01’ Camaro 5spd, V6, I/H/E and MSD Ignition with 60k. Buddy bought the car like this and im curious as to what its 1/4 mile times would be w. a perfect driver/perfect day etc. Best case senario. He says 14s ‘all day’ and im thinking 15-16’s, then again he also thinks it has 260-270hp when it comes with 205? stock. thanks guys ---

On a perfect day, with a 80MPH tail wind maybe he’d see a 14.99 but I doubt it even then. A stock Z28 of that era was only running 13.6’ish there is no way with basic bolt ons that the V6 was close behind it, unless he can prove it he’s full of it. ---

well gotta remember weight too/gear ratios etc. He had a 99 eclipse i/h/e (140hp stock), vs my bone stock 8v 115hp and i won by a fender. So i know his driving skills are lacking lol that or those cars really suck… Wish i never sold my DSM right about now ha ---

high 15s low 16s ALL DAY. Just for example, they ran a new v6 dodge charger atoumatic on the Speed channel the other day and it ran a 16.2 . I know its a completely different car and engine, but just showing how slow domestic v6s are. ---

yah i figured mid 15s at best. Hes a good buddy, and we’ve always been ‘competitive’ with our cars against one another. Thats why i built the tsi back in the day, to shut him up in his “big ol’ impala SS”, then 240sx vs marques, then 8v vs eclipse… so im 3-0 right now haha… I refuse to swap in a VR motor so its time to go turbo shopping… ---

might as well go turbo a.j. if you can’t handle the glorious vr6 swap. in your chassis it doesn’t get much more straightforward either. he actually was hooking up a grand marquis? :wtf ---

lol a.j. yeah, yeah :sleep the 16v is a pretty sweet engine when massaged a little bit, plus you don’t see many people swap them in mk3’s. i would have used that 1.8t you had lying around in the garage you had before a 16v though. since i got to know the vr more, i like it much more than i used to. it needs more mods though to be acceptable. yes, the sound is amazing, i agree. i think the think that sold me on the motor was the fact that its so much better to drive around as a daily, cuz the power is there and decent, plus its a way more refined feel over the 8v and 16v. i don’t mean refined as in a better design, but without a doubt smoother running, and less “raw.” thats what i love about the other motors, but for a daily driver, this is more appropriate for me. maybe i’m just getting old. :🙂 ---

yah i should have never sold that 1.8t setup… under 20k on it too… VR into an mk2 its badass cause they never came like that. I wouldnt mind a built 16vT…i should have picked up that R32 and been done with it… ---

> [@germanmusclecars](#): > > theres no way you are up 50 to the wheels with those 3 mods… :confused it wasn’t whp he was estimating his crank hp, still i/h/e will not add close to 50hp, let alone 20…if there is a i/h/e set up that will add that much, i’d love to know who makes it :rofl :haha ---
