Good run Thomas. Wouldn't expect it to be that fast. I've seen 16g DSMs that are dogs.
You buy a real horn yet?

nope, my horn suck ***!!! it helps if i get that slight jump cuz as soon as the boost rolls in i spin and loose ground. the runs with monsta and the silver vett was like our 2nd run, you get out good and i spin spin spin hook. they got a good 2-3mph jump on me and held it, lol i asked if the would go off my hit and they both said no.good times guys for sure, i cant wait to get the galant out and run you guys on the bottle. that car ran 11.3@ 120mph rolling threw the traps breaking 4th gear with 450hp. before it dropped 2 valves it dynoed 596hp 518lbs of torque at 27psi on a mustang awd dyno. car is full weight and has ac. car traps 103mph spinning 1st, 2nd and 3rd gear while finishing the 1/8 in 4th.

I guess that's what a 1000lb difference does...

Damn Bastard/aka Thomas, when you gonna take that turbo tuner skill and apply it to Domestic V8's? Cheaper, muchmuch more reliable and faster if done right! And if your previous cars are an example, you can "do it right". Though to be the best, you are gonna end up breakin **** on as average a basis as you no doubt are now! Just that you'll be pulling 8 second 1/4 miles instead of 9's and 10's. mph will probably be the same though.

The shop car sounds sick. Surprised it's trapping only 120 with 596whp. Does it weigh alot?

I'm confused between the specs on the colt and the galant. Or is it not a colt like everyone says? I think a mirage is the same thing. Thought you were turning up the which on the colt/mirage?

the colt is the 2dr hatch thing. The mirage and the galant are the 4 dr version of it.

Well, a Mirage is the same thing as a Colt. They are available in 2 door hatchback and 4 door sedan bodystyles (compact size).

A Galant is a different model, a midsize sedan.

a buddy of mine used to have a 4g63 powered colt that was GUTTED. I think he said it only weighed like 1800lbs. It was bare bones though. It made around 350whp. quick little car. it was very unsuspecting looking except the fact that it had no front bumper and a huge intercooler. i think it was on a 16g turbo also
