More Dyno numbers

I was trying to figure out if the 6 seconds was in real world driving or strapped to a drum.... interesting to see what it would do on the street.

Hahaha I wanna know what YOUR 0-60 time is Mensrea.......:D
 
Well if it doesn't beat 5.2 do you think I'd post it here???? Seriously, I have no idea what this thing will run, but I bet it's faster than a Sable (unless there is snow, rain, salt, etc..... :) )

Hmmmmmmmm Dont know, you're in your own class....I mean a S600 or a S55 AMG (mercedes) has about 493....for 120 grand...........But thats an AWESOME number..... German Engineering, Japanese Precision.....

NO, AMERICAN MUSCLE BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lemme do these flywheel calculation.......20% off of the flywheel equals the rear wheel.....that makes about 575 horsepower at the flywheel............................Daaaaaaaaamn, yo!
 
Dude.....nitrous input would mean u would turn fully into the race car

so gut the leather seats, the radio the bla bla blabla

Come on man, This car's a sleeper and half.... U sure you want NOS?!
 
mercury claims mid 6 seconds to 60 mph and high 14s at 95 mph for the 03 MM. got it in writing from their intro pack for the salesman's ride and drive presentation.
 
Nitrous is probably the least invassive method when compared to turbo or supercharging. Cost is about $6-700.00 compared to $4000.00 and up. Also your talking about 1-2 hours to install nitrous compared to 6-10 hours for turbos or superchargers. Also the NOS is not active unless you press a button where as the turbos and superchargers always are active to some degree even at idle they still spin.
I have experience with all 3 and all 3 are great but NOS is the most passive.
By the way my 68 Pro Street Camaro was dynoed at 748 HP at the flywheel all motor, no power adders. 548 big block chevy.
Will be happy to post a pictures and dyno sheet.
 
Oh yea I'm also an original owner of a 87 Buick T-type (white) that has a chip and sticky street tires that just went 12.87 at 102mph. The car is ALL stock except for chip and tires.
 
Well isnt nitro only for a heavily built-on engine?.....cant you only turn it on at a certain speed.......

Sorry for my ignorance but i know nothing about the stuff

For me I think Nitrous shouldnt be used in competition..I think (no offense) its a crutch for lack of performance.....I mean come on...YOu automatically get an extra 200 horsepower just from a button? I mean, Its not like you did all the work, or anything yourself.......ur just strapping gas to your trunk and pressing a button...

Anybody else feel the same way?
