Thanks!
 I wonder if the 2 extra hp makes up for the weight difference. |

Maybe,
you could run 15's if you spend another $2,000; but still not
even as cool as a retard bus. (which aren't cool) |

Or just spend $500 on nitrous and make some mustang owners feel like they should be riding the retard bus for buying one. |

well, 15's would be beatings a v6 camaro or mustang (which im told are cool?? ) if he does an engine swap, he could be in the 13's or 12' with mods. and for 3500(or so) he could swap a h22 in and be very quick.

what you dont understand is i hate all V6 camaro and mustang models. Ibelieve that to achieve true speed you must have speed there to begin.

That doesnt make sense.. If you stop you dont have any speed which means you wont move again?  Dont give me the you have to buy a fast car to have a fast car BS. It may take more money to make a 4 banger faster then a V8, but it can be done. If you want to argue about it, go buy the fastest car you can find stock and go race boosted3g. And let me know who wins in his little 1.8L Integra. Im sure he'd be more then happy to race you.

He is right. See the thing is that bolt ons don't give all the power in the world that they advertise in the magazines. You have a SOHC engine, and honestly bolt ons are worth all the money that you pay for it. A person might pay a couple hundred $'s for a part that might give him/her just two or three horses, and it advertises much more than that. 16's, maybe even high 15's would be my guess. |
