Hmm, had a new Tundra single cab 5.7 beat me in mom's 06 Grand Prix
A Prius would probably beat my current 4 banger 03 Eclipse GS A4
Got beat once by a boosted Civic on a roll but then he refused to race me from a dig. All the Civics I raced from a dig I beat in the old TA. Most Civic guys out here make high hp motors but don't get the car hooking to make it even worth it

I have been beat already. My buddy who has a 600+whp evo on a mustang dyno, beat me earlier this year from a roll. I can beat myself with my own import. My evo went 10.59 at 133 100whp ago. I will race any one worth racing( im not going to waste my time on riced out civics, v6 camaros and mustangs etc.) If it says nice out R6 cowboy set it up. Hell I still need to run you. preferably from a dig is what i would like( To see if i can hold off that 650+whp supra). I know brandon told you what i can 60ft on the stock clutch. Just wait til i get a clutch that can handle 5k+ launches then im hoping for some really impressive 60fts.

To give you an idea, my vette makes in the neighborhood of 430hp/400tq at the wheels, and it is SLOOOWWW compared to my friend's Supra I'm referring to. Dan and I were going to meet up and see how my c5 stacks up to his c6z. Thru a disclosed sourse, I already know his makes a decent amount more power them mine. My dyno graph is just about identical to a stock c6z dyno graph. Not sure if its going to pan-out this year tho. But I am planning on taking the car this saturday to the Fast Motorsports grand opening shindig.

Is Brandon doing dyno pulls that day? Just curious if he's setting up a schedule or something. Switching out a couple things, wouldn't mind throwing it on the dyno to see if it will hold boost to redline.

I'm not sure. Wouldn't mind going to pick his brain on some things. Hope he's not weird because I ended up going to ams. I don't hold anything against him, understand he was busy. What type of dyno is he looking to get?

I have no issue with "tuners" or "imports".
I just hate civics with a passion. And the people who mod them in my area are the definition of tasteless. Ugly riced out FWD piles of **** with obnoxious exhausts that in no way sound good.
Nothing wrong with tastefully modded import sports cars. Especially AWD/RWD platforms designed to be sporty.

I had a 1994 Nissan Sentra with a 1.6L motor. It would not make it up a steep hill unless I had a running start. The rocker panels were all rusted out and it bent in half when I drove over the train tracks at 60 mph.
Junked it! Thank God.

thats why I put a LS1 in a Nissan, so when I get owned its just a KA24de with an exhaust leak, and win I win its still a KA24 with an exhaust leak. works both ways, works for a while untill your business gets put out on the street,
