That's not how it works haha. First to make any good power you have to dump a shitload of cash and when u do ask guy show often they rebuild them. I know a guy who has a 20b at a local track and its rebuilt around every 10 passes.

and rice they sound amazing but that's about all they are good for haha. Way too unreliable.

you lost to a honda? Man card revoked.

Stay lnf and get a solstice.

Dont worry op taking a loss to a well built car is not shameful hell I once got my ass handed to me by some gutted na hatch

alerosaint

a gutted turbo hatch used to work me over on the track years ago too lol

I love the guys that still don't understand how torque, horsepower and weight work. But it don't have no torque bro!

cluelessk

^ I'm a fan of not having to rev like crazy to make power. Especially on the street. Needing to rev over 6 just looks obnoxious.

Ya they're fun but u enjoy driving cars with torque curves like ours.

OzzyruleZ

I rev my 300ZX to 7K on the street. The cams I chose shifted the powerband from 2K - 5500 to 3500 - 7K. Looks obnoxious until you get walked I guess.

my brother had an FD rx7 that was single turbo pushing 600+ easily. he never had to rebuild anything.

OzzyruleZ

Shhhh don't tell these guys. If its not Eco or LSX its junk.

cluelessk

Not what I meant. Honda only start making any real power at like 6 grand and up. For bombing around you need to keep the engine strung out.

That's fine if you're on a track or doing highway pulls but any other time you have to be too high in a gear and you'll probably be speeding instead of the nice low rpm where our torque comes in.

OzzyruleZ

my car is gutless until 3K. A LNF would destroy me down low. Actually happened at the track, my friends Solstice, he would kill me on the launch, also helps my car either bogs or boils, however I would freight train him up top badly. I have no problems bombing around in it either. You think you need 400+ft/lbs to drive normally around town? Give me a break.

cluelessk

Why are you always so aggressive?

I'm just saying why I prefer the Cobalt. I actually have a thought out reason and not one of the guys saying "DEM HONDAS ARE DUM!!!!"

I even notice is from a SC to a TC. You're not ever waiting because of boost threshold with the SC it's fun to just boot around with.

i want to drive a TVS lsj to compare it to my zfr LNF. I've never driven an SC car.

lnfs really don't have much lag from my experience

i really will never understand people's hatred for all cars that aren't theirs. it's bullshit. all cars have pro's and con's its up to the owner of that car to decide which pros and con's he wants to deal with

OzzyruleZ

Yours is the same song and dance as the others. "No torque, have to rev them to much, blah blah blah" It's more a to each their own kind of thing. Those torqueless engines have more than proved themselves so people talking bad about them is annoying. The Ecotec is nothing special by any means.

OzzyruleZ

Pretty much.

People talk smack about things they are afraid of and we fear the things we don't understand

i guess so

but seriously, people will buy a camaro and claim the mustangs are total ******* junk - well, i got news for ya, that mustang is a direct competitor for your camaro, so what does that make the camaro?

OzzyruleZ

Overweight total ******* junk?

Lag and threshold are two different things. Lag is once your car is already out of vacuum till it hits full boost. Threshold is from in vacuum too building boost.

It's noticeable in almost all turbo cars.

c0de7477

i notice it with my zfr. it's not terrible but it's there.

A stock s2k can make double the power of a stock Lnf car with a turbo. That's why.

LNFTX

Dont get me wrong I really like the s2k but double thats a little exaggerated you can tgrow a big turbo at an essentially stock lnf and make around 550 with a good power band and tourque curve

Edit:not to say thats a real good idea
