here is my attempt at tossing my stock 131s on the lathe and going 'full retard'.
this thread may be kinda useless until the snow melts and im able to actually drive the thing, but im curious to hear some thoughts from others who likely know much more about this than i do.
i went from stock 131s and it was fast and decently drivable, then i tried a friends "semi" full cut 181s, and it became a bit twitchy... as in sluggish and smokey around town, and then unexpected madness with any kind of boost, and not much in between. a bit hard to control and unpredictable.
so i thought id try messing with the old 131s and see what would happen. as i say, im not able to drive the thing yet with the snow, but what are your predictions? WAY WAY too much fuel? "you destroyed a good set of DVs"?
"put a fuel plate back in and you'll be fine"? ???
here are some ultra close ups of the stock 131s vs. the "semi" full cut 181s, vs. my "full retard cut" 131s.
