I bet it's a pretty big build list. Alot of time and alot of money!

Do you own a srt4?

and why not post these threads in the DRAG RACING section of the site :roll:




get your hatch making 700+ HP on any engine combo and it's possible to go that fast :wink:

Get 8:1 or 9:1 pistons, aftermarket rods, sleeve and bore your block, get new cams, valves, dual valve springs, cam gears, port and polish, GT35R turbo plus all the other turbo kit goodies, clutch, flywheel, better spark plugs, a good tune and the only thing your friend will see is your tailights in the distance after the smoke settles from your tires :thumb: haha.

flyinryan122 is my hero his build is so sick

Really, drag is decently American
Its not favored in other country's
There for our power to weight is obviously smaller
Really you kinda have to know how to drive I guess
American cars are kinda lazy, hope someone gets what im sayin

I know what you are talking about. American cars are cruisers, big comfty heavy cars.

Eg's little cars with no cup holders but really fun to drive around :thumb:

Don't forget replace your trans with a spool and spend as much on tires as you spent on the damn engine.

Also all the safety equipment required when you begin running that fast.

My former roommate had a turbo H22 hatch with a spool in that time range but unfortunately blew the engine thanks to the lying-ass engine builder. I don't know if he still has the shell or not.
