VTGT Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 That was amazing.. I was wondering the same thing. Wouldn't stage two with a protune be faster than a charger rt and a camaro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VXCL Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 where the hell were you with that many exotics on the road together? looks a like a gumball or players run without the stickers, energy drinks, and flocks of sl600s MAYHEM #122/22 STS NNJR SCCA AUTOX4U.COM XENON RETRO GUIDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsalicru Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 That was Crystal Cove in Newport Beach, CA. At 7am most Saturday mornings the place fills up with millions of dollars worth of exotics. Cars like Bugatti Veyron, Enzo, CGT, SLR, Murcielago, Gallardo, 430, 360, etc come out for a good show. Stage 2 ProTune STi can SMOKE a Camaro TT and beat a midly modded C5 (examples). The 911 in that video is extensively modded.. not that you could tell very much, but it was PULLING on the CGT. "some say, his arms are made of coiled adamantium fibers. And that he tops his cereal with nuts and bolts. All we know is, he's called the Jose." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deer Killer Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 You could always end up like me.. in THIS predicament (that is actually me.. and that was actually happenstance) http://videos.streetfire.net/search/Gallardo/0/1274A5EB-FEA9-41FD-879D-F29A7FFD9ED7.htm Maybe in Cali.. The few times I have seen exotics up here they have been going very, very slow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azca Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 I have been to Phoenix a few times and seen tons of exoticts on sat and sunday anyways, racing on the streets is dumb because cops will get you one day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VTGT Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 So a stock legacy has much better handling dynamics than stock charger rt, svt cobra, gto, and camaro? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterJMC Posted April 26, 2006 Share Posted April 26, 2006 SVT Cobra IMO handles pretty well with the IRS. The stock Legacy blows with the amount of body roll it has. Stock sways suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest *Jedimaster* Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Rain, Snow, or Gravel. Curves. Stage 2. (or maybe even a Stage 1 protune). Competent driver. Point and shout "Is that Jeff Gordon?!" Any of the above should do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wukindada Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Let this be said also......if the cars in question are stock the only one listed that could not be taken by a Protuned Stage II+ car would be the Cobra. I have had runs with a Magnum SRT8...a 05 GTO (AT) & a WS6 trans am 6 (spd) all were pretty much a dead heat. Altough all of the cars listed will carry a faster trap speed. My neighbors son lives in long Island. He just purchased a very low mileage 03 Cobra. He installed a smaaler Diam. pulley on the supercharger....Header back exhaust....BBK intake & had the car Tuned. So in parts he put about 2k in the car.... results: Stock.............340rwhp Modded.........436rwhp:eek: Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wukindada Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 He's going to be here this weekend, I'll find out more then. I'm sure he has not taken it to the track though, he just got it about a month ago. He's been ordering parts & installing ever since. He was ordering street drag radials this week....the car will not hook up with stock rubber:eek: Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviemadness Posted April 27, 2006 Author Share Posted April 27, 2006 so what i'm hearing.. is that if you do mod this car, you will be able to catch the stock versions of those cars, but once they're modded, game over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wukindada Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Remember though excluding the 03 Cobra....big increases in HP are not as easily attained for small amounts of money with the other cars. Down here @ our local meets the average enthusiast will install a catback & a cold air intake on those cars & thats it. Lately I have been talking to a few GTO owners with quite a few mods also. Several have gone to a intercooled supercharged setup putting down 550-600rwhp....cost 6-8k:eek: Those are awesome figures for a sub 40k car including the mods. I would like to get a 06 GTO & add the following keeping the car N/A. One local from tampa has this setup & it makes for a wicked daily driver still getting 26-27mpg on the highway:) 6MT STS Cam Cold air intake / Throttle body header back exhaust Diablosport custom ecu map A few other minor mods......not as drastic as the cobra but still very stout. Stock.........355whp Modded.....415whp The guy turned the wrench himself so the total cost for mods was about 2,500. So total cost for the car including mods is under 35K:) I plan on giving this car a run when my mods are complete on the "grocery getter" (350-360whp / 380-390Ftlb 93oct ) A 100oct tune will really make it interesting!

Guest *Jedimaster* Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 That's one thing I miss about my GTP- for not much cash you could do a smaller pulley and a few other goodies and have the thing really move! It was like sticker shock when I got into the Subaru community- everything is so expensive. And there's all these weird sounding brands for wheels and accessories that I've never heard of but are apparently very cool over in Japan and desirable to teh JDM wannabe crowd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wukindada Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 Oh.....nothing like the 3.8 & a 3" pulley! Add a 160* thermostat a transmission shift kit & cold air intake.....sounds like my old SSE-i. For 500.00......increased HP by 65:) Toyota 6EATS .........SUCK!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Smoke_ Posted April 27, 2006 Share Posted April 27, 2006 He was ordering street drag radials this week....the car will not hook up with stock rubber:eek: That is one spot where we shine. The AWD does hook up on dry & in the rain. So with a tuned stg.1 or 2, and with good rubber, we can take many of the "mostly stock" V-8's. Not to mention, our cars are fairly light also. 500lbs less than most of them. Go Get Em' "You poke it, You own it" - Man law supporter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
