Depends on the turbo upgrade, could have been 15G, 16G, killer 17G turbo upgrades or some others. Still the car should be fast as hell. Even with just the 15G turbo upgrade, his car could see mid to low 12s.

Great job with the kills Polygon, i love when you give a solid repeat performance right after wiping the pavement with people!

Why are you keeping the old GTC around? I thought you'd have yanked all the good stuff off it and put it on the new one?
Thanks.

I need to see what is left off the old LeBaron. I bought what I thought I could use for the 1990 GTC, but now that I sold that and have another 1989 GTC I could use a lot more. I'm going to give them a call this weekend.

Exactly, should be. However, he will not take my advice and replace his stock injectors and get the damn thing tuned. I keep telling him it would make a lot more power if he would get that done.

Too bad I don't think he does. He seems to like his new Cobra a lot more and I would take his Stealth anyday over his Cobra. It is a hell of a lot more fun to drive.

BTW, here is a picture of the Cuda and the Stealth:

By the way, sweet pics! I look forward to when you've stripped what you can off the old one and put it on this new one! The mighty LeBaron shall ride again!

Re: Stealth RT/TT Vs. Camaro SS.

Yeah, I know you said you weren't sure about all of the Stealth's upgrades, but as youngvr4 said, with larger turbos, injectors and a fuel pump upgrade are necessary. As well, it is possible he could run more than 12 psi. With a boost controller, he should try 14.5psi, then maybe you could take the Cuda. Regardless, nice kill on the SS, and again, that would be sweet if you got that Stealth, I guarentee you'd love it.

Re: Stealth RT/TT Vs. Camaro SS.

Hey Polygon,
that Stealth looks great and all stock...but please, tell your friend to get rid of that dinky spoiler and it will look better! Other than that, very clean and fast sounding car

No, I don't think it is. Too bad we can't tell from his crap Autometer A/F gauge. It just seems to like to bounce back and forth. I think he would get a good wideband setup as well. He just doesn't want to listen to me.

Yes it shall, as soon as I get new tires, brakes, suspension, and perhaps a new exhaust it will ride again. I do need to fix the pesky overboost cut.

He does have a boost controller, but I believe that 12 is the most he can run on the stock injectors before going lean so he sticks it at 12 PSI. If he would just get wideband, bigger injectors, and get the thing tuned he could run more boost and make a hell of a lot more power to the wheels but my advice falls on deaf ears.

I actually like how that thing looks, but it might look better without one at all. I'm seriously thinking about buying it from him. I just need to talk him into holding onto it for me.
