ahh... but remember... the G only has a little 3.5 motor! If the Japanese ever built a monter size motor like the domestics have here... just imagine how much HP would be squeezed out of it! and it will STILL have better gas mileage!!! hahaha!

 

....this on time....[laughing] ....we stayed up past our bedtime....[laughing]

 

IM waiting for a "***' power tractor in a tractor pull. I have heard that the 11 hp Honda lawn mower engine is a good choice for lawn mower racing. I will need to move to the south to verify.

 

Mustangs suck

 

remember ladys and gents....the G which won the race...had an injen cai......I swear by it....it makes the difference in a tight race



.....I lost twice in the same day first was an '04 cobra....didn't realize it wasn't a normal GT until I got a real good look at "cobra" engraved in the rear bumber....the super charger sounded like damn meat grinder

.....then I snuck up on at evo....at 70 mph(Iwas in 3rd at 4500rpm)I jumped on him....then he highjacked me from 75 to 100.....the guy told me he is running 25psi....don't know if its normal....but from 70 mph an evo ain't supposed to pull away that hard.

 

there is no replacement for displacement....

 

Lol, I've never heard anyone describe the s/c sound that way.

+1.

 

sad to say, but my custom el camino with a 325hp(rough estimate)350v8 will pull away from my g! it'll turn low 13's all day long. but that doesnt mean i wont enjoy trying to make my G preform better. but when it comes to the curves...

you guys know, its like comparing apples to oranges.

 

Hmm, a new Mustang GT jumped on me as I was getting onto the highway, from 30mph we both gunned it up a big hill, I'd say even with the hill factor, I had about a car length on him by about ~85mph, then we shut it down. Just having a little fun, but I was suprised he didn't take me.

 

Wow I am impressed!

 

I'd like to see that. Every foreign made truck with a V8 doesn't have any more power or better gas milage than the domestics do.

 

Try low 13s. Mine runs 12.7s with just long tubes and nitto DRs.

Can't beat the G for the all around package though!

 

Feels even better when you do it with "just a 4-banger".

And while the argument that there is "no replacement for displacement" is strong, if you can get the job done with a turbo AWD 4-cylinder that produces less HP/TQ than the muscle-bound opponent, then you've made the argument a moot point anyway. Been there, done that!

 

It's all pointless really. It comes down to how much money you're willing to dump into a car. Anything can be made to go fast.

And the AWD turbo 4 cylinder cars that were comparable to my Cobra in the 1/8 or 1/4...from anything other than a stop, they stood absolutely no chance. Then there are those very, and I mean very, few cars that can also run on the highway. But then it just comes back to the money point.
