Golddigga Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Nice looking car mate! Is it manual or auto? I reckon your first post has set you up to get some 'you need turbos' type answers from the TT crowd but don't worry that's par for the course! I have an N/A and love it!!!! (although must admit towards the end of the year and looking to get a TT!) Welcome aboard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 1. my exhaust not loud, i like a nice humming noise when my engine still running. can u help?? I'd love to help but I'm busy tonight Do you currently have a standard system on the car? If so have a look around the forum at other NA owners who have changed theirs, I'm not aware of any humming ones (that would annoy me!) but there are a few BAAAAAAAAAAAAWP ones. 2. it seem i'm not getting a lot speed at the lights, i know its a n/a but it seem sluggish, can u also advice. It sounds as though your engine is suffering from nonturboitus, you may also want to work on launch techniques if you plan to spend a lot of time setting off from traffic lights quickly.

hoff Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Try a nur spec r exhaust system. And time the kick downs and it'll pick its feet up (if an auto that is). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Welcome to the club Andy One of these will make your car sound a lot more 'racey', it will also help improve throttle response and gain around 8-12hp http://img98.imageshack.us/img98/8473/p1030161sa4.jpg http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/1831/p1030162uk1.jpg http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/7632/dsc00305dl3.jpg http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/1738/dsc00307xs0.jpg http://img142.imageshack.us/img142/3957/dsc00312gm4.jpg http://img83.imageshack.us/img83/1491/dsc00313hh4.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkTheBoy Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Hi mate, Massive exhaust system and some nitrous... that'll get you going faster than a dodgy vindaloo Welcome to the club! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 Maybe the car needs a service!! As was asked before, do you have a manual or an auto? The car should start to pull at about 4.5K revs and go like a rocket!! Obviously not as quick as having a turbo but it shouldn't hang about!! H.
