They should be careful, the gov't wants to outlaw any parody of TSA.

 

On cl today.

 

 

More info and stuff here

 

LOL turbo lag and waste gates dumping under the hood....

 

That dyno almost looks like it was drawn up as a joke But seriously, that has got to make your ***** hurt when it transitions into boost.

EDIT: No under hood dumping, apparently. Click the link for more piktars and inforz

 

nO u

 

EDIT:Obviously this isn't a autocross car, lol. That powerband is perfect for drag racing.

 

lolz for 130hp and tq at 5200 rpm.

 

"Car is on E85 making about 826whp and 525ftlbs"

I'm equally fond of the random douche laugh at 1:13

 

his launch sucked *****. it'd be fast if it had a wider powerband.

 

It's obviously a highway racer, the only thing that takes less skill then drag racing is drag racing from a roll, or drag racing a evo/gt-r.

 

The (likley) all motor (more likely sprayed otherwise N/A small block) S10 pickup made his 1000hp car look slow as ****.. lol Not the worst launch ever, but he sure won't win brackets like that...

 

Drag racing > track racing. Turbo > vaginacharger

Jeez people, getting all hateful in here with out reading the link. That was the second outing at the strip. He was much faster than the truck, the slip is in the link. That tree is setup to not start until the beam is tripped, so you can sleep all you want.

That run in the vid was a high 9 @140+ with a 1.56 60' that's not bad at all. But now it's in the 8's or low 9's or something stupid - Inforz in teh linkz

I still cant get over the fact that our motors with the same amount of work only make 1/2 the power.

 

That would be your opinion. Just like Pepsi > Coke is my opinion.

I didn't click link, just watched video and saw the truck cross the line first. In my book that's how you win a drag race... But drag racing is gay, so who cares.

I'm really not bagging on the car that badly. Still think the power band is pretty ******* terrible, but that's what happens when you crank 8 or 900hp from a 120 cubic inch engine. What really surprises me (after clicking on link) is the ******* thing hasn't come flying apart yet. Maybe if mazda designed our cylinder heads with gaping anus ports like Honda has they'd make more power?

 

Apparently that is the norm for those guys. Our "safe" limit on a stock bottom end is 220-250wtrq, were theirs is something absurd like 500+whp and they can do that for years with no worries. There are tons of those people running over 700whp on bone stock motors and they never worry either.

I love miatas to death, but come on....our motors are just lacking in the power making department. 500+hp is not impossible by any means from a B6,BP but we can't do it anywhere near as easy or efficiently.

EDIT: Also their drivetrains are nuts. The dude blows a tranny and is like, "oh well, I guess this is too be expected at 1000hp, haha," I know there are a few K swaps going on now, but it won't surprise me if they start becoming more and more popular.

 

if you read the thread a little bit, he blew up 4th gear during the first run. the rear end is some aftermarket unit and the bottom end is forged.
