They cut immediately to the same traffic shot after both runs. Notice 18 wheeler in far right lane and identical traffic patterns around it, which makes no sense to do when editing the video. It was hard to gauge anything about vehicle velocity when they spotlight the GPS and then immediately cut footage - I know at that speed I'd be pointing the camera around because 150+ is pretty dramatic.

I just don't trust a 75mm bore engine for high load long duration operation. It's probably entirely do-able with c16 or any other good racegas, and I'm just being a hater, but it's pulls like that which unseat headgaskets on more robust B-series.

Yeah, but as soon as you let off the gas with those 900 lb springs the ride goes from smooth as glass to OMFG I'M GOING TO DIE. It's not getting there that's the problem.

Re: Chinese made turbo kit

i will say in my crx at 130 i thought for sure i was gonna die, but in my 97 coupe at 140+ its smooth as butter. heavier cars are always more stable at speed.

Re: Chinese made turbo kit

went about 125-130 in old integra, was smooth until i let off then it was death ride back and forth between lanes

don't know how fast in mustang, speedo stopped a 85... lol... smooth going up and down,
might have been 150 was nearing redline in OD

went about 135 in camaro smooth as glass all the time, could've climbed out the top and skated on spoiler

about 100 in my old chevelle and it felt like i was going to crash, needed new front suspension :P

Re: Chinese made turbo kit

thats the real deal folks

Re: Chinese made turbo kit

took my 300zx to 160 before. Just flooring it in 5th. Doing 160 is amazing, makes all traffic seem stopped. Attachment 22786 I was braking when the picture was taken. When i brake that light comes on in the upper left hand corner of the dash.
