Your better off with Traction bars; Bwoody makes a decent set. I'll have my CA 1" Traction bars on by thursday. They work a lot better than a bandaide torque dampener fyi.

Nah wasn't being sarcastic; I was congratulating you on a good all out effort race. Win, lose, you gave that Corvette a run.

 

we can do that next weekend if u want but it has to be on a sunday!

 

i bought the car 6 days after my 19th b day, best buy pays the bills good

 

do it for me hahaha
damn im off saturday!!!

u gotta be 18 to work at the best buy here...ill look into it

 

Im surprised to say the least.

A. Get rid of the fatass
B. He has more than just mufflers
C.Really... This makes no sense, I have less mods than you and I held an 07 STI to 125+ Like within half a car front bumper to front bumper.

You mean to tell me that thing is faster than an 07 STI?

 

yeah its everywhere that way, they pay good for what i do though i started at 18 and two years later im making $5 more a hour

 

[QUOTE=CobaltVenomSS;1911071]do it for me hahaha


damn im off saturday!!!


get the stuff and help u!

 

what do u do there?

 

cool im making 3 over 20 lol

 

i used to work loss prevention, and worked my way up to full time , know i work in the warehouse as a inventory senior, and they pay me $14 a hour, in a year i should be a SUpervisor and make $20 plus bonuses

 

thats nice in two more years ill be @ 35

 

must be nice man, i only wish i could make that kind of money, with bonuses in a year you can do 45k which should be more than rnough for me and my girl if not a mgr spot is always in my head

 

I'll sell you my Ingall's Torque Dampner.

BTW, Race that Vette again... don't tell him something was wrong with your car... just tell him you wanna try it again... and get a LIGHT cameraman!!!

 

Something doesn't seem right with the Corvette. They were rated at 205 hp. With your mods you should have been able to edge him out. Aren't they a little heavier than the 'balt too? More drivetrain loss by comparison due to rwd. There has to be something more than exhaust done to it.

Here's my information source: http://www.web-cars.com/corvette/1985.php (...and I dare you to click on 2009especially parts 5-7).

 

fatass costed you .25 in time... you would of pulled without chubs

 

From your own source...


To the OP... YOU WANNA BUY MY INGALL'S TORQUE DAMPNER?

 

is that timing chain recall only on 2005's or is that on all years of the LSJ?

 

for all lsj engines is in a tsb

 

Your point being??? LSJ is around that at the flywheel too. FWD bhp to whp > RWD bhp to whp.

 

My point is that he said he didn't understand it because the Vette had 205hp that year... when in fact it didn't. I'm just showing him that he needed to read his own source a little bit better.

And I know all too well about beating that model Vette, I've done it in my SS, he got a half second head start and I still beat him (Bracket Racing at the track). We've already established that the OP had a Clogged Cat (supposedly)... and that will seriously KILL HP.

 

It did have 205hp that year. Why else would it say "now 230?" It was rated at 205hp back in 1984.

"He" is me. I read the source clearly. I saw exactly what it said. Why would it say 205hp, now 230hp? Does the new SAE guidelines have anything to do with the measurement? Regardless, it still produces the same amount of power it did back then even if the guidelines for measurement changed.

BTW, I don't know anything about bracket racing.


I know enough about how clogged cats will hurt hp. I've suffered through it in a 3rd gen F-body and a Pontiac Fiero GT. However, there is yet to determine the actual cause of the problem that created the loss to the vette. After all, you did state "(supposedly)." If you are going to knit-pick about what I post, then realize you are subjecting yourself to the same. Find out if the cat was actually clogged. Don't just suppose.



On a side note: This is def the way a conversation should go between 2 Marines. You and I should now both realize that neither is going to give on this one until one has proven the other wrong beyond a reasonable doubt. So, I'm not going to argue over this anymore. It'll get nowhere.

 

Well said Marine!

Way to be a man and admit it!

 

Its 5am... I've had too many white Russians... and I am the confused.
