Nice kill either way, whether the driver sucked or not.

As much as I'm personally tired of 4 bangers, the 3S-gte is one of the few greats (along with the GM ecotec, sr20det, 4g63t, and ej25 (H4)...)
if he is putting down 265... thats enough to beat a stock SS with 3 people in it..

^ I didn't say it wasn't...

BUT, 15psi and 18psi is a big enough difference.................

Still not saying it's impossible though.

Well, the stock turbo maxes out normally around 225rwhp or at most 230. 15psi is about 3-4psi higher than stock and is normal for a bolt-on 2, I'm not calling complete bs but I will say that this one is verrrrrrry subject - most likely the SS driver was not the greatest.
3sgte is a great engine, I'd never own another one though b/c it's just too much of a pain to work on. The timing belt literally took me and anther guy (both with adequate mechanics skills) 2 and a half days to get off, replaced, lined back up, and tensioned correctly.

lol well bro my motor is a jdm 93 motor, it has the ceramic turbo i have dyno sheets im putting down 252rwhp (that was before my intercooler piping). that and my car having some light weight stuff like wheels, bumper (fiberglass not ricy), and seats and steering wheel and me driving (not trying to brag) trust me it's possible! like i said before i was shocked i beat a ss! im 100% sure the guy couldnt drive but that doesnt change the fact that i beat him. if you cant drive your car dont pick a fight with other people otherwise it'll end up like that race. eitherway i noticed your near the fort worth area...im in arlington. maybe we could race your LT1 against my MR2 just for fun. im sure you put about the same power if not more then the ss! if you get me by 6 cars as you said in your last post then i'll come back on here and say im sorry i raced a v6 with a beefy exhaust and ss exterior accents

lol im down. but concedering that the ss had 3 people in it and he's going to have just 1 person i think he should have the guy who's recording in his car. that way it'll be at least 2 people in his car vs my one person. that should make it a little more even.
