If the Turbo is too big you'll get lag. My Probe GT's turbo has little to no lag.

The Mustang is nice...

But this is one sweet-**** truck!

Dayum! Nice stance... I like the slight manner of which the tires extend beyond the fenders...

with the charger on you should not have a problem taking those guys from a roll unless you are awful at driving. From a dig the only way you'll have a chance if you are able to hook up all of that power. With a good launch i think you would be pulling on them at the top end just a matter if you run out of track.

i think i mite need a career change haha
I know what you mean I at least had to wait until I was out of college back in 2002 before I could drive anything but my old rusty 1989 ranger. But I now have 02 f-body and an 05 F150 that were both purchased new. And both are getting modded slowly(damn money). If they can afford it why not buy it??? I couldn't careless as long as they are not the type that think they are better than someone that has a ****tier car, house, clothes, or whatever.

Got back from dynospeedracing for the final consult on the car about giving it more power...

If we put a blower on it, it will def. be Whipple because it is the best and has the best price as well. It will cost a hefty $8,000 but that is including the whole kit, installation, taxes, shipping, SCT Tuner, and 2 custom tunes (hot/cold weather tunes) Will make a very safe 475rwhp/450rwtq or more...

Or I could go the bolt on route and the car will go from 270rwhp to 325rwhp for around $1,500

Hey, what parts do you have on your rappy? I'd go for the 1500.00 build up and then do some more stuff to your quad.....

I've just have the Big Three on the rappy, I need to get some sticky tires for it.... Raptor just wants to spin all day, tires are so bad that I cant pop a wheelie unless in thick grass.

Did you post that over there? If so I forgot. But dang,that shouldn't take so long to fix? I don't back mine down, I just pull it down. I ride up, just not down...also, where were your ramp straps!!!!
