You all remember that video floating around that had the old 95ish gold 4door Saturn that was beating that SS and other cars....never found out what was done to it or if the video was real. Maybe someone can bring it back from the dead.

Basic bolt ons give Ions 300WHP? Wow. I'll have to look into that. Makes me wonder what the Solstice GXP will do with some basic mods then. Maybe GM uped their game on the Ecotech.

I just purchased one of those Ion Red Lines for my wife (I hate driving go-karts) and its quick enough and fairly light too. With little work it could be putting more than enough down to give some with no mods a few problems. I believe the Red Lines consistantly put down any where from 195 to very close the the 205 on a dyno (at least what has been reported, I haven't tried it myself).

I'm sorry if I offend any ion lovers, but that thing was not for me! I don't care how much HP it puts out!
Good kill though! I would love to have been in the seat of that 'Vette when he got walked by an ION!

If that Saturn outran a Vette......the Vette had to be a 1985 Crossfire Injection car.....which means it was pretty much worthless. I can outrun a 1985 Crossfire Vette with my damn 4000lb. 4X4 truck!
This is not a kill worht talking about. Sorry guys.
