Look up the law in Ohio for rear tail light visibility. NJ has something weird that if an officer can make out the light through a piece of copy paper at x distance, its good.
Maybe in a straight line, but will it go around a track for more than one lap as fast. Very doubtful. There is a serious difference between a cheap car modified to go fast (DSMs) and a more or less purpose built race car that happens to be street legal.Maybe in a straight line, but will it...
Welcome aboard! Love those 1st gen speed threes. Do you have a build thread on another forum?There is a TON to learn on these boards. And a TON for you to learn, especially since you are coming from a "new car" platform. You are going to find the first thing that should always be done before...

You do know this thing rolls on the same exact tires that come standard on a Prius right?Ever hear of a Mazda Miata? Dirt slow, doesn't throw a bajillion G's on the skid pad... always voted as one of the best driver's cars out there. Speed isn't everything.
Hey,As a recent grad in engineering I would recommend you see your degree through 100%. You would be surprised what an engineering degree can get you into even not in the engineering field. Most large companies that have engineering programs understand that engineering is one of the hardest...
I would guestimate that the manifolds would be a wash on price. By the time you get done purchasing 2 new wastegates, custom O2, turbo+rebuild, etc... I bet you're getting very close to the price of a upgraded EVOX turbo.
Now if only I still had my DSM to ship out to Michigan. Using the EVO X turbo is insanely awesome. I've always been jealous of the Evo guys and their stock frame turbos.Hopefully I'll have another DSM by the time you're all done working on this. Great idea!
I taught myself to do cool stuff like that off of a diving board and a trampoline years ago. I never sacked up enough to try it on the ground though LOL
