The white smoke, are you sure it's smoke or steam? Was it when the car just started? Did it happen for 5 minutes or so while it was idling? Was it cold weather? Thank you Alspos for your quick response! P.S. I just updated my original post with more info :wink: As for the Smoke vs Steam. Yes, It wa...

How Heavy is your Starion?

I am very interested in the Power to Weight Ratio's of your Starion's! Wikipedia say the Standard Factory weight was: Narrowbody = 1,260 kg (2,800 lb) Widebody = 1,340 kg (3,000 lb) I personally planned to get my Starion on a dyno for power reading and taken to the local tip to use their drive on sc...

I'll be selling my starion soon by the way. I doubt I'd have any money to buy your Starion, but I am still interested in hearing about it! Since I am following some of your ideas and teachings; What kind of power is has your Starion got? What boost are you running to get that power? I already know ...

I have been looking into this mod for awhile. I am pretty el'cheapo and this seemed like a good way to start. Plus I have 2 JA ECU's, so I can try it out and go back to normal if I like.
