the ms3 should come stock with 8 motor mounts so when half fail the motor is still in the car
anyways.. You might as well compare dyno sheets in the parking lot if your going to race from a roll. Your giving yourself an unfair advantage by racing from a roll

It takes ALOT of skill to launch a car well. Anyone can slam gears from a roll but not everyone can launch
Decent races tho!!!!
turbo tc's are def not slouches

race from dig proves
1.low end power/tq
2. traction- how good are the tires, lsd, suspension, awd/rwd/fwd
3. driver's launching skill
4. Top end depends on situation
race from roll
1. proves low-mid to top end power

Waaa? They are not that fast. Stage 0 tC's can keep up with a stock MS3 if not beat one.

Yeah, I know, I street race all the time. Track is about an hour away from me. Wish it was open year round like some of you guys that are lucky enough to get the privilege.
Loving the call out though, and going in and being the fastest still. tC 1 World 0...

Again, they are not that fast. Stage 0 beat one in the 1/8th mile drag strip. I was there, my boy Louis had a Stage 0 at the time.

Built in Traction Control is not for launching at the drag strip. It's for when it's raining outside, and you loose grip. Traction Control for the most part kills power to the motor so that you can regain traction. This is the way it works on my 350z and for the most part works the same way on other cars.

My friend ran a 13.1 on 18psi intake with his MS3. And he WHOOPED me everytime I raced him (i was on 7psi)

me with my stock exhaust on
and him with just an intake
it wasnt even close
even from a dig
ms3's are pretty fast for the price, but aftermarker parts are almost always better
