On the way home from erics house I was on 294 heading back home and I hit the toll both by 95th street and Next to me pulls a Brand new 911 turbo!!! God it was a beautiful car, but it did have some nasty black rims on it (car was black too). So I pull out of the both and I see him just dump it so I did too (I pulled out a little bit before him so I had a car lead but he dumped it first). So it was on and that was it, I just pulled away from him so fast and then after about 80MPH I saw him about 4 lengths behind me and he was starting to pull on me a little bit every passing second. Luckily the 1/4 mile is only to about 115 MPH with my truck so at that point I shut it down and he was only 2 to 2.5 lengths behind me so another 15 to 20 mph more and he would have passed me probably.

I'm happy to know I can hold my own with one of germany's finest, but I need more power now after that close one!! time for a new block and a new blower. Hurry up and test those out guys so I know what to get for my baby.


Another thing, we need some nitto 20inch drag radials! My traction sucks with 20" wheels.

 

I can see that guy now sittin at home cryin in his beer... WTF was that? couldn't have been a truck... I better take this thing back to the dealer in the morning... Somethings got to be wrong with it.

 

Nice...Congratulations!

Did it look something like this????

 

Sure matches the description, i cant wait to race that thing just to see what happens

 

Damn that looks sweet. Im kinda new here, just wondering what you have on your truck that would let you hold your own against a 911 Turbo?

 

If RtKiller is topping at that speed he is in the low twelves easy. Gues would be: Big pulley nice tune. NOS?

Hey Mark think you might come to the track for the last king of the street? If you need traction I could let you barrow my Drag Radials ifthey still have rubber by then. Also check out are AK site

there's allot more then that but thats pretty much all the stuff that help me go faster anyway.

 

well kinda but this guy had on some BBS style rims, with no polished lip either.

 

So basically...you're stock.

 

He sleeps at night hearing the screaming eaton M112 blower.

 

Was the driver black? Rapper Lil' Wayne has a 911 with 19 inch black rims...maybe you smoked a cash money millionaire!!!

 

Damn i would of loved to see that race

 

OK like I said both me and my brother are considering getting Lightning's next summer. Lets say we want to drop $2-3K into it to start what would be the best mods to start with and whats the best place to get them? Sorry for the questions I know its not regarding the race but...

Thanks is advance.

 

Hey MR2Slow,

Putting $2k-$3k in a Lightning is going to give you one hellavu ride. With a proper tune...you should be in the 11's which I am guessing would rape that little POS you have now. There are several tuners you can choose from. Here are a few:

TeamJDM - www.teamjdm.com
PSP - www.powersurgeperformance.net
LFP - http://www.lightningforceperformance.com/

Here is a list of mods you should start with:
4# or 6# lower pulley - $170
Single/Dual program chip (custom tuned on dyno) - $275/$390
Cold Air Induction (FIPK) - $200
Electric Fan Kit - $450
Boost Bypass - $25
Oil Breather Cap - $30
High-perf water pump - $100
Line Mod Valve - $90
Long tube headers - $850 (Expensive)

Approximate Cost: $2200

*The rest you can spend on installation or other little gadgets like traction bars ($450) or torque converter ($900)
