Now i know we all hate rice.... I must give respect where respect is do. My friend has always been into muscle cars and evens races his dads 800+horsepower monza at a race track.
Hes had a 97 camaro z28 lowered full borla exhaust, chip, intake, all the basics. I drove it and fell in love. Power was fricken insane in it. He recently sold it and started lookin for a new car. He pondered getting a new GTO and waiting for challenger. Well his friend told him about this hatchback for sale with supposedly 450 horsepower for 5500 bucks. He went and looked and kid gave him a ride.
He said the kid was really scared of the car he floored it in 2nd and quickly let off cause it broke into a spin so bad. My friend drove the car while owner (17 year old kid, parents gave him money for car to be built and he failed class so they forced him to sell car.) The kid was scared crapless. apparently he didnt know what the car could do. The car dynoed at 405 horsepower at crank and 388 at the wheels. Supposedly will run 6.80s in 8th.
I went for a ride in it tonight. Its a 93+ hatch i believe. Its fully hontec or somecrap meaning all computerized. Its a 1.8 acura motor swap with one hell of a turbo. Car looks stock outside except for rims. Stock exhaust cause cops are *** holes (will be changed to 3inch all the way back soon). Backseats removed. Just a 700 dollar racing seat for driver and a stock passenger seat. Boost guage and all that goodness.
Well to the point. We took off easy rolling about 40mph in 2nd gear. He floors it and car spins all the way through 2nd. half way through 3rd finally catched when he hits 4th we were running 90mph and up. By the end of 4th we were running 140ph with 5th gear to go but he let off and we didnt go through 5th. The sound is so insane with stock exhaust. All u hear is turbo and blowofff valve. Its sooo nice.
Needless to say i was very impressed. Definately fastest car ive ridden in. I was pinned back to the seat from start to finish.
His dad owns a shop and he works for his dad as his mechanic and he knows his way around cars. The car has a stock fuel rail. Hes expecting to have 600horses out of this little 1.8 motor byt the time hes done. Its insane!
I give that hatch some major respect! I would probably trade my camaro for it if i could.
