Latest wins:


-SRT-4 with a Hahn Race Craft 20G turbine upgarde running @ 14 PSI of boost
-STI
-Modded WRX
-Automatic 2006 Mustang GT w/Pro Charger running @ 9 PSI (400+whp est.)
-Dezod T.E.A turbine Scion tC @ 10 PSI (friend of mine)
-Custom 57 Trim turbine Scion tC @ 9 PSI (friend of mine)
-Camaro SS on a 100shot of spray (said he had low bottle pressure)
-Mustang GT (unknown mods), but it wasn't even a race as it seemed stock

That's it for the latest stuff. Have old stuff too, like SR20/RB20 240sx's, Evo's, and a handful of other cars that shouldn't be racing against turboed cars.


did you race the s/c mustang again? because last I read you were just speeding behind him "matching speed for speed".




There was no need for me to race him after Preston (Dezod turbo tC), raced an SRT-4 and murdered him. That same SRT-4 beat the Pro Charge Stang. I can beat Preston, so....sort of an indirect way, I'm faster than the Stang....hehee.


saw the vids.. good stuff.. even with your blown seals! haha



Yeah....I guess I can literally say....."You got Smoked"...lol. I took the turbo off the other day, plan on having the seals done, and getting some thermal coating on the turbine housing while I'm at it. I bought the new fittings to redo my return line, so hopefully everything works out with that.

Ok, so I was on my way to a gas run with my buddy after work. He just recently bought a EG Civic Hatch w/ a B18C1 swapped into it. Pretty quick little car let me tell you. Anyway, we are on the highway, pretty desolate section, and we come up to a slight curve and he honked 3 times outta nowhere. lol. We started from about a 45mph roll and he got the jump, cuz I'm auto, but by the time I hit 70-75 I passed him. A win is a win, but I wonder if he missed a shift, cuz I don't think I should have beat him.

Wasn't a race, but I guess I pissed off a subie driver today. I was in a hurry to pick up my wheel key that I left at the shop tonight. And while merging on I-70 I jumped into traffic very quickly. I guess it looked like I was trying to show off to the guy in front of me. As I blow by him I see all his guages, decals, and turbo accessories. SO, of course he couldn't go unnoticed and speeds up real fast (easy for him) and flys up to me and lets blow off valve scream and takes off going like 100mph. I just needed to get to the shop before it closed haha

I highly doubt he'd let me win, cuz he was actually excited that he had a car that could keep up. I think he just sucks at driving, cuz I def did not think I could beat him.

I love the races we are in that we don't even know we are part of . I apparently get into them a lot and have cars do flybys on an open highway and then merge off onto an offramp. Some of them I wish would slow up and let me race them but others (Vettes and Trucks mainly) just blow by to show their speed.



Complaining is futile when you supported the victory.

It's called "ricer flyby"

well i did a couple runs at a car meet the other day.. first run was a 3 car run me vs a srt-4 with intake vs an srt-4 with mopar stage 2, intake, exhaust etc. we did a 40 roll and i didnt even brake boost. 3rd honk went i pulled first somehow even tho it wasnt even spooled then at about 55 mph the mopar srt passed me and took about 2 cars and the other srt-4 was like 4 cars behind us he was really slow lol

then i raced a stock speed3 and destroyed him on a 35 roll.
fastest car at the meet was a turbocharged mustang GT pushing over 500 whp.. that thing beat everything lol

Stock SRT-4 you should be able to beat. They run 13.8-14.2 at the track.

Auto tC @ 6psi won't beat a Mopar Stage 2. Mopar Stage 2 = 275 WHP and of coures, neons are a lot lighter than tCs

Did not realize he was auto and only on 6 PSI. As for the "lot lighter" part, you are incorrect. SRT-4's weigh nearly identical to that of a tC.

215 is what dodge SAID it was. But Dodge underrated the HP quite a bit. The SRT's are the same as us when it comes to HP/TQ relationship. When you boost the tC, we produce more tq than hp, same as the SRT. You put down 240whp in a tC, then you can expect 250-260wtq. I'm talking about a manual of course though.

The caliber is a joke though. I have YET to see one driven anywhere...lol.
