You didn’t that other idiot did.

but your comparing modding an ls1 vs. modding an ls swap. whats the starting hp of each motor, because i can guarantee you its going to take more parts and $ to even get to your starting hp.

You just said it would take a 1/4 of the money to run the same times…I just told you someone on here got a LS1 car that runs 12.7 for 4200…

Not my fault when someone buys a car with 100hp and trys to make it fast.

like i said we are comparing peas to carrots. you spend 4200 on an ls1 and add 2600 in mods.

i buy an ls motor in a clean hatch for say 2500. add 2k in turbo/engine mods. 6800\>4500.  
do you see where im going with this?

Wtf are you talking about??

If I put $2500 in mods into a LS1 car it would run 10s…The $4200 car was already running 12s…

You realize you buy a hatch for 2500…and good luck getting a turbo kit and decent motor for 2k…but lets just say 5k total…you have probably a mid 12 sec car on the edge of blowing up…

actually if u think about, i said i was having big time traction problems, had to launch at half throttle and had to be in half throttle in second gear, therefore when i actually got traction i actually got pretty fast, same thing happened with layzie, i mean same concept but of course much faster
