Default (VIDEO) Turbo Integra Vs. 575whp HP61 Skittle

Just thought I'd post this since I know how much skittles are beloved on this forum. He had just come from the dyno and made 500/480 on a mustang dyno here in town that reads about 15-20% low. The vid says 600+ because I was misinformed about his #'s.... but the owner of the skittle gave me the true #'s. The chase car is a C6 Corvette who claims he's only making 525-550rwhp

The video also didn't really look like the cars, except the 'Vette, were really high powered. The Integra took off, yeah. But the skittle just kind'a.. went put put.


Excellent footage, though!

Vegas. If any Vegas PD strolls through here its really easy to figure out where they are doing it.

Nice spot for footage and the integra is pretty quick from a couple of his other vids

i have had a couple cars with more than 500rwhp, and it certainly seems like you were being fed typical tuner numbers....300whp in their eyes = 500whp statements.

His Integra makes WELL over 500whp... that Neon would have been ***-raped if it had only been 300whp.

guess it was the angle of the camera or something, but i remember my 85 camaro with 512rwhp 600rwtq seemed a whole hell of a lot faster.
like i said, must be the angle

i know the pwr the integra makes but if you look at the wheels of the srt it looks like hes cruising till the last few seconds of the video then takes off.
