Sure, I'll use my motorcycle :D 2.4's don't really do much of anything for HP. They spin the turbo up sooner and make the bigger turbo's more streetable. That is really about the only difference from what I have found. There is probably a small difference in HP, but not much. For the most part bore = HP, the bore on the 2.4 isn't much bigger than a 2.0 (which could be bored out equal to a 2.4).

This wasn't me.

Re: Challenge Thread
 

I give, who said that?

As for it keeping up with my car last year, I hope so! My car wasnt any faster with the 50 trim than it was with the small 16G. Though if you want to challenge me this year, I'll be glad to oblige. Im not upgrading the turbo, just fixing the motor.

I'll shut my craw when I get beat by a HORT car. Until then, I aint buyin the shit they're shoveling.

If he makes over 500 whp, it'd be a good run against a 750cc bike. With a fast spooling turbo like his, it'd probably trap 128-129 which is a little bit more than enough to beat/slowly pull a 750 imho. I get this from Shaun and I both having raced bikes, anywhere from 600-1000cc and we both trapped low 130. We hung, if not, pulled away from new R1's.

I will let you know if/when my car is running. The only "mod" for me will most likely be dsmlink. I am just tring to fix my motor also. It will either be a used 6 bolt or a set of rings and bearings on a motor I already have. Mike is going to give me a good deal on a block that sounds good but I may try and talk to a couple of machine shops also.

Sorry I don't mean to jump into the middle of this but... Jet didn't you state this??.(directly from attack forums thread..copy and pasted)

Kevin, you don't need to go there again. He has already explained this numerous times. It has already been discussed in this thread and it also has its own thread in the parking lot. I don't care what he said exactly, he meant to say what his setup was capable of. If you want to know more about his comment on the attack forums you can PM him.

I challenge Shane to a game of cards; war to be exact!

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

I challenge Ecoli's POS 2G as soon as my 1G FWD is done Bwahahahahaha.

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

So why do YOU have to jump in and mess with MY post?? I dont care if your a moderator... What was said was said for a reason. Jet and I have talked and its not your business. Sorry to come off as an asshole.

oh and by the way I challenge you Craig!!! and please don't change my post's I really find that offensive especially when it has nothing to do with you.

Let me see what kind of power my car puts down 1st. Unlike some of the people on this site I know what my car can and can't do, so I'm not going to race someone one for money that I know will beat me.

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

Looks like you are the only smart one then. You may know what your car can do but not what the accord kids car can do or anyone else for that matter. Maybe I will show up with an 800hp single turbo surpa calling it my beater (not likely, but you never know what anyone has).

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

Does Craig even own a DSM? :confused:

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

I think I have seen him in a peice of shit FWD dsm at the dynofest. Craig does not have a fast car. That is why he claims to be the best driver... besides Jet atleast.

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

I could care less what the accord kids car will do. He won't beat me.
And WTF does me calling my car beater have to do with anything? The bottom line is it is my beater. The car is a POS plan and simple.

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

I agree... No one ever said you couldn't mod your beater.

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

Yeah he does. And guess what, his runs! ;)

Re: Official 2005 Challenge Thread
 

I drive my pos beater everyday as well. But it should take more then some 800whp supra by spring to take me down.
