Falcone Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 that old e30 did 14.066, so much fun to drive being rwd, big change from volvo, both very rewarding none the less. I still miss her, but am compensating, was t-boned by an old man with a hat (I hate them) in a parking lot. I will get another one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falcone Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 yes oreo, that was directed at you and your purdy 850. As for mods, some boring out of the intake mani, exhaust mani, basically breathing like a non asthematic child. They are fun blocks to work on, hence why I started this thread, to gain more ideas for my blue n/a. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcone Posted August 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 I wish mine was a five speed, but I still love her. How could you not love a Volvo? Regardless of anything else, she's still a Volvo. You close to K-Town? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHARGER69O1 Posted August 21, 2008 Report Share Posted August 21, 2008 Located near shannonville. Heres the slip for all you non-believers and slow turbo's. Sorry trap speed was 143.25, not 143.52 as previously stated. It is very possible.so where are all the n/a cars on here, or have they all been scared away by turbo lovers (don't get me wrong, I love and have both, just like each for different reasons).Ok so I'm not so good with kph, but the slip here shows in the 1/8th mile you ran 8.015 @ 79.95 kph...and IIRC that should be about 50mph how does that work? I run 8.50s and 8.60s all day long @ 77-80mph......I dont see how you can get to the 8th @ 50mph in a 8.0 seconds from a dig. I like n/a's and all but that time doesn't make much sense to me. I may be just confused. <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
