Redline smokes RSX.

[3000ways]

Interesting, I want to know what mods are on the Redline to be making 289fwhp, that is awefully high for that car. I know stage 2 and a couple of other bolt ons is good for 240fwhp to even as high as 260fwhp, but 289fwhp is one of the highest I've ever seen or read. I say this cuz my co-worker has a Cobalt SS w/ stage 2 and a some other mods and he can only manage around 240whp. Still a quick little car.

No doubts on the RSX kill, the Redline and Cobalt SS are capable of high 13s w/ stage 2 and bolt ons, w/ slicks or DRs mid 13s and low 13s are possible w/ some kick ass driving. Trap speeds usually range around 103-107mph.

How's he being cocky. His wife was the one racing the car. Also, putting buslengths on RSX's is pretty easy. I'm sure I could put multiple buslengths on one.

If he wants to be cocky all he has to do is step in his 360whp GTO, which i'm sure would run 12's on drag radials. That's good enough to smoke 9 out of 10 cars that you encounter on the road.

Honestly i didnt quiz him but I really doubt hes lying, he is fast and he didnt stage it. Although i hear the GM Stage 3 nets you somewhere around 290 hp.

I just meant the Ring is a more complex course for suspension tunning.
ahhh, you knew what i meant, you just wanted to school me!

Chucks man, I dont know if I can hit the 12's, 13 flat maybe but Id have to get a perfect launch.
I know theres always gonna be a faster car out there though, sorry if the cliff notes came along as "cocky" i was going for hummorous rather then cocky but I never was good at written expression.

Bah, throw some drag radials on, heat them up, launch at 3500rpms, and you should run 12's. Some dude I knew from the mach1registry had 350whp, and he ran a 13.0 sec. 1/4 mile on drag radials, at a horrible track.

Your car's got some power man, don't fool yourself.

Good kill for your wife, though. I expected as much. Even if it was a Type S, I've been able to run with them and take them in the past a few times, so I fully expect that you would indeed win.

That's probably a bad driver then if your car beat them, you have a low 15 second car, Type S's are capable of 14's. We ran my friend's rsx at the 1/8 mile track and got a 9.5 at 78mph, which is about a 14.8ish 1/4. The Redline tho is def faster.

[Musashi3000GT]

Dont rob any cred. from Cassies man.
Just cause one RSX-S hit that dossent mean they all do.
Ive seen stock SRT-4s hit 14.0 flat and Ive seen them hit 15.1 at the same track. Different batches, different PCMs, different drivers. look at my GTO, it had one of the worst stock PCM settings. I ran 321 to the wheels when other stock GTOs on the same dyno where running 329-331. thank God for HPTunners!

I'm not robbing any credit from Cassies, I think its more of an accomplishment to beat the driver then the car. From what i've seen, those acura's are pretty consistent in the high 14's, which is pretty close to what Cassie can do.

[BullDog71ss]

Oh yes, this is nice. When Bulldog goes ranting and raving about how nice the Delta platform lsj equiped cars are everyone calls him an idiot. When Mushman does it, they're now praised as if they've been handed down to us by the hand of God.

I see how it is...you fuckers. :P

And they really do handle as well as he says. Oh yeah, give it about 8,000 miles Mushy, then the wheel-hop kicks in...stg 9 wheel-hop FTL.

But Willow Springs isn't in GT4. Leguna Seca and Infineon Raceway are... but no Willow Springs.

JOO ON CRAX AGAIN!

Gosh Mush, your car was a turd. Danno's dynoed at 338whp as I recall. Your car must've been made on a Monday.

[Chiquae07]

GTO car made on moday lol. i'd grab those MMI asap. they should be pretty cheap.

nice race man. should do a run of stock, than stage 2. vid tape it.

[Musashi3000GT]

Yeah man, My GTO had a real bad fuel map, ran rich as hell. And since Dano bought his they've upgraded the stock tunning 3 times. I got the last batch which has the richest and slowest stock tune. see why I was so happy when I finally got her tunned right?

Thanks for the heads up Bulldog, I'll try to get the wheel hop taken care off asap.

Matty........BITE ME!

thats only if you eqip it with the nitrous.

the only difference between stage 2 and three is like 1 psi, a/c gets disabled, dual pass intercooler plate, and it becomes nitrous ready.
if you dont spray, its only like 250hp
