another victim of IS300 power

digitalartist79 · Posted: Tue Apr 08, 2003 4:22 am Post subject: another victim of IS300 power

raced an SC300 on the way to Irvine again

the guy in the SC was driving dangerously and weaving in and out of traffic. I just calmly waited and took the far right lane and actualy ended up faster than the SC even though he was weaving in and out of traffic. I gunned it and hit 120 and left him in the dust. Must i say that this car is so fast even in stock form and I am having a blast

4 wins no losses

vs BMW 3 series
vs Accord v6
vs SC300
vs Solara

Nice story......!!!

Saturday night I was coming home from sunset and this little 3 series bimmer was egg'n me on. I first gunned it and noticed he has no chance in hell so I let up....he goes flying by me 20 seconds later at what seemed to be 130MPH and almost hits the car in front of him, swerves and almost hits the side wall. I calmly changed lanes and thanked the good lord I wasn't stupid enough to race his slow ass....

Well jp2k, i've talked to a guy w/ a turbo'd accord, and i was suprised i beat him. a) He dind't have much tread left on his tires he claimed, but b) ive mastered my launch. But it was fair and square, we talked about making a run, it turned green and we were off. I even had a person in my car and he didn't. Maybe driver error, or somehing on his part. (it was a late model accord, not a new one of course) But it was plenty of turbo tho.

raced a new 911 turbo, guy thought he was going to beat my ass. He was laughing until my waste gate opened. To late he got to read my rear plate "maxxpsi" He turned off before the next light what a loser.

one customer of mine wants to put a 430 engine on his car.... he wants me to find out how much the 430 engine is going to cost.... i will find out and post the price... i think it will be very interesting, if he does it, i will tell him to dyno it, to see how many HP it produce...

The NA 430 V8 will do ok in the car, it will cost dollars and he will go with out a car for awhile. You can't put a turbo on after (no room) New motor mounts have to be made. Don't even get me started on tranny issues. Just tell him to go turbo about $7500.00 Installed with clutch,new headers and pipe,safc,to4e turbo,ic piping, intercooler,arm1,arm 1 controler, plugs and installation. Cant spell worth a shit today. Straight 6 can achive better horse power for greater duration.
