a few of my friends have the cars listed above, magnum/charger r/t, mazdaspeed6, and a chrysler 300c SRT-8. i was wondering how my car would do against them with mods im putting in, im not letting these guys know that im modding my car, and i dont think the guy with the mazdaspeed6 would notice just by listening to the sound of the car. o raced the speed6 already, it was close but he won, the r/ts pulled on me from a 40 roll by a few cars, and the SRT-8, dont even ask...
im modifying my car in stages (06 ss/sc). first im putting in an injen cai. torque dampener and a magnaflow catback full exhaust.

1. i know i can't take on the srt-8 yet, but how would i do against the speed6 and r/ts from a 40 roll.

the second stage of my mods: 2.7' pulley, 1 step colder ngk spark plugs, gm shortened belt, 60 lb injectors, injector wiring harness, and a tune(7000rpms redline) 17.5 psi.

2. can i take on the srt-8 with these mods??

 

How bad did you really lose againts the srt 8 cause im stock and I lost by maybe 2 cars but he definatly didn't get murdered lol all I have is airbox mod and a new clutch lol

 

well the race started at about 40mph going onto the highway, i was going all out (bone stock) and he was right on my ass but not gaining, so i was thinking his car can't be that much faster than mine, at about 90 he switched 2 lanes over and just blew by me pulling about 4 or 5 cars before 130 where i started to slow down. he was toying with me...

 

i ran an R/T. Pulled 1 car from 0-50. Id say thats not too bad.

 

no thats nto abd at all, you must have launch on him pretty good, how did it go after 50?

 

Lol oh try a 3rd gear pull that's how I was racing the guy and he would pull little by little but yea those are fast stock can imagine how they are modify lol but as soon as you mod your car get a good tune others should get smoked but the srt 8 would be a fun match record it when you do it lol

 

dude ill have all sorts of vids when we do this race, its gonna be during the summer tho, vids from the srt and from my car, and a chase car, maybe the speed6, ill set something up. i have a feeling the srt-8 would start to pull above 120, maybe headers on my list of mods would make it even?? or maybe i would win, doe sanyone have experience with srt-8s and these mods?? lol

tony how much horsepower do you have at the wheels?

 

we cut off at 50. it was on surface streets and the speed limit was 40, so we shut down.

as far as SRT8's go, they run like high 12's i think....so you'd have a LOT of trouble hitting those times in a sssc. an sstc would be better off.

 

Not sure I use have a tune before and I dynoed at 250 to the wheel and I detuned it thinking I would get my warranty back cause I needed the dealer to work on the car but they wouldn't touch it even wheni took off the tune

 

ye i would love to have an ss/tc i have 15 months left on my lease tho , the srt-8s run 13.2 at best on street tires, still very fast. i was thinking to race from a roll, maybe a 40.

ye their **** about that, i've had my car for almost a year, my warranty ends in 1 month, so i figured ill have fun for the remaining 15months (lease take over, if you were wondering why those months dont add up)

 

Lol yea I went to different dealers they all turn me down I wanted my timing chain to get tightend so I've been driving ona loose chain hopefully it won't go wrong

 

i did have one race where i was left in the dust worse than with the srt-8. one of my friends has a 1991 r32 skyline gt-r with 500+ awhp. i would tell you how many cars he pulled, but i lost site of him on the highway, so its impossible to tell. we started at a 50 roll. his car weighs 3100 lbs no driver, mine weighs about 2950, so around the same weight but he has 2 1/2 times the whp, do the math lol

 

I want a skyline like a 2000 one doesn't even have to be gtr lol

 

ye a 2000 r34 would be nice, there's no conversion kit to mask it like the sylvia's have, (s13, s15) so tho cops would know its illegal right away. where i live it has to be a 15 yr old import. thats why my friend has a 91

i was just reading through your kills, and i saw the sti stock, what year is it, was it a close race?

 

im pretty sure there are some that ran high 12's on drag times, tho those are the best of the best times...soooh.

 

damn thats quick, i dont want to go over 2 grand in mods, i think ill have him from a roll by may tho

 

Not sure the year but shitty driver with a big mouth lol from a roll to 120 I beat him by 3 cars from a dig he couldn't launch wich I took full advantage off lol not sure how many lengths I beat him though lol

 

nice kill, i was curious about the year because there is a blue new generation sti in my area , i dont know the guy tho, we'll bump into each other eventually for a go, i see his car every day on the roads.

 

Lol coo if he sucks at driving you'll get him wixh is the only reason I took him not replace him with a good driver I would have lost lol

 

hey maybe ill win, when im done my mods, im still exploring options... ill be in the 270-310 whp range. i increased my budget to 2500$ in mods!

 

Damn I wish I had a budget that high lol my budget right now is 20 a week for gas lol

 

how is there a bad driver? all the dodge chargers/magnums/chrysler 300's are automatic.

 

I'm only stage 2 and i've taken a MS3(Stock) and a Chrystler 300 w/ 5.7(at least an Exhaust) Both from 40-50mph Rolls.... So it Doesn't Take much to pull those cars but the SRT-8 on the other hand. Good Luck.

 

we were talking about a new sti in my area

 

Stock SRT 8s run mid 13s, with minor bolt ons, they are in the 12s
