i'd most likely get spanked... right?

[DeleriousZ]

seen this wanker driving around in a hyudai(sp?) tiburon... not one of the new models.. maybe late 90's.. anyway, i really want to show this guy up.. but i'd most likely lose horribly... am i right? i've never really heard how fast tiburon's are.

[civicHBsi91]

90's probably not, one of the newer v6's yes you would loose

[DeleriousZ]

yeah, i know a guy that has a new v6... some special model.. starts with a T.. i can't remember.. but that thing's pretty quick... maybe i'll have to try and race the guy fer shits an giggles

[civicHBsi91]

if its the tiburon with the horrible looks then you could probably beat it out if you can drive

A guy I work with has a 97 tibby and gives people crap about thier cars. But he doesn't want to mess with my 90 Teg LS. He knows I like to tune my cars.
If it's the 97 tibby base coupe it has about 130 HP. All other models have around 140 HP except 2004 that has 138HP, the 2003-2004 V6's have between 170HP to 172 HP. Hope this info is useful to you

[DeleriousZ]

oh, very useful indeed.. i'd say we're around the same hp then.. i dunno how heavy those cars are tho.. maybe i'm a little lighter than him... i'll have to go cruisin by the high school around time they get out.. see if he wants to race

[pizzaman]

Wieght ranges from 3015lbs to 2597lbs.

[DeleriousZ]

oh yeah... that's quite the weight range! that's almost as light as me with prolly a little more hp (my engine's pretty old and it's got around 150 K on it... needs to be seafoamed)

[soccmid]

seafoam is just basically an engine cleaner... breaks up all the carbon deposits in your combustion chamber and a few other things.. just basically adds a few years to the engine's life and makes it run like it was built a few years ago.

thx fer the good luck..

on a side note... will an aem short ram add anything? like 3 or 4 hp? just won one offa ebay for $68 us w00t w00t

[MexSiR]

Yes it will add at least 3-4 horsepower at the wheels. 5-6 crank horsepower. It also depends on the weather conditions, but its better for it to give you 3 horsepower throughout the whole power band than only 7 hp at 6000 lets say. So yeah, it adds around 3-5 h.p through the power band.

[PunkAlex]

can you feel anythign with the buttdyno when you add 3-5 hp??

[209 neon]

just race and find out

[pikkagtr]

not really, just a warm gooey feeling dat's all.......
