All these damn 4 banger guys coming in here and starting shit... Lol jfwy! SVO's are nice for what they are, but IMO, I love the sound of a cammed, header, and exhaust V8. Beith 5.0, 4.6, 5.4, 7.5! Nice video too man!

The Ford 2.3T sounds much better than the Honda fart cans running about. Here's a video of my friends 2.3T with an upgraded cam and tube header. Some people think it sounds like a V8, what do you think?

I can agree with that but sometimes that doesn't happen. Did you see the results at Hod Rod Drag Week 2009? Bang Shift : Event Coverage : Drag Races : Jon Huber Wins Small-Block Power Adder at Drag Week, With a 4-Banger!
Not only did a 4 banger beat everybody in the small block power adder class but also went quicker and faster than anyone in the big block power adder class.
1320Video - Drag Week 2009 - Wednesday
Drag Week Rules:
- Must carry all tools with you
- Only you and your passenger can work on the car
- You cannot tow your car between tracks
- You must hit all checkpoints on the drive
- Lowest ET average for 5 days wins!

I think the field was the problem. There are 400-460 ci v8's running low 9's n/a that drive on the street. I have an efriend of mine that has a turbo'd 4.6 and run's 8.90's at 156 that drives to and from the track. But that is still impressive for that 2.3. Just curious whats the race weight of that car? -Mark

He has no muffler on it, 3" down pipe about 12" in length.

OK, I could live with it until I left the stop light. Maybe electric dumps for switching back and forth between idle mode and cruise mode.

I wouldn't expect that he'd need any suspension work to get a much better 60' - just better tires (EDIT - oh, and practice! Always helps). My coupe still has stock 4-banger suspension in it. I got into the 12's with a set of seriously wore the f out M/T Drag Radials I got off Craiglslist for $29 bucks. One had a cord patch showing on it when I put them on! But I still drove up to BMP from Ft. Myers, made a bunch of passes and made it back with no probs.
In fact, my car sorta looks like yours, but with Welds. I love the way the GT/Bullits look on it. If I ever go 5-lug, I'll probably put those on.
