Re: Who says you cant make real power with a Log Mani
i dont mean to talk ----, but 4cyl's have certainly gone a lot faster than 150mph. be careful about what you claim to be a street car, as i'm fairly certain john shepard is running more like 7.70-7.80 and a lot closer to 200mph than 150mph. i personally wouldn't consider john shepards car a street car, but if thats the comparison you're triying to make, your're comparing your car to back-halfed methanol burning FWD hotrod cars running in the high 7's. surely not a good comparison to your car.
i appreciate your car for what it is, but know that other people/forums are going to give you a monumental load of ---- about your claims.
have fun, go faster
EDIT: oops, not your car, but THAT car...........i'm drunk, so thats a freebie

His car has not been street legal for quite some time now. Tags on the plates are 05, it has a filled block, no alternator, no exhaust. When that car was "legal" he wasn't running 7's. Hubers SVO is titled, registered, insured, full exhaust and can be daily driven 
:P

Still a badass car with a super nice owner. The thing is quality through and through.

Badass car nonetheless, not trying to downplay it. If this was around back when the engine originally came out, people would ---- their pants and hang the owner for witchcraft and communism.

Re: Who says you cant make real power with a Log Mani
I made 404 whp on a log mani/1.8 liter LS/VTEC combo, given the "big plenum" design in the picture I'm not surprised the car makes good power.
Nothing impressive about that car, IMO. I doubt it has much more than 600 whp in a 2500lb chassis to run a flat 9. The reason you don't see more four cyl Mustangs doing that is because ****** ------- rednecks yank the 2.3's to swap in 302's thinking that they are upgrading something.
