DSMs not welcome. And if dont know, you shouldnt go because those old farts will rip you to shreds.

lol what?

You dont have to rev a 4cyl out.. if you think you have to, you are just ignorant. I never, NEVER reved my Z24 out past 6400 and it made plenty of power to blow the tires off at 50mph at 3500rpm when it was on spray. You just think you have to rev them out becasue thats all youve ever seen... that just makes you uneducated. its a lot different building a 2.4 4 banger than it is a 1.8, but unless youve done it, you wouldnt have the slightest clue as to what NEEDS to be done to make the power. Hell, there were guys reving to 7000 on stock valve trains making over 400whp with nothing other than forged rods and pistons. Funny part was, they were falling off after 6600. you can build a 4cyl to do the same things as a V8, all the laws of physics still apply, its just half the pistions, and twice the cams.

damn if only they were 4 lug...

haha, are you seriously such a failure at life to have enough time to find threads from more than 2yrs ago? What a pathetic loser. Besides, i was the first S40 on the site, it was something different. It wasnt like i bought a Civic Si and was like, CH3CK 0uT mY M4d 7Yt3 C1vIc Y0!!!one1!!

See now that i can appreciate. Nice truck

Thats the problem, the blame has gone in every direction but the parents. back in the day, if your kid went ape shit, people looked at the parents like they were the most irresponsible people on the planet and should go to jail for neglagence. Now days, people look at the parents with sympathy and remorse for having a "bad egg"... thats bullshit, YOU MADE HIM CRAZY!

i never siad there werent negatives... there are a lot... you didnt even scratch the surface. a) yes you can, its called boost. 2) about the same as a after market aluminum head... one head, for a SB. q) E100 is just fine. z) you have twice as much weight flying around in a V8 so im not sure where youre going with that. If its the RPMS, well there are two arguments. 1. you dont have to rev high to make power on a 4 banger... you can run a .500 lift cam and rev to 6500 and still make 400hp relitivly easy. 2. The parts are much lighter, so you can rev higher and still induce the same stress levels as on a V8.

you were playing everything but Halo. I kept trying to invite everyone but by the time people answered, i was already in matches. Mike and Brian both hopped on and played for a bit, and one of my shift managers did too. I was drinking my ass off, gatorade and everclear, so i dont relly know how bad i was, all i know is i got ketchep all over my controler and phone from the triple cheese burgar i had... didnt find it untill today lol.

yea that first one looks like kari byron... probably a chop. I would wreck that chick.

Ive always been into the 4 bangers for a couple reasons... 1. If shit breaks, its less stuff to replace... the down side is, more often than not, its more expensive to get GOOD parts unless its one of our favorite Honda or mitsubishi motors that have a near unlimited aftermarket. 2. Fuel mileage is still 20+ even if it runs rich. When its turbo charged and your running more than 35in of boost on a T4+ turbo, your milage is going to go south of double digits... hell, i figured out that i get about 9mpg wide open on my little motor that only makes 200hp. Thats just to do with fuel pressure increases really. 3. DOHC. This makes life so easy, no need to explain. 4. If you have to pull it, you dont ever have to get under the car. 5. You cant beat 7000rpm with lots of pedal left. (exception to this rule is Tinman) 6. Weight. Most of these engines dont weigh hardly anything, which is most fo the reason for the good milage while not getting into the throttle... with the exception of my big iron block from the Z24 @ 181 lbs. 7. Finally, tauntability. How hard is it to get a guy with a small block to race you if you came at him with nothing more than less than half of his motor... answer, its not.

Its a Lightning... weve all seen tons of em... i thought there was a specific reason that pictures of this perticular truck was being posted, but now i understand that he is just showing everyone something weve all seen hundreds of times before.

funny

"This deal is so hot, i had to wear my bikini just to tell you about it." .... i had to turn it off right there... LAME!

quadroople FTW

youre confused with what brian is asking, because you dont know brian, or anything about brians intentions in the other 2 posts youve made. Brian wants turbos... a turbo, like a roots, twin screw, whipple, or centripital, is also known as a blower. What Brian is asking, is how bad the lag is on a turbo V8. Brian, keep in mind... its still a V8, but now it has extra shit on top of it. Its still going to shit and get initially, but then the onset is going to make things that much better. Lag is one thing you do NOT have to worry about.

Ive been in 1 car with a 540ci BBC with a 1071 sitting on top of it, and a plate kit sitting under that. With me sitting in it, and extra 225lb (at the time) it still went ~8.40s. It was nasty, and the fastest car ive ever had the priviledge to ride in. it was by no means drivin on the street... it probaby could have, but it was a drag chassis.

I thought i was supposed to be looking for something specific.

We must beat the game on legendary... figure it out. Oh yea, its my birthday so its really not an option... get it done.

Sbc

Everyone must play. So send me a request if youre not already on my list. If you dont have my gamertag, its the same as my screen name.

whens our next race big boy Maybe ill actully launch it, and stay in it this time

Bottom line is, all things aside, primal instinct shows no mercy or remorse.
