J0E Posted September 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 hahaha Joe did it again... it's rather amusing how he can just suck people in like that. props.Even though I'm an arrogant, condescending asshole, I wasn't trying to piss anyone off here. Honest. Back on topic, running on the same state of tune, the Supra is the faster car out of the group. It will be very interesting to see how the Porsche will hang, but at this point it's just a battle of WHP. Unfortunately, I'm not at liberty to disclose the Porsche's WHP figures, but I will tell you that it made 340 to the wheels on 87 octane and as low a boost level as possible. At its own game though, the Nova will smoke nearly any car around off-the-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matt1122 Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 I'd say that XC was more wack than wacked out. The IC wasn't even connected.It was a project in process, target HP is 650 but I don't know when or if we'll find otu how it turned out in the end, if it gets finished now that miss snotty no racing is in charge.Nice videos, but "Bay Area Style"... Ya, hard core Bay Area....Gotta watch out for those electrics, too.I will hand it to you guys, you have the biggest range of cars out there.

This past february (I think), I saw it at the Toronto Auto Show, which was long after they'd come up with it, so if they haven't finished building the thing yet, I'm curious as to why they're still showing it off.I'd say that XC was more wack than wacked out. The intercooler wasn't even connected.Not too sure how you worked that one out. All I'm really saying is, I'd like one.Cheers,Al Edit: Who the hell is 'miss snotty no racing?'

Owned Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 Gotta watch out for those electrics, too.I'd rather race you from a dig in a turbo Prius than most Volvos around. ~550 foot pounds @ 6 PSI? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuckV986 Posted October 3, 2005 Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 What turbo is in that Supra?I'm impressed by how well that Porsche moves... I thought that Camaro would take it given the weight difference. 3900lbs is a LOT of weight. I'd like to see more cars like that in my area... not all tha common. Cobra is putting down 422whp, and there are VERY few cars in my imediate area that will keep up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
