Dude, who'd a thunk that a car with 2.5X the number of cylinders would be fast!
TZL, I'm surprised you even humored him for a second!

don't forget 4 times the displacement....lol
well i know WRXs are fast, two of my good friends have them, they hang well on our weekend mountain runs.
i mean how knows, he might have had some crazy Jun 2.5L stoker kit and/or huge turbos, plus when someone slows to line up with you, and then downshifts twice, you have to find out what they got.

I remember seeing a video of a 1000 HP turboed Viper on the freeway. Some a$$face pulled up like he wanted to race and the viper just left it like it was standing still at a stoplight. Total comedy.

It sounded like that Viper was an automatic, it that true? Also, what are the specs on that thing?

I can't imagine pulling up on that thing in a Vishnu Stage 3 or something thinking you're gonna beat a Viper and have the thing just run off on you. I would be like Shiv WTF?!?!?! hahaha

Dear god, what are they trying to accomplish? That is absolutely freaking unreal. I don't really understand the point of the nitrous though. Is that so make sure that the rear tires have absolutely no chance whatsoever of maintaining grip in any gear?

just b/c it adds more power....hehe
acutally i think it helps spool off the line.
Big single turbo supras run a little 50 shot to help get off the line too!

yup, it was breaking traction on the dyno too....that thing easy puts out over 1000 hp at the wheels with NOS....probably a nice 900+ rwhp without

i heard on that dyno run ben couldnt get his car to get traction on the dyno. Thats some raw power for sure. I dont think anyone would want to run into that thing.
