(BUSADOOK @ Apr. 16 2007,13:02) why the GSXR 1000 rims? i thought they were the same...? how bad was the turbo lag when the motor was stock?

The GSXR rims weight a couple pounds less than the stock busa rims and they were already silver which I have always wanted since I hated the black wheels. It had no noticeable turbo lag when it was stock motored nor does it seem to have any now. This system builds boost very fast and runs like a stocker till boost.

That exhaust just looks VERY loud.  

They are not as loud as you would think they would be, the turbo really quietens it down a great deal.

Really ... had no idea the turbo would have that effect on it ... they still look mean to me.

Turbo's quiet down a motor a whole lot, because it has to pass through the turbo before it exits. I asked about the turbo lag because i used to have a 95 Eagle Talon TSI that had a 20G turbo on it, and a friend had a Eclipse with a t3/t4. since the t3t4 was so much bigger he had alot of lag, and mine was always faster. If he used nitrous to help spool they were even. But the busa motor has more HP naturally so that may be the difference. Not to mention on cars they have such a large intercooler.
