Witnessed probably a 94-99 Mitsubishi 3000GT vr4 with headers/exhaust/cai/ and boost controller running 14 psi beat down a 98-02 ss LS1 camaro w/ atleast exhaust from a dig. That part I understand. Then they raced from about a 40 roll and the vr4 was still pulling on him, I thought the AWD would screw the 3000GT from a roll.

Both cars were manuals by the way. I stopped and talked to the guy in the Vr4, but the guy in the ls1 drove off.

300bhp/ton

Anythings possible, why's it so hard to believe?

vr4 with bolt-ons will walk a stock to near stock ls1 pretty easily. here is a site where they have staged upgrades and the first stage is for "pesky Ls1's" http://www.dynamicracing.com/customer/home.php?cat=49,

this is matt monets site, he holds the record for the fastest full interior,no nitrous vr4 in the united states with a 10.696@133.456

Sounds normal to me. The VR4 prolly had 50+ awhp over stock.

The awd does hurt alittle from a roll but Turbos make most of there power in the higher RPM so it kinda equals it up a bit and I believe the VR4 is a 6spd so it has the gears for a roll... I could be wrong I kinda pulled that outta my *** but it sounded good in my head

Yeah, that seems about right with equal drivers. Anything can happen on the street though, with all the variables. I checked out that sight and got a good laugh at each stage being aimed at a different STOCK car. Too bad there aren't that many stock LSx cars out there, at least none that I have run into. I know mine isn't

yea my friends at stage 4 "Snake Skinner" and i put a fender on him when he is on 14psi and me on motor. we still havn't set a race up with me on the juice and him on 21psi.

the 6 speed depends on the year, the ealier modles 90-95 were all 5 speeds and 300 at the crank., the 96-99 were 6 speeds and were rated at 320 at the crank

that website is funny, it says "slowmarows" thats pretty gay, race stock for stock and see if the camaro is a "slowmarow."

stock the vest VR4 time I have seen published was 13.0X although I have never seen it equaled.

Man, never underestimate the power of a 3000 GT VR4! The sons-a-bitches are bad right out of the box...and with a little wrench work....the f*ckers are quick! You better have some mods and you better have you ***** tucked in just right when you try to race one. Some times they will stun you.

I'm not surprised at all...I helped my buddy install a manual boost controller on his car, and that fugger woke the hell up. From a dig, he murdered me. From a roll, I got him by about a car. His was a '92. Mine was stock at the time.

They can go. I raced one from a dig that all modded to hell and doing a 5K launch. I barely got him by a car at the 1320 in the Cobra. It was the first time I'd seen him race in over a year cause he's on his 4th tranny. Fast butt car for sure.

Nothing a 150 shot or a 200 shot cant fix to put them in their place, lol.

OverLord

so for about 2k they can he pushing 430? i hope theres more supporting mods needed then that, or im about to pick up one of those lol.

CharlieCobra03

Oh, you can get the power but the weak link is the tranny. Unless ya have 20K sitting around for a dogbox.

That's true, but as the ol' saying goes...."spray me and I'll spray you back"......they can NOS too!

I make the power in my sig on a easy shot of nitrous with plenty of room to up the shot. He can spray but risks blowing it up more than i am. That V6 can only handle so much boost/nitours before it blows.

For $500 I picked up more hp than that.
