| Must have something to do with the climate here in Houston.
You got me beat by a full second with almost the same mods. A 30 degree temp drop from summer to winter only knocked 0.3 seconds off my times. |

| Guys I would like to try out my xB on the track too but the only thing is I've never been to a track before and I was wondering if 1) there was one in the DFW area (texas) and 2) there are any good FAQ's out there on how to get the best results. I really want to find out how well my turbo'd xB does. But I probably would want to first get a performance clutch and one of those short or quick shifter mods. |

You just have to do it! The only reason I'm doing it in my box is because I did alot of mods on my Protege5 and was too scared to run it. Then I total'd it before I ever got a chance. So I made myself get out there and run the box. |
