Ya Fiero pulled me. I think we went from like 60-65 to like 120-130.

I ran another turbo Fiero that was a manual and that run was a lot closer, but we didn't get a good video of it.

Damn camera car couldn't keep up

You need a go pro. Suction it to the side window and go.

If you're talking about Scott (the guy in the video running me) he has had a LOT done since you left.

It's a decent size turbo. Takes him a good second and a half to build full boost, as you can see in the video. And this is his low boost tune

There are many engine swaps out for the Fiero, I have seen one with a 350 V8 in it.

Northstar V8 swaps use to be popular also, but my favorite that I would like to do some day would be a 3.8 supercharged swap.

Wife has the cuffs on me with anything 2 seater till the kid gets out of highschool.

The manual Fiero I ran used to be a supercharged 3.8 back when I had my Balt. We were dead even 40-140.

Sweet baby jeebus... I'm glad the fiero isn't close to stock or it might have caught on fire lol... both cars sound badass, both out of my league for sure. Are you on E yet Shibito?
