BUT this means...that u'd have no problems, with the MODS U'VE LISTED beating a stock vette or camaro 0-60. im sorry, but that is jus tough to believe...simply cuz u'd have to hit a damned wall after 60mph to run only a 14.5-15.0

What? That makes no sense. The reason you see times like that are because of traction problems most of the time. You quite frankly just DO NOT HAVE THE POWER to run a 4.6 0-60. I could see MAYBE if you were running a 7.51:1 gear ratio(YEA RIGHT, impossible) AND you had metal wheels running on a magnetic track then MAYBE you could pull a 4.6 0-60

That's exactly what I'm saying man. You'd basically have to come to a complete stop and then start again to get numbers like that

C-mon man just think about it!! Gearing/top end power can cause alot of headache with my car. Why do you think i chose a Turbo!! This all should be common knowledge if you paid any attention to drag races. Why does one guy have a horrid trap speed but end up kicking ass in the 1/4 mile!

[CougarSVT]

Do you have any clue what a stock Cougar run(0-60)???? obviously not!!




Besides Self, you were spitting some kind of calculations that ended up not making any since yesterday when i brought up different cars that weight about the same and have about the same HP's (Type-R). What are you just wanting to argue or just saying you will agree to disagree?

have you ever thought about the customcougars turbo? Looks like a nice setup. True on the pricy side but they got like 270 hp i belive at around 7 psi when their stock cluch gave up.

Bwahahahahah!!!!!!!!!!! He had catystrofic events happen to his internals!!! Horrable things went wrong w/ his setup....real bad. Blew a piston apart!! Nice looking car though, wide body kit and all!



Sorry man im naynay on Neco!! Im involved with "itsturbo.net".

I might be wrong but all those guys run together customcougars & projectcougar on Neco.

Are you the one that setup your email account? If not they may have done something wrong with "reply mail", it could be going somewhere else. But not sure, its pretty rough over there man, alot of motor Gods!

What is the stock 0-60? I read somewhere around 7 seconds...
You have 20 more hp than stock and STOCK gears yet you claim to run a 4.6 0-60(BETTER than a CORVETTE). You have YET TO EXPLAIN how that is possible...I'm sorry, but I'm not going for it until you lay down some solid facts about how it is you accomplished it. Do you not realize how fast a 4.6 0-60 is?? How did you do it with 20hp and stock gearing?

If you're not sure how fast that is, here are some comparisons of other cars' 0-60 times.

Ferrari 360 Modena = 4.5s
Ferrari 550 Maranello = 4.2s
Camaro Z28(LS1) = 5.7s
Corvette Z06 = 4.7s
Aston Martin V12 Vanquish = 4.6s

I can give more if neccessary? How is it you keep up with these supercars with 200whp and stock gearing?

[EJ20]

CougarSVT, I am sorry , but you are full of shit.
you don't have that kind of power/weight/gear ratio to beat a corvette 0-60.
with 200whp. FWD, and 2941lb (assume it is a v6)
you do the math.

WORDDDD.... finally someone said it.


Stock ITR's run high 14's in the 1/4, and around a 6.5 0-60..... There you go.. FWD, 190 horse car. Pretty close to your car(closer than a Camaro at least). So please explain how you can possibly run a "4.6" or whatever. And actually break it down technically and explain and dont just give me an irrelevant fact and tell me to think about it. I've tried to be pretty nice about it so far.. so either explain in great detail how you can run a 4.6 or fess up to the truth.

And how do you know you even ran a 4.6? Go to a drag strip??? Let's see the slip.

Self is right you have yet to explain yourself clearly, and the stock 0-60 times are around 7.5 to 8 sec but closer to 8 and with 14.5-15.0 sec 1/4 you're not going to get 4.6 0-60 unless you have more power in conjunction with a set of lower gears.

[94svt5.0]

Basiaclly the 4.6 0-60 time is the result of the use of a stopwatch while attempting to drive and watch the speedo right? Extremely inaccurate, too easy to hit the start button abit after your rolling eh?
