track use, I was always told to mod your car with the progression of your driving. So start out with tires and tires. Stock for the street, track wheels and tires for the street, then as you improve, go with suspension and just get your driving down first, then a bolt in roll cage or something like that before go fast parts. If you're going full racecar, refer back to "because racecar" and cut out the daily driving part and add in ripping out the interior for weight savings. Also carbon fiber body panels, because fiberglass is so mid '90s/early 2000s.

@themadhatter444 3 ай бұрын

@Mose88 3 ай бұрын

My two cents is that you should just get a car that only needs coilovers and an exhaust. Everything external is just extra and you can modify the look and interior with time. I've had around 150 cars and probably my favorite car for the wibes was late 944 with a 2.7 i4, everything was analog, light and just the right amount of power and weight to always have fun without losing your license immediately..👌🏻And i have a 12.06 running big block -70 Nova and its really easy to get into trouble with that..

Thats diminishing returns for you. It's an expensive car that has already been very dialed in. N/A cars are so dependent on Intake/Exhaust being tuned just right, and Dundon had to make parts that are better than PORSCHE with all their genius engineers, state of the art tech, and probably spent who knows how much to RnD their parts for it. It's not a bang for your buck decision. its "this car is so good already, i just want to squeeze out just a little more" and then having the budget for it.

Love your explanations. I've always said boosted motors come in their own planning.. pick your hp goal & use, turbo to make that boost/hp, motor, fuel, & clutch/trans parts that will hold that boost/hp without breaking. Then dial it back to stay in budget/ time etc.. if the trans blows at 400 tq & don't want to buy a built trans, then that 500 goal & turbo might need to be dialed down to a 400hp setup.. Option 2 is max out the stock turbo & be happy with that, replace what breaks. Each part has its limit of hp/tq/boost etc. Like head bolts pulling out at xx-psi, or rods breaking at 400hp etc.. whatever your goal, make boost to make hp & build motors to stay together 🤘🔧

I like the idea of taking a pretty good car from the factory (where it necessarily has made compromises so that it can work in multiple environments) and making a few easy changes that really wake up the car and make it more exciting at the risk of messing up a few us cases. As an example, I have a mk7.5 GTi which comes with a snow filter. I live in the south East USA where we might get snow once every few years.
