Eastern Members - my car

since dyno day i have been getting alot of questions regarding my setup on my car and if people should go with heads/cam or go with a procharger ....i went with a procharger because ive always wanted a supercharged car and now i finally have one. later on i can add heads/cam tailored to a boosted car and swap a pulley and retune for more power. me being a nice guy if anyone in the area is on the fence about it i can show you my car and take you for a spin ....it has to be a nice day and i need a heads up cause of my schedule ...and on another note i would highly recommend don at slowhawk for his work,knowledge, and tuning capabilities.

Next time I see you, Ill give you a ride in the Buick (which SHOULD be a bit faster then), and you can give me a ride in the SS. Then a a race or two for the hell of it. Dig/Roll, either doesn't bother me.. But I will be spinning through first and second from a Dig.. If we do a roll, 60 is where it likes to be..

hahhah i dont know if im gonna trust someone that just got there license to give me a ride in there first car especially with the torque that thing is making!!! ill bring my helmet with me lol i would do a quick race for the hell of it and from 60 is fine with me i can be in third which is where my car likes to be !! but in a few weeks i will finally have some mickeys onthe back of it so we will see what my car can actually do in 1st and 2nd gears. im sure that buick of yours can get up and go ....as a side note i was your age and did the same shit but just be very careful and dont do stupid shit with the car i am still paying a shitload for insurance for my past when i was young. and your young and dont want to hurt anyone or hurt yourself

Haha, you could drive it if you want. I honestly don't mind. I don't blame you haha. I am usually careful. If I endanger anyone, its always myself and never another person. Anything I do is open road and no one in the car, late at night. Anyways, your car is mean! I don't expect to hang very long at those speeds.. Considering my car is a brick and you pack 230 more HP! But, until I get tires on this thing, its useless from a dig.. Tires will be a bit down the road after I melt off these BFG's.

hahaha its all good man you can drive ill bring the helmet ...you def do have a somewhat sleeper car though if i ever pulled up next to it i would never thing it has 500ft# torque !! just be safe with it and well all have to meet up soon again

We should do a little meet up with some cars and if anyone wants to ride or check out someone's car they can. Not going to sit here and promote street racing but we all know it happens so if people wanna be smart about it maybe a little of that. I'm in RI but willing to drive to Mass if people want to meet up.

Sounds fine to me. I always like to meet fellow car guys.

Let me know. I'm down whenever before I go back to work on May 6th

Anyone else but us 3 interested? What are you driving Jared? Just curious..

99 SS bolt ons, M6, 12 bolt, 315 drag radials. Nothing special. I was at the dyno day. Was near the garage door next to the big truck. Black car with black dd zr1 rims and tint. Jared8 on plate lmao

Hahah, well I don't really remember plates, but I certainly remember the car. Your car is probably more my league.... Gangsta's car is going to hand me my ass on a silver platter..

Nah. I'll run either lol. Traction is key. 02/gangsta/ss spins 1st, 2nd and 3rd. I don't have enough power to do that hahahah. He would still prob pass me but I think I could get him off line for awhile. It would be fun

you forgot some of fourth lol im getting drag radials in a few weeks finally putting on a pair of mickeys so i will finally have traction i can also start out in 3rd lol hahha

Yea then I'm screwed haha. We'll have to try before and after. I actually haven't ran many people so I suck lol

Half of my four gears are useless. If I launch the car at 5 PSI (max my crappy 235's will hold), I spin up to about 45-50 MPH. I can get a decent launch if I go from idle, but once the turbo spools... Back to spinning.. I make a little less torque than Gangsta IIRC.

If its warm I chirp first, occasionally spin a few feet then just hook. Unless I totally bomb the launch. Once they start spinning it'll go into 2nd leavin rubber. I need more power!!!!

need to get you some drag radials your torque is crazy its like an 18 wheeler torque

lol i dont spin in 6th

This is a quick 0-60 from an idle launch. This is at 20PSI and before I got a decent tune on her..

How can you even read the speedo lmao

80's quality for the win! For that run, I just videoed the speedo, but I was watching my scan tool. It's more accurate.

thats called the good ole 80's and thats all torque

when you hit 88 you will go back in time ...too bad it only goes to 85 lol

The car is pretty badass. Even stock form they are impressive. I give you props for being different. Everyone goes v8 in cars like that. Always thought a turbo 6 that was that fast was cool. And the 500 ft/lbs is another story lol

Lmfao. He can't beat us. He can only do 85mph!!!

just sucks that he can get to 85 really fast !!

Lmfao. He can't beat us. He can only do 85mph!!!

"Officer... I swear, I was only going 85!"

Just keep a gopro with you and record it lmao

Been looking to invest in one of those. Sometime soon. Ever use one? Any good?

My friend has one. The HD one. It's awesome. I want one. I want to use it on my bikes. The field of view is impressive. He stuck it to inside drivers window and you could see out passenger side window (it was facing the front of the car to see gauges/straight ahead).

I'm looking forward to checking out the ride man. I couldn't sell my combo that's in my sig like 6months ago to go procharged...always want a supercharged SS too :judge:. I really wanna see the difference of a boosted stock car compared to a strong h/c cam with gears.

yah no prob man ...my car is boosted and has different gears

Most of you guy's need tires. GN's need alot of suspension work to hook. My GN wouldn't hook WOT till I was rolling atleast 80mph. Not due to too much power, just lack of weight transfer.

Suspension and tires coming soon. Have a brand new rear-end set-up from Hotchkiss and a new sway bar from Hellwigg. I also plan to fix my exhaust manifold leak, pull some fuel, and add a transmission that can hold up to the power... And a paint job... :D..

Should help a bit. The GNX setup hooks good.
Also your car makes 360-400tq. Remember I said the dyno torque reading was screwed on your run..

I do remember. I consulted an expert in the Turbo Buick world, and he said the torque numbers are consistent with a car in my HP range with the converter unlocked. OR the HP numbers are low, and in that case the torque is high. These cars make a lot of torque..
