haha no way the max is a beast! it's lighter than this audi is too.. 3014lbs to 3200 something

when i get the pics i will post them. i am not able to troop to vermont until next week sometime so i'm just going to call that APR dealer and see what I can do.

I know the 99 has the 91 octane thing but can you still run it with 93? i put 93 into my maxima everytime. runs nice

just so you know I have taken a few 3.5 Maxima's in my car.....the new generation Maxima's are pretty quick. although I do have a few more ponies than you. I'm about 250 to the crank.
And yes, you can definitely run 93 with the 91 program.

this car was on another level than the rest of the b5's i've seen online. its going to take who knows how long to find one just as good. i was trying to go see the car on tuesday/tomorrow but some guy came on sunday. 7,000 was the asking price. i live 170 miles away which hindered everything. i am hoping i get an email from him saying he was lying

if you get an email saying he was lying there is no telling what else he is lying about...

myUSP

how do u figure 250 at the crank? i thought 1+ was rated for 235hp? just curious, i have a test pipe and NS exhaust, but no idea how much that really helps... im going to throw on a hard metal TIP... adds 7hp at the wheels on a k04 dyno so im hoping about 5hp on the k03 but not sure about chp...

Yeah, APR 1+ is rated at 235hp......but APR had told me another 10-15hp with the APR exhaust, so I am totally estimating when I say 250 at the crank

I'm thinking about throwing on a few decals too....its like 3hp for each one right?

Looks like we have the same car, what color is your USP?

nevermind.....sorry, I just looked at your gallery......I see its Silver. Very nice looking car. I was torn between red and silver.....ended up going with the red strictly because it was a 6 speed......where the silver one I found was tip. I had a very difficult time finding an USP......I compromised a little with mine because it didn't have heated seats (wife was pissed), but it did have everything else I was looking for.
