Watcha Think!


General Disarray

Recommended Posts

My friend has a Geo Metro with a PVC intake and a custom vacuum cleaner motor turbo with PVC intercooler pipes and a Mack intercooler. I think he has some more power with the addition of stickers, custom frenched tails, smoked headlights, 10" spinners, and a F1 style spoiler on the roof

Do you think my 1995 volvo 850 turbo with a rebuilt turbo and rebuilt head will take him on? Or will I have to do some extra mods to my car? I believe a card board body kit might give me a better chance.

You would pull on him once your turbo spools, but that doesnt happen until like 3000RPM so you better make it a long race. If its hot out though his PVC piping might heat soak less than yours as well.

:lol: The card board body kit will probably give you a fighting chance... honestly tho, its not looking to good for you. How many stickers are on this car? (each sticker = 10hp) ;) . As long as he doesnt have a hood scoop you should be good.

But stickers give you more torque than HP so the Geo might not need the scoop at all.

I think we're all kinda thinkin the same thing here actually.... YOUR SCREWED

DONT CRUSH HIS HOPES AND DREAMS MAN!!!! I think we all one day want to be able to beat a Metro and if he wants to step into that dealm then let him give his very best 100% effort of a try. I wouldnt go there not yet, I mean Im only running 37.5 psi!!
