Rephrase or concede.


And answer my previous post. What brand of slushbox do you have? I'm guessing a PA Super Comp or something, 8" converter?
You know technically any exhaust that's not factory is illegal. So aftermarket exhausts are out? Why don't we take out mods too. Who has the fastest stock car then? These threads never work right. I think we had enough of your thread refereeing for now. Let the thread flow without your biased interpretations of what a DD is.

Yes, I know. I'm the one who made the goddamned thread about Florida exhaust laws that got stickied.

Check out what was hanging off of his car.

Compare it to a modified car with a full pipe exiting behind the rear wheel, without a cat, with a high flow muffler.

Whats that, probably 3.5k-4k RPMs at a normal interstate cruising speed (60-70MPH) and your redline is around 6-7k? Mhm, well I bet its a nice 8" race converter with a bigass stall. You know, the kind that start to heat up in stop and go; but who knows, I might be wrong.



Sounds to me like your car has more of an identity crisis that I have a political party identity crisis. Its a track car that wants to be a DD.

I do not need a muffler and my car is quiet off boost, as I am sure you know the turbo actually acts as a muffler at cruising speeds. Cats, you are stretching again. You know damn well regardless of the power level many a car on this site has no cats. Plus there is no emissions anyhow.

Big stall on a turbo car ? Come on Jr. you have a lot to learn. With the stock turbo motor in there it was driven to the track every time with a much higher stall and no overheating. I now have way less stall, a bigger cooler with fan, and superior fluid.

Far from a identity crisis. Because I own other cars does not change the fact it can and has been driven daily. Your rules are changing as much as your political affiliation.

I find the ones that like to fight this fight are the one looking to discredit others while trying to prop their own.

Your points are relevant; however, I still stand by the last sentence in my previous post.

My old daily driver ran 7.0s at Sunshine @ approx 3600-3700lbs and an automatic.

I'm sure it's not the fastest, but it's up there! Loaded, too..convertible, leather, auto, cruise, power everything, stereo system..

well....back to the original topic.

In 2000, my Civic Si Turbo was my DD. It had a best of 12.7

Currently, my 2007 Camry SE V6 is my DD. I hear they get 14.7. I know I have spanked a few unsuspecting hondas around town.

I'm sure that is nowhere near the fastest though.

And a DD is a car that spend the majority of your work week driving. So Scott....that would be your M45, not your Mustang.

Did it have cats ?

OEM mufflers ?

A/C ?

Navigation ?

Stock wheels ?

Stock Brakes ?

Stock suspension ?

Blah



You get the point.

No cats, Flowmasters, A/C, no Navi, Steeda wheels, stock brakes, was lowered and had frame connectors, but nothing that improved traction.

It was literally my daily driver, though. It was my only car at the time.

Then according to these parameters when I start DD'ing the Mustang every day to work come mid October I can rehash this ?

And the M45 went 14.4's @ 100 fully loaded with fuel on a 90 degree day at BMP. Not bad for a 4,000+ sled.
