Sweet vid
 
I street tuned this guy a week or two ago, dude is ------- funny. If you notice his hatch is gutted to nothing, weighs under 2000 lbs with a half tank and him in it, I'd guess it makes 260-ish whp.

Most of the V8 cars in the vid were bullshitting. The 400 whp 499 wtq F-body makes nothing of the sort, it gets pulled harder than the 300 whp Evo that weighs the same.

Depends on the ride. Street tunes are $200+ depending on the budget/setup, but I give excellent tech support after the tune, go to the dyno at a later date for no extra money, and I ask to see the car in a half year when weather/temps change so I can trim IAT corrections across the seasons. I really can't see treating a car any other way than a work in progress, it ends up not being as lucritive as it sounds sometimes. LOL.

That guy might rip on his car as hard as Spiker does, hahaha


Oh, and ---- rips for what it is.

I think Spiker is harder with how he treats his transmission.

I can't believe that guy on the bike was street racing in a tshirt and shorts... whats a helmet going to do if there is no skin left on your body?
and yes I do ride.

sweet build on the car though :D

If it crash at 120+ I probably wouldnt want to live with the consequenses... if your on a track with runoff and ish then it makes sense.. but a highway with telephone poles/traffic/etc... ---- that.

LOL, I was thinkn the same thing

It doesn't spin in 2nd, either. I forget the tire but it's not a drag radial. I repeat it only makes a butt dyno of ~260, so the tire isn't overpowered, but with how little the car weighs it scoots. Feels more like a really stout NA car, high dollar 2.1 liter stroker type deal.

My car with 280 would smoke through 3rd gear on 215/50/13's lol.

Anyway, that car looks like a lot of fun.
