Well on the way home from the g/f tonight. I had just filled up with 93. As I am leaving I hear a car going by at a good 3/4 to full throttle. So I go find out what it was. It was a mod'ed probe. not to badly riced but not a full out race car either. So we past a few lights, mind you this is the main drag going through town (6 lanes). I give him a little bit of my air box mod, and he down shifts, we are around 60mph and he goes. I am in fourth and drop to third and give it about 3/4 throttle. and I start pulling I get all the way into it and pull to the end of third and have maybe 2-3 cars. We line up again roughly 50-55mph and he jumps. I smash third and nail fourth. I let off at around 110ish and i have a good 5-6 cars easy and was pulling. Then we finally catch a light but he pulls in the turn lane and gives the nod, and i give a smile and nod back.

 

watch out for the probe gts

2.2l turbod stock. they kinda quick stock and even more quicker with mods. my boys stock ss/sc got pulled by my girls brothers probe haha

 

What years where the turbo ones? Maybe like... early 90's? I've only seen the V6 ones or n/a four bangers. Come to think of it... I haven't seen a probe in a very long time.

 

Turbo 2.2 with 145 Crank HP.
They are good for high 15's stock so I wouldn't call them quick..

 

intake and MBC= kinda quick.. lol

 

Ehh they run high 15's... IMO the 13 sec range is what I consider quick.I'm pretty sure it will take a little more than a boost controller to drop ~ 2 secons off.

 

they can hit pretty damn good numbers with just the MBC... they have fairly large t3 turbos stock and the engine can handle a beating

 

to me a quick ar is 12s or under... but just by leanin that thing out by boostin a couple pounds more.... and being able to hold the boost in one place that car will *** alive.. ( for a early 90s car lol) id give it high 13s wit CAI, MBC ,and TBE... toss in a set of slicks and a tuner of sum sort and low 13s/high 12s

 

With 145 crank how much WHP will a boost controller put one at?...

 

I don't know much about them so I'm looking at drag times to get an idea.Here are two there really wasn't alot..

89 Probe GT 13.4 @ 113
T3 upgrade,17 psi, 50 shot, 3 inch exhaust.MSD ignition, Shifter

89 Probe GT 14.6 @ 94
Boost controller, Catback, Filter

 

yeah it wasn't a turbo that is for sure, but i know there is one or two around here that are fast.

 

i had a 91 probe 2.2l quick car. was really light. i actually wish i still had that car. the tranny basically exploded. second gear fell out and destroyed the rest of the trans.

 

Yeah I think late 80's t early 90's I beleive thw mustang SVO and the Probe GTS shared the same enging and turbo setup also the Mazda 626 and the probe share the same drive train at least the v6's do not shure about the 4cyl

 

quick enough to beat a "so quick ss/sc" hahah

 

LMAO don't see that hapening.
I don't see it dropping below a mid 14 with a BC.Thats being genorus taking a full sec and 1/2 off the ET........

 

haha, aight

 

i had a 1983 nissan turbo that would get 14.5 stock. we cranked up the boost and got that. my son put on a 50 shot and got the clutch.

 

an 83? wow, u talking about a 300zx?
