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

 

What motor does he have in it?

I think they came with V10's...

 

Cool, which engine does he have?

They come with either of:
1. 5.4L 255 hp / 350 tq V8
2. 6.8L 310 hp / 425 tq V10
3. 6.0L 325 hp / 560 tq turbodiesel V8

 

3. 6.0L 325 hp / 560 tq turbodiesel V8

He just got in a cold air intake from AEM today

 

Those things make retarded amounts of power when chipped w/ intake/exhaust.

And they can surely embarass our traction-less overpowered FWD's off the line, tee hee...

 

we raced about 2 months agao and every day i hear it from him talking about little import cars. o well at least he is a cool guy and not a d*ck head.

 

chuckles got pzzz-owned by a big rig...

 

So he has a supercharged turbodiesel V8? Something doesn't add up

 

you can supercharge a turbo diesel, but it makes no sense to do it.

 

I guess the good thing is he probably used 1/4 of a tank of gasoline in that race.

 

wait. supercharging the turbo diesel? Where did that come from?

 

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:

 

Doesn't make sense. You let him win!

 

Tell him you let him win because he's the boss!

 

Yeap...it was called a Super Turbo.....havent heard of any others doing it.

 

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.

 

they also do it with the old ae86 corollas. i've seen 2 done like that. saw one at tas. so sweet. can't wait to go back in january.

 

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.

 

nice work, most trucks hit a brick wall @ 80+

 

yea i know that thing is just fast off the line thats it, it barly goes 80

 

alight, just to clear something up, i screwed up, it is the turbo desil only, no supercharger. also its chipped. but ne way, it kicked my ass until 75

 

haha, my dad had a v10 ram, it was a pussy, shit tons of torque tho, and i lost to a turbo diesel at the track, very hott lady driving too, boy was i feeling dumb tho....

 

You ain't kiddin!! A woman in an Excursion came up on me like I was walking on foot. She passed by me and I'm thinking to myself, "I know I'ma catch this ho with this RV on steroids." I'm approaching about 90 and this woman is still in front of me by about a half a car length!!!

I was so fuquin' embarrassed when I got home I looked under the hood and wondered where the fuque my engine went!!

 

wtf is fuque?!!?!

 

Okay, so I thought there was an auto censorship mode on this bitch. Now that I see there isn't I'll just say it: FUCK.

 

never lost to any suv other than those dam 2004 jeeps

 

yea thats kinda scary tho - a 7k lbs tank able to take our coupes? No thanks...
