what a LIAR!!!

[98COBRA281]

my '01 bullitt showroom stock besides 275/40 nittos ran 13.33 at 102.2 on a 1.86 60ft. 13.58 at 101.8 on the stock tire, 1.98 60ft. the car dynoed 239-240rwhp SAE on about 3 different 248c dynojets in houston. that car would have never trapped 107 - lol

thank you

but you dont have gears and what tires were you runnin, and what rpm were you droppin at

wheelspin can also inflate mph on the top end.

Have you noticed yet you're the only one in this thread that took the dyno number and put a 1/4 mile number assumption to it?

I was using it as an example, to show how dyno numbers can be different. Everyone here took it as 246whp = 107!

Think a little bit outside the box and stop regurgitating what others have said before you.

Ding ding ding...we have a winner. So many varibles go into trap speeds.

My times are consistant 13.8's but the trap speeds ranged from 97-103. Pretty big disparity. If I added another 10 HP I do belive I could get a 107 trap.

Along with altitude, air temperature, air humidity, track prep. Etc. Too many variables guys.

thats what ive been tryin to say my self they are so worried about hp numbers and they are forgetting torque, rear gears, traction, a lot of stuff. if a new honda si with 250 fwhp and say 180 fwtq lines up against a 2v with 250 rwhp and say 290 rwtq which one would win. think about it. hp numbers are just that a number so much more goes into et's that that.

This conversation was never about ET.

All you needed to have said is 246rwhp can mean even a 107 trap speed, or 100 - because dyno's don't mean much. Stop defending putting your foot in your mouth, we're all saying the same thing because we all read the same stupid comment.

Here's thinking outside the box, stop trying to "educate" people with stuff they already know. Dyno's don't mean much of anything, they are a tool - no way! The deliver of the truth is upon us! This isn't supraforums, we tend to favor track times. Go to any build thread, people post numbers - then they're like okay.... take it to the track.

Only reason people jumped on you is because you made a stupid assumption - or at least said it that way, regardless of what you were thinking.

I'm not trying to defend "putting my foot in my mouth" as I haven't.........yet. The only assumptions that were made was that a certain dyno number = a certain ET/MPH. This was the point that I was trying to make considering the WHOLE CONVERSATION was about some guy lying about either his mods or his numbers.

 

[CobraRed_96_GT]

I say just race him, that way we don't have to bicker about trivial stuff

 

[crazystang25]

ya excuse me for the et's there was a part earlier in the discussion about et's and thats where that came from. but trap speeds have a lot of variables too.
