STOCK SHOs surprise a lot of people

BTW, Whitey, what kind of tuning has gone into this setup? What engine management? Any dynographs?

I want to believe what you say is true, but like I said before... anyone can build a turbo SHO. Making it run without blowing it up is a different story.

WTF do you mean you want to believe its true? This is the setup and these are the numbers, what else do you want me to show? Obviously its tuned because its running 12's and we're at the street races in Philly every weekend. The only thing we're blowing apart is the driveline. Its also a 200,000 mile shortblock in the car now. This car has been running a turbo for 3 years so we're not amatures at this game. If you think I'm full of ---- we'll be more than happy to meet you in Philly or Maple Gove in a couple weeks and don't forget your ------- checkbook.

BTW if anybody can build a turbo SHO post pics of yours and don't forget the timeslip.

Very nice, a bit crude looking, but heck, its running.

Get your buddy to post on www.shoforum.com

Have you upgraded anything else on the car, or did you just slap on a turbo. Is the transmission beefed at all? and have you stripped your 3rd gear? Quaffe? If no LSD, how are you able to run 12 s, seems you would light a tire easily.

We have a turbo SHO owner on our forum who has put over 10k into the car in extraneous mods (brakes shocks tranny etc).

Do you have HP numbers off the thing? 500whp maybe? And you said no bottom-end work on the 200k motor. Watch out for the rod-bearings.

Well... looks good regardless, come out to the SHO-club annual convention, www.shoclub.com .

:thumbs up:

It has a quaife and yeah we blew out 3rd last weekend racing a Supra. Its got alot of ---- done to it, brakes rotors, camber and caster plates, SS lines, full coilover suspension. We have 3 blocks for it this one is temporary while we're trying to get pistons for the other. Over the 3 years of boost we melted about 8 pistons but that was mainly cause of just ------- around with the 120 shot of nitrous on top of the boost. Since it only takes 4 hours to rebuild it we really didn't care.


It seems like Wiseco is the only company that makes pistons for this car. Do you know of anybody else and a price?
