Was thinking the same thing. Why dump a shit ton of money into a turbo and that eng and then weigh it down with a huge box and either BTL's or MT's??//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/blackeye.gif.66a1670f5aaf7f406e783a63e3387dc5.gif

Cause I can lol.

No cause the box and that will only weigh 250 pounds tops with all the equipment in so that really is only good for a few tenths in the 1/4 and It will be my daily car also.

So low 11's with all my stereo in it and not that hard on gas and still whip alot of cars.

I dont see the problem there.

it's going to be nice for going in a straight line

Explain please.

What is so wrong with it? I just dont understand the problem.

The car is only going to be 0.4 seconds slower in the 1/4 with all the stereo in there.

It still will be fast as hell for a daily driver.

Dont road race or drive like a idiot so it will be perfect for what I am looking for.

If you say so bud. Just do it, I know I would never do it.................again I had over 300 pounds of stereo equipment in my Protege5 and it slowed it down pretty good. I was running low 15's in the quarter and when I put in the system I ran it again for shits and giggles and ran high 15's almost 16 secs. Lost almost 1 sec on it. So that was more than a few 10ths of a second. Just food for thought.

300 pounds will not slow your car down a full second in the 1/4. maby 1/2 a second and I drag race alot so I know what I am talking about. I do it every second weekend.

Umm... he did say daily driver didnt he?

Correct I dont really care if it runs 1/2 a second slower in the 1/4 mile cause it is not my drag car. I have a car that runs mid 10's already.

Also as said above the 300 pounds i will loose almost 1 second it the 1/4 then can you explain to me this.

1988 mustang coupe vs 1988 mustang hatch

the hatch is a few hundred pounds heaver then the coupe but is there time difference in the 1/4 almost a second NO. A few 10ths at most.

The difference in weight between the 2 is 302 pounds

Ok I am lieing to you.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I used to race every weekend as well. I had a cavalier on NOS that did low 13's and my dads 77 Cutlass ran low 10's on slicks with a 351 Cleveland in it. I have been racing most of my life and know that 300 pounds will slow your car down almost a second. I know my proof, so................... Also dont care if it is your daily driver, sounds like money being wasted, but is your money, so go for it.

I think that would be sick. Who cares about what it can do on the track if its only your daily. It will be fast enough when you want it to be, and it will be loud too.

For a daily driver: Very loud system > loosing a little bit in the 1/4. IMO.
