Front Mount on 14b?

It's simply that on race gas, the difference is not as large. The difference still sure does exist though!

The point is that is may not generate faster 1/4 times in this extremely specific case (1g, 14b, etc) because the difference is that minimal when you are reaching the end of the 14b.

The whole reason I made the argument that a FMIC may not be necessary because most people in my opinion shooting for best times on 14b are going to be running +20psi and running race gas plus all the basic mods, whereas in Kpt's opinion he would rather take the time/effort/money difference (which may or may not be that significant depending on if it's a DIY, etc) to make gains most of the time.

It was simply a matter of perspective that got blown out of proportion and in the end noone was right or wrong as much as I hate to admit it.

I have no problem with your different perspective.

What I do have a problem with is the fact that I made a statement, which was true, and you called me a moron for it. That makes you wrong.

Not only that, but you chose to attack me personally with this crap about misinformation, etc.

Not true. I'm sure we could help you, if you'd let us try.

Remember when I tried to explain to you that octane does not directly effect burn rate, and you called me an idiot for it? And then, you suggested that I start a thread on NABR about it? Well, I did.

Interestingly enough, the one reply has been one person confirming what I thought.

I have yet to see you prove me wrong, except for where I said "uncompiled" and shortly thereafter admitted I said it accidentally when I meant compiled. That's not stupid, that's a mistake that has been corrected.

If you can find anything else that I said that was wrong I'd love to see it. Good luck.

I am in 100% utter agreement.

In this instance a 14b cannot support it. THAT IS MY ENTIRE POINT.

I'm am simply trying to argue a specific instance, not theory.

arron you need to shut the f### up and try and develope a little respect for the wiseman!! in my opinion , and i donnot have to read the rest of your nonsense ,and i think everybody here will agree your a$$ got owned :p
 
Back to the original discussion . I have a 14b and yes since the front mount intercooler install there has been almost no instances of knock and pulls much harder with only a slight increase in lag.
 
I wish you guys had not dug this up.

However:

My car with a 14b now has a big FMIC on it. After retuning, the car is much faster. That prove it right there.
 
Well, since it did get brought up again, I would like to agree with the masses on that one. What would drive a man so mad that you would consider that notion. I know somebody with a t25 that went from his stock ic to an fmic kit, he went from a 14.4 to a 14.2 plus 2 mph. So experience seals the deal.
