  1. And that has something to do with??? Go give someone a english lesson.
  2. Water/Alcohol/Methanol injection is basically used to cool the air charge as it enters the cylinder. Water is used mostly for cooling since it isn't as combustible as alcohol or methanol. Alcohol and methanol are used kinda like a octane booster, not only do they cool the air charge but they also increase the octane so you are able to run more boost. Here's an example: Turbo Buicks are usually limited to about 17-18psi and around 18* timing on the street using 93 octane. By using alcohol you can increase the boost depending on the efficiency of the turbo, stock turbo you are limited to about 22psi before it becomes in-efficient, other turbo's that are more efficient can run in the 25-26psi range and so on. Not only is there added protection against detonation but you can also run more timing for even more power. Some guys are running 25psi on the street with 93 octane fuel which is quite a bit of boost. Methanol pretty much works the same way but it is a little bit stronger so there is more room for power. Personally I like alcohol, its easier on the pumps and the engine. Also it is alot cheaper than methanol.
  3. Yeah but there is just one thing different between us and them "Dad", they are assholes about it.
  4. Good Luck with the Army (Air Force here)
  5. Since this is a internet message board the only way we can tell anything about you is how you type and present yourself in your words. From what I can tell both of your are ignorant peices of shit.
  6. yeah but Blue is an ass, proven time and time again. Reading comprehension does work believe it or not.
  7. Nice swap, and yes water/alcohol does wonders on these motors I would look into it, very easy 11's even on a stock turbo.
  8. I doubt Buick would get the axe anytime soon seeing as how they are revamping their entire product line. Eventually I could see it but not sometime in the next 5 years.

    James C

    Just start typing messages to him, I am sure that would do the trick.
  10. Your car better be a pro dragster to keep up with that shit talker. Or is your buddies mouth doing the talking, you don't seem like the type to think on your own.
  11. Damn she or they are in Destin which is about 5-15 minutes from here.
  12. I was able to take a picture of the VIN on the Buick and show the DMV down here in Florida, although it was on base and the ladies there knew me pretty well (I buy alot of cars)
  13. yeah but no power till around 5500 is useless for the street. And yes it runs a full second faster in the 1/4 than Anthony's car, but with a 300 +/- hp advantage it should. Yes the car has impressive power but I would like to see something more than 200 hp BEFORE 5,500rpm.
  14. Damn my V6 gets about 12-13 around base which is where I only drive it. The few highway trips I've taken though it got about 25-26. Nice car Ant, but it looks like someone peed on it, you are gonna paint it right? I am thinking Sonic Blue?
  15. blah has better rhymes then blah, who cares, Dr. Seuss > all rappers!
  16. That sounded like a threat Mr. Quarterton, we don't take to threats to kindly around here. If you are gonna threaten people you have already pissed off, then I suggest you start watching your back.
  17. What is so hard about drums, you leave one side alone so you have a reference. Glad you figured it out Berto.
  18. That wasn't directed at Alex, and I am sorry if he or anyone else thought it was directed at him.
  19. Its growing on me, I wanted black but damn if it isn't a bitch to keep clean. That and I wasn't going to pass this deal up.
  20. Well Alex after driving semi's, buses, dozers and other various military vehicles, the Yukon is very easy to drive. NECO, We buy SUV's because we like them, and thats all you ever need to know. You don't know me or my situation so I ask you respectfully, STFU! [ 06. March 2005, 11:19 AM: Message edited by: Bad Ass Black Buick ]
  21. Well we traded in our 99 Yukon Denali for a 2001 Denali. Talk about a world of difference so far we love the new truck (picked it up Wednesday) it has alot more gadgets and nifty things, and the 6.0L V8 has some very surprising power and move that big thing pretty good down the road. Here are some pics.. http://www.cofba.org/users/beast350/2001%20Yukon/Low%20Driver.JPG http://www.cofba.org/users/beast350/2001%20Yukon/Pass%20Front.JPG http://www.cofba.org/users/beast350/2001%20Yukon/Driver%20side.JPG http://www.cofba.org/users/beast350/2001%20Yukon/Pass%20Rear.JPG and the rest are here http://www.cofba.org/users/beast350/2001%20Yukon/
  22. Marc face it the Elky will never run again. It's to damn scared of turbo cars, and there is one here waiting for you. BTW call me sometime, something has changed a little on my "situation" here.
  23. Any boosted car will see benefits from a better TB, for the reasons Chris explained. Whether it is being sucked through like on a GTP, or rammed in there like Anthony's Firebird. Get the Jantzer Anthony!
