unfortunately he wouldnt be behind him in his personal car either. im positive the red devil(darth maul) would be following blue in a not so close fashion. cue jonathan to post a vid he pulls out everytime i think about going turbo. never underestimate the powers of the jedi.

That timing table was more just hard on a motor than it was making it faster haha.

And my car wasn't done being tuned yet when we raced either

Went 3/3 on 3rd gear pulls from 80.

And I was door to door with another 2.4 who has pulled stock LSJ's.

3rd gear from 80? Terrible start for an LSJ. It would be lugging hard.

I just don't see it. A stock LSJ makes over 200whp stock.

as in jedi i mean tvs, and dont tell me he wont be doing the same after infra tunes him.

as if dk, there is now way a tuned 2.4 with a air intake can take a stock lsj. my orange car was basically stock and i was running 15.3 @ racecity. iirc steve(who had more mods and better tune) was running at his best 15.9 @race city. tell me how you beat a lsj? was the driver a 16 yrs female?

I know the numbers don't work, but it's what happened. And like I said, the other 2.4 has done the same.

Driver mod lol.

Although his pontiac is a little quick. I know I pulled on him when we raced shortly after his tune but it put up a little bit of a fight.

He might be close to 180 I bet now

steve was not too amazing in the launch department if i remember correctly........id believe a modded 2.4L could hold a stock lsj, id say drivers race at that point. Cmon guys fwd within 20-30hp of each other any number of losses from bad shifts or worn out clutches, rly dirty air filter, clogged cat....ect ect ect, would allow the 2.4L to win

im not saying i dont believe you, however there must be something drastically wrong with the lsj. at least you had a feel good moment.

to further back up those numbers his brother 2.4 ran a similar time, even beat him by .1 or .2 seconds.

i do realize the best thing a 2.4 wants is a cai and tune, it gives it about 20 hp. but thats still a few hp away from the factory 205hp of the lsj(which was underrated by factory)

If he started in 3rd doing an 80k roll on I don't doubt that. Like I said the car would lug hard when you floor it. Way taller gearing in the F35 trans than what you have.

i found out this evening that the trifecta tune DOES remove the speed limiter, it was nice to finally max out that speedometer.

I was sitting here going "Are you hopped up on that crinack son? 80 MPH is the perfect spot in 3rd for an LSJ!" Then I remembered you silly canadians go by KPH! So yeah 80K in 3rd is just terrrible lol, even though I cant imagine the 2.4 was at the best rpm at that speed either.
