you either got a problem, or he is lieing about mods.

Because my n/a legacy will hold neck & neck with a neon until I shift out of 1st gear, and then I take 'em.

Well, I'm thinkin that my non working 4wd has at least something to do with it, plus my bosst controller only lets 17psi through when it feels like it. Still, something's not right here....

I could've sworn you beat an srt-4 when your car was running fwd and hitting 17psi?

You might wanna run a compression test on your motor, just in case.
