01 CLS Vs. Ford excursion
yes thats right, the 7,000 lb suv. My boss has a supercharged one with about 250 hp and 700+ lbs of torque. we raced 3 times, all from a roll 
He had about a car length on me until 70mph then few by him, but it makes my car seem like it sucks when a huge suv beats me until 70

I remember SCC (Sport Compact Car) had an article back in the day about a supercharged & turbocharged ITR (Integrat Type-R).
Very pointless and overcomplicated... but you'd win shows with it... . . :big_deal:

it makes very much sense to have s/c and turbo for all around performance...s/c for lowend turbo for the higher end....HKS made a system like that for the ol school mr2s called the Twin charge system..its DOPE 13's with the kit on the ol skool mr2....or so i've heard

Those chipped turbodiesels run low-mid 13's at the track all day long. HUGE plumbs of thick black smoke spew out of the exhaust pipes when they take off down the track. Cool to watch.

the turbo-diesel 6.0L gets about 22mpg highway... not too bad for a 7000 lb truck!

my dad has the v10 version of it and those things are fast off the line but in the higher speeds not as fast, for such a big car it can really pull, i was driving it one day and was at a light(one of those ones taht goes from two lanes into one)there was a clk 320 at the light, i could see that he wanted to get ahead of my "big suv" so i floor it off the line, haha he was left there and had to get behind me, it was great for a huge car to hand it to the clk.
