SCR48 Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Most of the cars with big numbers that every one likes to see spend all their time doing just that, making big numbers on a dyno in a shed. Any place else they are shit to drive. To borrow your phrase, woopy do. Im sure its possible to make a very streetable big HP car thats not an auto Personally mine for 588rwhp is extremely streetable in my opinion. I know its not huge power. But still carries a single plate clutch which helps with drive-ability. Im sure if it had a twin or triple plate clutch it would be a harder task to drive daily Again its all personal preference Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/809/#findComment-7264091 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunta Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 800hp is still 800hp when that beast wakes up it'd knock the earth off it's rotation, rajab I hate this "responsive" "street friendly" crap Get yo own phrase straw man lol For someone I know to be smart you do a great job of sounding retarded . In any other situation than a drag race a 800hp "beast" won't know which way a street friendly car went!

Captain Natro Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Sometimes i wonder how responsive you can an 800hp setup. Like i think mine is responsive [in perspective] for 600hp. Full boost at 4500prm. I wonder if i concentrated on bringing that on earlier just how it would fair... Hell should have just stroked it Put it on NOS!

It's fast but can be reasonably tractable. Above that is when it becomes increasingly difficult Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431233-mugabetown-whoretownin-at-its-worst/page/809/#findComment-7264098 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Natro Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 For someone I know to be smart you do a great job of sounding retarded Thank you, it's a skill I've perfected. "Smart" people get judged where "dumb" people are left to their own little games In any other situation than a drag race a 800hp "beast" won't know which way a street friendly car went! This is assuming there is another situation other than a drag race?

sneakey pete Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Like a front diff... Yeah, 6466 sounds a little big scott, but i'll be interested in seeing what your final figures end up at. (yes, i know you're a way off, but i'm a way off changing my setup aswell, i'm just researching).

I wonder if i concentrated on bringing that on earlier just how it would fair... Hell should have just stroked it with these precision turbos response can be pretty damn good these days. Stroked engine will always help and we are already seeing many cars being setup that way and delivering astonishing results (power and response and tones a torque) Your only issue Scottie is traction but those MT 275's will help P.S.
