No, it doesn’t, that’s my speculation strictly, that was a guess pulled from left field, and just…makes sense he’d be around there…

The only reason I like doing pulls on the street is because it brings a smile to my face either way, I thoroughly enjoy walking a car that on the books _should_ be faster than me, but at the same time if something edges me out, or just blows my doors off all I do is go: :wow :lol

I would never put money on a race, I do it because I enjoy it

ummm…I BUILT MY WHOLE TURBO KIT down to my forward flowing turbo headers…! THEY DONT MAKE A TURBO KIT FOR MY CAR??? where have you been? So dont tell me to go build my own, because I have built 3 different kits for my car…

i was right there, he NEVER stated that his car made 371 whp… his hasn’t even hit a dyno. if you and boostin can pull on a certain s4 then we can talk.

ok, so the v6t camaro is about as fast as the sti… and the sti is apparntly capable of trapping 120 which means the v6t camaro will trap close to 120? so boostin, what did you trap with that messed tranny? 107? and your keeping up with a 120+ trap sti?? this leads to tell me the sti doesn’t trap near 120… just stationg what info i gathered.

You gathered info on Boostin’s T70 turbo, non-ball bearing with a slipping tranny…

Ofcourse you’ll defend your buddy on here and giggle and not say anything at the lot while everyone is clearly saying everything that has been said on the forum in the past 12 hours. Why bring up the stage 3 S4? No one is talking about that so quit bringing more and more cars in here…i could bring up the big block procharged S10 to run everything if i wanted, but i don’t want any embarassments going on. We’re talking the big bad GTI, Turbo Camaro, K20, M3, STI.

tdi\_logik:

If they run the same ET’s in the 1/4mi, the Camaro’s trap speed will be a bit higher than the STi’s. A car that lacks traction makes up all of the time lost in the back half, whereas an STi would be pulling from the start.

if the STi is supposedly capable of trap speeds of 120 and the camaro has done a trap of 107 and they raced on the highway and they were very close… that would leave us to believe that the STi is def not a 120 mph trap car, right?

both cars seemed very quick to me, 11 second, 120+ trap quick?

The Camaro has no more stuttering, a bigger turbo(ball-bearing now) and hasn’t run at the track yet… i don’t know how much of a difference in trap those things will make but it has to help something.
