Anyone else not impressed with 300+- RWHP?

[Pokageek]

Is it just me? I seem to want the car to go much faster...

 

[Guero]

Now it days seems kinda low. At least to me.

 

[BlackVert]

sounds like you need to buy my blower!

it is not fast enough if you can't kick most corvettes

heck, i'd be impressed if i could just drive my car to work and back without worrying about it

Agreed. With some of the crazy new stuff out there I think with 300 rwhp you're still sitting at the kiddy table. If you're wanting the car to be faster I'm sure it'll only be a matter of time before you make it that way.

Yeah when i first did the h/c/i i felt pretty invincible. I beat a lot of things that challenged. When i raced a modded 01 Z06 that shut me the hell up(not that i thoughti would win). i think the TQ number matter alot too. because that can change the feel of the car.

Well I have the 300 hp mark beat by 12 extra hp, now add the 125 shot on top of that..... And my top secret project in the works weeellllll...... lets just say I just recieved my A4 block yesterday and a really cool box that has the letters t66 - 088 on it as well.....

That sounds pretty evil

300 RWHP is just cracking the box open.

Dude, I wish I could..well actuallyI can but me spouse would be mighty po'd, lol. Good luck with your sale.

I'm a sheep in wolf's clothing. My car sounds fast but it's barely pushing 200 to the wheels. It's pretty sad. Be happy with 300rwhp. LOL.

 

[The Green GT]

Right now Ihave about 200 RWHP. I was impressed at first, but I need more.

But hey it sounds good with no mufflers

2 years ago when I got my car I wanted to get 300 horses at the wheels. Now I am at 500, and can't wait to get a Dart block so I can go for more.
I am starting to think I am never going to be satisfied.

 

[1994Vib.RedGT]

I wish I had the $$ for 300 rwhp

 

[Ozz]

300 was pretty good for my car, but 400+ has me realizing my tranny (stock AOD so far ) definitely can't take too much. Once I upgrade that, we'll see how I REALLY feel about 400/mid-400s.

 

[Pokageek]

Good posts guys. Yeah, we always want more. I can see myself getting to the point of ..ok that's enough. I am not there yet but I will take your suggestions and enjoy what I have.

 

[Joe 5.0]

I know what you're saying. My 347 is probably around 325rwhp right now, and I already cant wait till the blower goes on.

 

[Pokageek]

347 is a or 331 is what I wanted ideally but $$$$. That's going to be bad with a blower man! Hey is that a new motor? I seem to remember times close to your acura that you posted..That must have been your old engine I am guessing..

 

[95Vert]

325hp on a 347ci. I thought it would be more, a lot more!!

Ditto that.. With your heads/intake combo on top of the 347, you should be between 370-430, depending on tune and where you live (air, elevation, humidity etc)

i was bored with high 300's after a day. high 400's to the wheels after a few days.

go much higher and it becomes a nightmare, so you just gotta pick where you draw the line..
