get a 2wd yoda pickup and run 20lbs.

im not sure... 5.5 psi at less than full throttle doesnt exactly make a fast car. but its one of the only videos i have of my car and i felt compelled to post here. maybe im a masochist and im just waiting for people to start posting horrible things about the car and how slow it is...
i guess the point is to just post something up thats not a honda

sounds like full throttle to me.

i was running an open dp... idle sounds like full throttle. the second video is full throttle. but the first one, the one at night, i couldnt floor it or it would run like complete ***, bucking, hopping, and backfiring. im pretty sure my fuel pump took a dump on me and when i floored it the pump couldnt keep up... i drove it just now and it wasnt worth a ----. it would barely rev over 1000rpm and when it did it wouldnt run right.
anyone have a cheap 255lph? haha

why do people claim they weren't flooring it in their weak videos. just admit its weak and try harder next time

whats the difference between you running 5.5psi at 75% or 100% throttle, except that your timing will be very advanced at part throttle...
your car is ugly and slow and you're the ignorant ------- for polluting this site with your slow ugly car
