Default Trans Am vs K20 CRX

Trans Am- trex cam, full bolt ons and 4.11s
CRX- gutted, K20 swap, intake and full exhaust. But according to his youtube video I just saw it was a K24 block with a K20 head. From what I understand the car should make mid to low 200's at the wheels and probably weighs ~1300-1400 lbs less than me.

40 rolls.

Nice runs man!!
That CRX is going to need a turbo with some descent boost to hang with you. You really started running away from him as speeds increased.

I'm supposed to be running his buddy with a supercharged K24 vs me on the bottle here in the next few weekends. Should be some more good runs.

The T56 is not happy and I'm just trying to make it last until winter, then hopefully the car will go stalled auto.

I think that's what he was doing! I think I heard munch* munch* in between the shifts.

Good kill, crx can be a pretty fast car with the right stuff obviously. With turbo I think you might of seen taillights.

Nice runs. The K24 with SC might give you a run. Just depends on his whole set up really.

The CRX gets a nice turbo set up you will be in trouble.

All I've got to off of is ricer math but the SC K24 ran side by side with a 480 whp Evo. I made 505 on 100 shot and the race will be on a 150 so it should be a good race.

I got walked in my G8 when I was 489whp. He was 430whp. I got it even worse before I had my nitrous issue fixed. I was 370 he was still 400..It was really really bad.

Booster k20's are pretty serious. Just a matter of if they can hook. Theres 2 around here and theyre always like "cool, well run, from a 70 roll."

Good kills! Setups on those cars always interest me because you get the guys with a big turbo that can't run for **** and then the guys with a seemingly mild setup that run real strong. Never know what you'll get.

The integra owner kept complaining because he wanted to run to 145-150. Im not sure how he thought he was going to make up that much ground and pull me with an extra 20 mph.

A well built CRX is a scary little thing. No weight to em and with power and traction they can be very quick.

When some of em are running ebay turbo kits and what not and others have proper setups you can get a very very wide variety of outcomes from similar setups. I used to know a guy with a 500hp ish single cam 2001 civic coupe. Used to surprise a LOT of people with it as it looked fairly stock.

Nice runs. That car's gonna be a monster from a dig with the stalled auto and a tire. Gonna need a big *** stall with that cam, as well.

Well the plan was to do it this winter. My tuner texted me today (he currently has the car) mentioning that he has a 4L80 and would be interested in buying the T56 when I pull it out. Anyways long story short, crunched some numbers and the swap begins tomorrow. Should be rowdy.
