    The only real reason for "Rev Matching" is to match the engine speed with the transmission speed to avoid locking the drive wheels. I do rev match often when driving a car with a manual trans mainly from habit being it makes for a smoother engagement between the engine and trans. If you are...

    Pics of the brothers car...,

    Yea those 1.8T's respond so well to a chip...mainly just being that it allows more boost etc. Those K03 turbos spool really early causing that insane low end torque spike.

    what do you run under your pony?

    I run Ford racing ceramic coated shorty headers, Mac o/r X pipe and Flowmaster american thunder catback...I think the car sounds great. Agreed with the superturbos, they sound good but they are just not that loud. And Flowmasters FTW!! IMO, Flowmasters give our cars that distinctive...

    Drifting

    I think drifting is allright...gotta give some credit to someone who can hold a car sideways and steer it around sideways while going 70mph, more of an art than a sport. I personally like to hang turns in my stang...nowhere near 70mph though, thats just insane.
