Default Turbo RSX vs Z28 camaro vid

I when out to this local meet in Mexico to get some runs! I went last week and ran an STI so I when back this past weekend. I get there and look around and all I see is Imports. Last week when I went I didn't get to look around, I got out of my car and the STI guy came up to me and said lets run them I said ok. I got back in my car and we ran them, I went back to the meet and everybody was gone. I'm there at this meet and it is all imports, not clean ones like in the fast in the furious. They are the riced out ones, the p.o.s. I know a guy there so I chill with him for a minute. I ask him to set me up with a race, he seem to know everybody there. He tells me ok he will be right back. He comes back and tells me Im to fast, no one wants to run me because I beat the STI last week. I laugh and ask him are you serious. So I see this RSX with a intercooler, I ask the owner what you got done he said every thing but a resleved block. I asked him how much power is he pushing, he said 330-350. I told him lets run them, he said I'm to fast. I told him I have 350 right now that I have missfire. He said f**k it lets go.

Was he not making the power he claimed? Nice kill nonetheless. What are the specs on the cam your running? And what size turbo was the RSX running?

And just a thought, you might want to go back and revise the grammar a bit, just trying to save you from getting corrected by everyone else!

You should post the STi kill vid if you have it too

Dude??? What the hell was that? Holy Crap!
You just put a hurting on the RSX.
Nice kill man.. Seems like you have to find another "spot" where there is a little more competition for you.

BTW..do you think he was really at 330 to 350 Hp? Seems like you pulled away pretty hard. If he was legit, I am assuming you are over 400Hp?

Probably on a base tune and kid couldn't drive. Was an easy kill for a hot cammed LS1. Why do they call it a hot cam? I'd rather have a pimp cam or a baller cam.

The hot cam specs, 219/228 .525 lift on a 112.
I'm do not know what size turbo he had. I dont know about turbo sizes so I didn't ask. He siad he is getting a bigger turbo this week and he wants to run me after it is installed. He wants me to go back this weekend. He said he will be pushing 20psi and 700hp. I call, if I do run him I get it on video and post it. My grammer is bad because I'm mexican and can't speak spell or type in ENGLISH, I have a heavy accent. When I was in high school they threw me in E.S.L. with my people. I was not good enough to learn with the white kids. Now I have to take college english next semester. Grammer ***** please do me a favor and point out all my mistakes.

Whoever that talked in the video sounded American English lol - The RSX is not built i can gaurantee that. He'd be neck n neck with a freakin stock LS1... Probably all stock, just an ebay turbo kit if they are all "ricers"

The voice you hear at first is the owner of the RSX. The second voice (that was no competition) is my friend.

Dang! (Joe Dirt voice)

I would have left that roach at the gas station with it running and the keys in the ignition with a 6pk of Heiniken (sp) on the seat, end of story-

You know there are much better cams than the Hotcam these days, no offense, just mentioning it

I know there are better cams out there. My car had it when I bought it, I just reused it. It's not the best cam or the worst cam. 398rwhp 400rwtq with a hotcam, 1 3/4" headers, magnaflow, udp, with a ls6 intake I can't complain. A cold day dyno pull would put me over 400. When I dynoed the car it was 100* outside. A fast 102, retune and a cold day I hope I hit 430.

He's a ricer jerkoff.

He's going from 300whp (if he's lucky) to 700 in one weekend? Good joke.

Whoop his *** again.

I changed my plugs and wires now the missfire is gone. ohh yeah

First day I got the car I dynoed it, it put down 350rwhp 360rwtq, I have done some mods since, same dyno. In texas we have happy dynos, dyno your car in texas. The
dyno I use is at a mustang shop, the dyno guy asked me what am I expecting? Told him no less then 380 no more then 410. He looked impressed with the results. It's a dyno jet not a mustang dyno.

Like you said B91formula, numbers dont mean ****. I have raced a 500rwhp kenny bell 05'ish 3 valve mustang, it was dead even. Who ever got the jump stayed there and held the lead. If we took off at the same time who ever let off first lost. I ran him like 6 times, same results every time.

Reminds me of an enemy in high school who claimed he made 500whp in his single cam boosted D16 and I walked him with just a catback, gears, and stall.

Hate guys who lie about the power they make Especially when inflated and being serious about it

Btw, nice kill!

Car runs strong for a hot cam ls1

Good murder!

I hear you on the everyone being afraid thing. I've been cruising up to the local spot the last couple weeks and the only people out so far are younger guys that are pretty new to the hobby. Still, there are a few cars that would be a good race for the G8 and a couple that should beat me easily, but most of them are afraid of my stock 13 second car, haha. I thought maybe they didn't race at first, but then they go out and race each other. They just want nothing to do with my car.

I can't wait to pull in with the Camaro. I haven't mentioned that I have it yet so that should be amusing
