First Turbo Kill...
 
Got back from Scottsdale last night and was itching to drive and car... so I took it for a spin at around 10:00pm. Got next to a C5 vette going onto the freeway and decided to 'open the cutout'... it was on!

He got on it at around 50mph and I quickly followed... was next to him by around 65mph and then both got on it - took him by 6 cars at 120!!!

For 5.5psi the car is just plain NUTS right now... can't wait for 8psi with more fuel :D I so badly want to take a Lambo or Ferrari (except the Enzo and Carrera GT, of course!)

That's just insane.

I wonder what it'll be when you put some drag tires on.


Nice kill BTW.

Nice turbo kill! I look forward to reading future kills.

MQMH_07 06-25-2004 01:57 PM

allmotor_2000 06-25-2004 02:58 PM

Oh yeah... forgot to mention... to add insult to injury I was waving with my left hand as I was passing him hard! :)

CLS2001_97124 06-25-2004 03:04 PM

you're mean... ;)

I've rode in a few 12's Civics before.. The way these cars pulls are just insane. The first time I rode it, and my buddy Vtec'd and Turbo went full boost... I sware my life flashed before my eyes. We were speeding up so fast that everything from the side window seems like a blur..

I can't believe you drive one for a daily driver! :D :thumbsup:

Chaptorial 06-25-2004 03:57 PM

Simply amazing. :bow:

The ultimate sleeper CL.

mantis23 06-25-2004 04:22 PM

Kill 'em all! and be safe out there. ;)

Silverbulit40 06-25-2004 06:18 PM

good kill ramanan!

VeeralS05 06-25-2004 06:36 PM

next race i want to see a video!! i think its demanded by everyone on the thread...AM I RIGHT??

CLpower 06-25-2004 07:29 PM

Allmotor, i'd love to bring our vette by to give you a race, i'd like to see what you get us by. We could get it on video too. Maybe a before and after race cause we are about to do a Head and cam package. Current mods are just 3.42's w/ ecu adjustments. Car's an A4 so it's probably a flat 13 to high 12 second car!

allmotor_2000 06-25-2004 07:55 PM

Sure... although only 3rd gear upwards... cuz I can't get traction otherwise! Although gears on that car make some big differences!!

Just PM me... we can try something

allmotor_2000 06-25-2004 07:55 PM

I am sure I'd need more boost to keep up after headwork and cam upgrade...

:woot: Did he look a little surprised that a lowly V6 powered honda product would dare beat his precious V8 power car that badly? :D

It'd be interesting to see, we wouldn't be doing anything to aggressive :)

97Acura3.0CL 06-26-2004 01:19 AM

Moodist 06-26-2004 11:04 AM

Nice kill. Especially in a CL ;). I've never been in a car that fast before, so I can only imagine what it's like. I wanna seeyou get in the 11's with 10 psi :P.

its a rush lemme tell you. i have been in my buddies 11sec 67 mustang and words dont describe.

my other buddy also has a 96 eclipse awd turbo in the low 12's and it makes me sick to think those little fuckers can go that fast.

makes my 14sec cl perform like a turtle.

darrinb 06-26-2004 10:54 PM

darrinb 06-26-2004 10:54 PM
