that makes me wanna start gettin back into cars again...i miss my old 5.0
its not impossible to make a a DSM quick. its alot better to make a muscle car fast though not a matchbox car from 2 Fast 2 FuriousOriginally Posted by dano_85

heh, i post on svtperformance and that's wolverines car. And werd, gsx's are awd and the gst's are fwd. And john shep would walk all over that mustang.(i own a dsm)Originally Posted by SVTMuscle
And there is mustangs out there that will bet sheps car. You can make anything fast with enough cash.Originally Posted by blackhalo
I had a 10.40 mustang i used to drive everyday. The only thing i would do was put on slicks at the track. Most 10 sec imports you cant drive everyday
.. i simply said it would beat "that" mustang... the one in the picture. Most 10 sec imports you can't drive everyday? Hmm, there are a ton of supras, dsm's, evo's etc.. that are in the 10's and daily driven. All it takes is a nice turbo setup with the supporting mods and you have yourself 10's.. but getting into the 9's is another story.Originally Posted by gixxerboy1
I know lots of people who say its a daily driver but lets face it most aren't. I seen alot of people try but have surging problems. I don't see many 10 sec supra's siting in summer traffic or going food shopping.Originally Posted by blackhalo
Atleast thats what it was like when i used to hang with the guys from performance factory.
id say its more xpensive to get an import into the 10's then a muscle car though--dyno tunes and all that pizzaz...w/ a muscle car you twist a couple screws on the carburetor, switch some jets/springs and adjust your timing and you're golden!Originally Posted by blackhalo
Exactly, for under $15,000 you can get a 5.0 doing 11's even 10'sOriginally Posted by UpstateTank
(safely i should add, not just putting $15,000 into an import with 40 psi of boost and putting a piston threw the hood)
40psi....that would be nuts!! I want a 10 second car![]()
My friend put 28 into a his stock DSM. It ran 13's.Originally Posted by audis4
Once.
lol, i could run 30 psi on the stock turbo and it would be slower than 15 psi... my car cost 8500(2g awd) spent 2100 for a complete built motor(top and bottom) and about 2000 for the turbo setup and fuel mods(some parts were bought used).Originally Posted by SVTMuscle
I trap low 120's in the 1/4 and the car is my dd in 100 degree houston weather. I agree that domestics are generally better.. no replacement for displacement. But a NICELY done turbo setup on a import will be quick and can be done for relitively cheap.
btw, this was done on pump gas at 22 psi on a 50 trim turbo.
Slap a procharger (10psi) on a bone stock 2005 mustang and you will be pushing around 500hp to the wheels and easily run mid 11's with a a set of drag radials.
Some call them toys but when you can beat a 6.970 secnd pass come talk.

hey dsm in the youtube video does the guy just get outta the groove off the line or is that from torque steer?
I bust SVT balls because i really dont prefer the mustang. Everything with a 5.slow thinks they have a race car. Althought, i really do like the older 85-89 i believe body styles. The boxy style ones.Originally Posted by UpstateTank
In the beginning of the vid the car comes off the ground and when it comes back down its not 100 percent straight.Originally Posted by UpstateTank
yeaa i know what you mean w/ the whole 5-0 thing...i drive an 84 Z/28 and those damn fox bodies always wanna race meOriginally Posted by DSM4Life

I like that color a lot. I almost painted my old DSM that color.Originally Posted by SVTMuscle
i like the black w/ black rims...sooo ****in sexyOriginally Posted by DSM4Life
mine are better than yours![]()
The 05 runs mid 12's and the 91 runs high 11's with spray
Im putting an S-trim on the 91 in the spring. should be running mid 11's at around 125 mph
10.40 daily driver R-trim
I'm curious what the drive train is like on that eclipse. Its mostly a rwd. It has skinnies up front. A normal eclispe most of the power goes to the front wheels in the awd. How do you alter that?Originally Posted by DSM4Life

I am afraid to go above 450@the wheels with my 91 I heard the stock block has a good chance of splitting at around that power level....
Pfft I love roasting mustangs.
I dont have that car anymore. I never dyno'd it but it was a stock block and crank. I had after market rods. I used to work at a mustang performance shop. We had alot of cars going low 11's with stock stuff.Originally Posted by chuck89gt5.0
