270 HP?!?!? Yea, in his dreams...

I was thumbing through the craigslist classifieds when I came across this and almost threw something at the computer screen.. http://www.craigslist.org/sby/car/165306786.html

I mean, what is this guy thinking? It really irritates me everytime I see something like this on a classified site.. Some poor guy/gal out there is going to buy this car thinking it has that much power with ONLY exhaust and TB... sorry, just had to rant...

Other than that, it looks fairly clean..

WTF is an accelerometer test

Probably one of those in-car gadgets that you see in magazines that measure your 0-60 and calculate hp by judging by the weight of the car or some crap. He probably entered the gross max. weight of 4400 lbs (on the door sticker) to get that figure.

And 245's on an 18x9 wheel

Not a bad car overall though

tell me about it: there's this kid who thinks he's got 290 out of a 97 4.6 w/ an accu*** TB and exhaust.

 

[ProKiller]

ask him for a dyno sheet

 

[drakesdad]

You guys are being biased........think before you talk...
Any true racer/mechanic knows you get 50hp from chrome tips on your exhaust and at least 75hp with those slotted rotors.....

[1TallMF]

You're right. My bad.

 

[94GTPilot]

Ahhh.... I completely overlooked the tips and rotors.. It makes perfect sense now!!

 

[drakesdad]

I've been thinking about getting some tips....but I want the ones that split into two..that would be four tips........That's equal to at least a 100 shot of NOS..........

270hp,
But it does look pretty nice. Just needs to lose the 4x4 stance.

A drop job and a few other upgrades would have that car in really good shape....

My car has 783 horsepower (rear seat delete, tips, smoked headlights)

I put down 785...loser. You need chrome valve stem caps to hang with me.

someone didnt put in the correct weight. 270hp i've heard and seen a few factory freaks but 270 no way.
