Re: SRT-4 in the hands of a real driver

I've seen LS1's run better than 12.8@104 with a couple of mods.There are bolt on LS1's in the 11's and don't forget Evan smith went 12.8@107 in a bone stock '98 Z28. So with 2 equal drivers LS1's still have the edge. Dont get me wrong I'm getting either a SRT4 or a hemi ram pick up for a winter beater after my T/A is paid off.

The car isnt light in no way shape or form for a 2.4L motor to pull around

That is just plain ignorant and the crap that ricers believe. It would have merit if the motor was NA...but I guess that turbo does nothing eh?

You took the words out of my mouth. You can't compare liters of a NA motor to a FA motor, and then just compare them to the weight of the car.

A better comparison is engine output vs weight for either case.

Just let em think that like they already are, oh wait that might be the reason we smoke the **** out of them when they think it would happen the other way around

couldnt find the vid with the dually dodge ram diesel smoking the 03 cobra, 11.3 to his 12.5 what would the weight to liter calculation be on that if you dont count the turbo!?! 100hp to every ton
