lets not bring up the aztek lol it was a giant waste of time and money...

I used to be a car salesman. I worked for the Dodge dealership here in town. We got a used Aztek on a trade in and when I quit a year later it was still for sale. We couldn't give that fucker away.

Yeah, the Aztek wasn't the best looking. Would still take it over other vehicles though.

Yeah, obviously not married lol. Its a lot easier to get what i want, if she gets whats. And to be honest, i don't want to get her crap. She wants to be competitive. She likes burning ricers just as much as i do. By the way, in regards to this original thread; i'm seeking heads+cam+n20 for my next encounter. I should be getting my lid in today, and i'm also ordering cut-outs today, to be in next week. Also, what would be a good older car to drop an LS1 into (60s-70's)

Why don't you pick up a RWD import ricer car like mine that weighs in the 2000lbs range. Drop the LS1 in that and run mid 11s with bolt ons.

Get a stock one, that hasn't been riced like this:

.... for under $1500 and have at it.

Listen to this guy...

Have you done a tune up yet, plugs and wires, fuel filter?

So far, I have purchased a computer controlled Progressive Nitrous controller:

the HSW sudden impact wet plate nitrous kit

Fuel pressure gauge, and fuel pressure safety switch

Lid + High flow filter

a Quicktime Electronic Exhaust cut-out (not installed yet, thats going in today), and TR55 plugs, that i intend on swapping out with TR56 plugs instead. I have NOT sprayed yet, nor had any additional tuning past the stock tune. My intention is to use a resistor attached to a relay to fool the IAT anytime the system is armed to get my 3 degrees of timing pulled so i don't damage the engine. I also intend on spraying right off the line, at 1200 RPM, at 20%, then gradually increasing to 100% over 3 seconds. I'm still not 100% sold on my plans of when to spray, because i haven't actually run it yet. The car has barely 30k miles on it as of right now, and i didn't feel that wires, fuel filter, etc was in order..

Hopefully this will defend me against the SRT-4 in the future... comments welcome...

looks like your well on your way

**first01SS** · 01-12-2009, 07:50 AM

I sure hope so. He says he's got some 1400.00 turbo now, bigger injectors, and some other crap. I'm really hoping i don't get embarrassed again... Also, if you know where i can get a IAT female, and male dongle cable, that'd be appreciated....

Remember you are RWD with an A4 and nitrous. Big turbo or not.... he is FWD. If he's running a street tire and over 300whp he is going to spin his ass off, even with drag radials. Launch him from a dig and embarrass him.

From a roll it's a different story. Let me know what this $1400 turbo setup is. What's the size and trim of the turbo, how much boost is he running, and what are his supporting mods. Feed me this info and I can give a a good estimate on what the car should be making power wise and how it should be performing. Depending on the size turbo, you could be in for a hurting from a roll.

I raced an srt4 in my and beat it by like half car but my friend gto lost by 2 cars, my is a 2001 z28 M6, k&n filter, ls6 intake manifold, and still trying 2 figure out the supercharge noise o running street tires spins in 4th gear. And the gto is complete stock. also the srt4 is omost stock he said all he had was a tuner.

Looks like you all have high 13s cars.

**first01SS** · 01-13-2009, 06:32 AM

there have been no mods to his block, heads, pistons, or valvetrain. Just fuel injectors, and no line upgrades. He works in a retail store, fortunately I have the financial advantage....

money always wins, never get in a pissing match with someone with more money...

**first01SS** · 01-13-2009, 06:51 AM

With my current mods, do what kind of time do you think i'll be at? If this isn't enough, i'll be placing an order for heads+cam next week..... also, i just got my cut-out installed yesterday. That thing is God's gift to men.
