You sure your car's running right? With my mods in sig i'm dead even with a Srt-4 that's running over 20 something pounds of boost and has a downpipe (not sure how much that does) and my car has a miss. Not trying to down you or your car but i think you should have beat him.

 

Talk about a bruised ego. This damn thing rolled up next to me at a stop light. We both take off, I had him by a car lenth easy, so I thought. This guy came out the woodwork and pulled a car and a half in front of me. I had to slow down because a car was merging into my lane. What happened to only having 230 hp and doing about 5.8 seconds, 0-60? When he shifted, I heard a LOUD spit of air. Is this stock or modified? I have never heard a turbo like that. I have a 96 z m6. I don' t think my z is stock, being that I bought It a dealer with a rebuilt engine. I noticed a few mods like an airfoil and an aftermarket MAF. He is forcing me to go turbo. 2.4 vs 5.7. Do the math. I understand turbo but DAMN! I have put eclipses to sleep that have turbo. This one really messed me up. Looks like I'm not going to sleep well tonight.

 

I honestly think my Ignition box was going south at the time.. at this point.. my CRANE HI-6 is just sitting in the engine bay taking up space..

My opti went bad about 2k miles ago... car seems to have a whole different attitude at this point.

Maybe my car was on the its last leg or whatever (bad Ignition box & bad opti)..and.. I dont think my super duper B&M 2400 stall converter was helping any... I cant wait to swap in my TCI 3500...the B&M was a mistake.....

Anyway.. those cars are fast.. and make our cars look silly with a stage 4 from the factory....I cant believe they warranty that stuff too... ridiculous.

Mopar is junk in my opinion.. but those 2.2 / 2.4l turbos have been in the works for YEARS.. since the eary 90's (minivans & shelby daytona's.. which laughably is called the "P-body")

I just want to strap a basic STS system on and look at their faces..

Still can't beleive it, v8 vs. 4. I mean what do you do? 4 banger pulls up with STEROIDS against a well known TRUE AMERICAN MUSCLE CAR at the light and this is the outcome. That goes to show that CHEVY does not need STEROIDS to compete!

 

guess that would depend on how much "steroids" the import has, if you want to compete... muhahaha...

 

I guess I take most imports too lightly. At least this was an AMERICAN 4 banger. Well now I have to resort to STS. Put them all to sleep, at least 99% of them.

 

[QUOTE=anilator]I actually own both a '94 LT1 Camaro and '04 SRT-4. 2 completely different animals. Both are modded. I can't wait to run them head to head at ATCO. I bought DR's for both cars. The Camaro runs 12.9@107.5. The SRT-4 feels quicker from a roll.



I gotta tell you. When I took off I left him real quick but just like that he was at my door! Damn things are amazingly quick!

 

[QUOTE=FORD_IMPORT_HATER]P.S. Loud spit of air was probably a mopar Blow off valve. No performance gain, just for sound and helps relieve pressure from turbo
