Yea, try this one. At my HS i know someone who got an $80,000 benz, didn't like it so her parents bout her a another car worth $70,000. Her Sis got a 2003 M3, and their brother got A new 911 turbo. Antother 2 kids got that new G-Wagon worthless **** this and both of them dropped 40,000 into them for interior upgrades. Two other kids I know just got M3's for their 17th birtday. Another girl I know had her parents play a joke on her by buying a used ws6, she cried, then told her her new A6 was in the back. Do I have to continue? The though of these kids a go to school with just makes me sick. That Mach 1 you see in my Sig i bought with my OWN money not Mom and Dads.

If your car is S/C'd why the SLOW HP?

We typically see a 1st GENERATION 4.6(your non PI) make about 290~300rwhp without problems and a proper tune @~8lbs.

Gluck!

When my car was tuned, I told them I was mainly looking for drivability, not max power. This is my daily driver. Plus, I don't have a 4.6.....I have a 3.8 which was estimated at approx. 290 rwhp if the dyno would've been able to record my engine RPM's as opposed to rear wheel speed. I didn't have time to let the car cool down after driving 2 1/2 hrs to the dyno.

But I think it's pretty good for a V6

Wow!

Didnt even NOTICE you had a V6(hence 232), that is some awsome numbers!

It would be a VERY close race between you both, but like i said, one slip up and its finished.

You have any gears?

Pete

no gears.......still stock airplane gears....I think they're 2.79/1 (maybe) just a guess on my part there. I'm still looking into an 8.8 with 3.73's and that should really help

My first question is not about what car he has, but can he drive?

Many fast cars perform like crap when equipped with they !Driver.

Many average cars perform like they should not when equipeed with a good, knows how to launch and drive them hard mod.

Probably. You have good hp numbers but an ASSLOAD of torque. Must be nice.

Those are some decent #'s you have there, but 42lb. injectors seem pretty big for those #s.

I am looking at making 460-480 rwhp on motor and I will be using 42lb. injectors.

Just curious.

42lb injectors are recommended (required?) for the 11psi setup if i'm not mistaken. I think its more for a "just in case" rather than a "detrimental to your engine" scenario. You can probably get away with smaller ones.

On your site you have 0-60 MPH @ 2.37 seconds...a bud of mine did the same thing...he thought that was your 60'...it is your 0-60 MPH.

Ohhh, on the side. I didn't even look at that. Yeah I don't much like car domain anyway. They have a really ghetto way of setting everything up. Anyway, thanks for the tip, I'll go take that out. Believe it or not, my car doesn't got 0-60 in 2.37 seconds.
