Go to Speed Inc's web page. Their is a update on their shop car SOM. With a base tune, on pump gas after driving 70 miles in trafic it runs a 10.77@128.6 on a 17inch Nitto. Mind you this is with only seeing 7-8psi on a 15psi set up. It goes to show you these guys are top notch and so is there tunning, to be able to drive a big cube blower car 70 miles in rush hour and get these times. Look for this car to post some sick times in the future. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

 

what was his 60' <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

 

1.6 something! <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

 

what kinda heads and cam? I'm not really impressed, too many unknowns about the car.

 

Is it a full weight car? if so to go 128 is making some power considering its only making 7 pounds. my car is 3677 and it would take a truckload of power for me to go that fast.

RGR heads, and a comp cam with I believe 236/246 @.050, hydraulic roller.

Raceweight was 3,640

 

Is it really that impressive? I'm not sure. 414 cubes with 8psi of boost? That car has some serious work done to it too.

I'm not knocking it. 10.7@129 is fast as hell, but that's what I'd expect from a car with all those mods.

 

not knocking it but a lot of big cube-only cars run those times, and those with the nitrous do MUCH better than that... maybe there are other variables?

also- why is the hood/top of car painted black?
i would hardly call that stylish if thats what they were goin for... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

yes...

MMMMkay, those guys are pulling 1.4 and 1.5 60ft's on 17in nittos?

I guess we'll have to work on our launch <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

maybe they arent on nittos, but you're allowed to have a slick too <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Come on guys this is a street car on 17inch Nitto's, I was impressed, yes it has alot of work done but for a ruff tune and only 7-8 psi on a 15 psi setup I think it's great. If you guys are inpressed by that formula how can you put down this car. Buy the time it see's 15psi and a slick it will probably see 9's. But it seems every one here is a dyno warrior. If dyno's matter I would be in 9's but I am not.

 

In the pic's you can see that the car does not have ABS or A/C, but it does have a sheetmetal intake!
That's one serious machine <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

This what I'm talking about...All that power was made from the Stock 346 and stock bottom end...
10.15 @140

 

yea... im MUCH more impressed with the horsepower stores car... 140mph from the stock bottom end... can you say CRAZY

 

O.K lets put spray and a slick on the Camaro and see what it runs, makeing it fair racing. As for the cubes fine it does have an advantage, but the point was to see how extream they could go and be streetable, this is just the first outing, not the finished project. Next time I'll wait till it's done to tell everyone. Petty, whining bitches.

 

That 140mph pass was with slicks and two power adders FYI.

I convoyed up with the Speed Inc Sunset Dream and I went 11.1@122mph NA and they drove around me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
