Well you know what I mean
The car weighs over 3000 without me in the car thats a fact
- you said you ran the 16 second run at the bash on 3 cylinders......
yes and rather impressive seeing as how I also had a full stereo load in the car that weighs more than 250lber
-you also said you could take off the supercharger belt and run 14;s and i can quote that.
weighing as much as a stock LS sport I have no doubt
That 15.7 with an intake and TB was 2 years ago theres been a ton of things done since
Bottom line, the car is built for stereo competition not for racing, and despite that its still faster than most ppl on here, performance has never been my focus alot of the reason I got the charger was to get the car back to stock speed, because it was so heavy from the stereo stuff it wasnt as much fun to drive. I'll never be as fast as I could be cause I will never give up the stereo stuff

Got the clutch and flywheel, got the MSD working, got the big brake kit, got the supercharger. Only thing I failed to accomplish was finishing the fuel system for the supercharger and getting some drag radials. No big deal just means I won't be racing. That will probably disappoint some others more than it will me. I know racing the car would not be a good call.

There is one hope that might work though. I could pull the o2 sensor and that might richen me up like I was before I fixed it, I could also run the msd or the stock ignition if I was a little richer. Traction would still be a problem but maybe with a softer launch I might still be able to crack a low 15. I still have a personal best of 15.7 to break. I must admit I'd be disappointed in nothing less than 14s but with what I have to work with I dont think its attainable right now

I ran 15.7 almost 2 years ago with just an intake and throttle body. I know the car is much faster now. People must seriously be insane to think that my car will run consistant 16s. I'd smash any car running 15s or 16s with little effort.

You wanna see a N/A 2.2 thats bored, custom cam, 14.7:1 and 348 HP on methanol?
Its dry sumped, Hilborn injected and every bit as cool as it looks..
No, its not falling out. Thats leaned over for weight transfer...
Amazingly the stock mount bosses still exist. Its almost a bolt in for a street car.
And yes.. that is at Jacksonville..

RoboGeek, is that 2.2 using the stock crank and main caps? Do you know which cly head he is using, the 94-97 or the 98-02 head? That is pretty f*cking impressive for a all motor 2.2 ohv!!!!!!!! Gotta love the methanol

Are you saying that Joe Alemida's car put down over 300hp on motor? If so, you are wrong. He didnt put down anywhere near 300hp on motor. I think he put down numbers in the mid 200's on nitrous tho.
