Buckeye1647545503 Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Any one read this months Turbo mag? I bought one to see what new crap is out that might be cool on mine. Anyway there is a couple page article on Jay leno's SHOGUN. HELL ya! power to weight ratio of 7.06:1. What I would give for 1 hr in that thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blazinjr Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Shogun. Which one? Jay has 2 of them. One with forced induction and other has N2O. If I am not mistaken one ran high 11's and the other mid to high 12's. If my memory serves me right it also had poor 60 ft times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

desperado Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 SHOGUN's are cool and but I don't see how a FWD car with an engine transplanted under the rear glass is a sleeper. Just how does that conversation go as you are setting someone up for a money race?? Owner: Hey man, spot me the break for a yard note?? Racer: Dude, your motor is in the back? WTF? These are a FWD car I thought? Owner: NO NO, I am just carrying that around for ballast. Its for down force, like a wing. Racer: Right, and I bet that your gonna tell me that Nitrous is just to purge and it's not really connected to the motor either right? Owner: Yeah, how'd you guess? So do you want to run?

Avenger1647545502 Posted June 3, 2005 Report Share Posted June 3, 2005 A SHOgun is pretty wild, but honestly how many people are going to think it's anything more than some riceboy kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking for one forever for my Taurus" I just looked at him shook my head, rolled my window back up and went on my way. PS he had red NEON washer nozzles, it was pretty sweet. graemlins/jerkit.gif Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
