[quote name='dysthymia' date='Jun 16 2002, 02:49 AM']I've had my 89 GTU up to 132, and it scared the **** out of me. I couldn't get it any faster, though; sharpish turn coming up, I would have bit **** pretty quick. Oh well, now that I've gone that fast in this car, I won't have to do it again. Not until I mod it, which, by the look of my paycheck, isn't going to happen anytime soon.
Yeah, your car probably gets there in the time it takes me to get to 80 or so. N/As are sloooooow, but its certainly quick enough for me at the moment. |

I've had the car up to about 101...takes a bit of time to get there however https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...#>/biggrin.png
Still not sure if my 6ports are opening or not, tried the put the grease and see if it moves trick but the results are inconclusive. Perhaps I ought to wire em shut. You could probably do all sorts of fun things with an N/A and get a considerable amount of HP out of it but there's a certain point at which it would be cheaper to do a turbo swap. As for myself, I'd love to have both sitting around beefed up but that costs moooney. And as I are gainfully unemployed at the moment moooney is a bit tight. Meanwhile, I think I'll run a compression test blah blah and see where my car is at...it's not like I can do much to it to make it faster without blowing it to kingdom come. 185k miles ya know. |
