Me vs 04 srt-4,07 Cobalt ss/sc,1.8T Beetle

[jekqmb]

So last night me and my friends went down to a local area to meet up cause my car is running really good again, a bunch of cars were there. We did alittle racing and heres how it went.

First race- Me vs srt-4 with 4" inch turboback from a 40 punch he beat me by a half a car up to 100 then he started pulling away from me and he had 1 extra person with him. From a 30 roll it stayed even until i missed 3rd.

Second race-Me vs 1.8T VW bug, Mods unknown...had a boost gauge.
Went from a 3rd gear punch, had 3 other people in my car at the time, put a good train on him.

Third race-Me vs Stage II Cobalt SS/SC, went from a 3rd gear punch, he had a passenger and i had 3 other people in my car, he put 2-2 1/2 cars on me and wasnt pulling anymore until we shut down, with out the 2 extra people probably would have been a damn good race.

Also the srt-4 only lost to him by a half a car.

BTW my car is just stage I now....no more 3.0 pulley cause it was causing problems.

Plain in simple my Redline is a freak......

Good races, i ran a 1.8T beetle once when i had my supra (13.9@103mph) and the beetle kept right with me, little bugger was fast.

My brother had a 4 inch exhaust on his wrx and i have seen many supras with 4 inch exhaust, its pretty common in the turbo world.

3.0" and stage 1 causing problems sounds weird to me

Maybe it was rigged without the stage 2 belt, or maybe he was missing the stage 2 flash?????

The stock belt is usually fine with a 3 inch pulley ring from what I hear. The flash for stage 1 and stage 2 are exactly the same.

I was having really bad fuel issues......it was cutting off fuel at certain speeds when WOT.....i just took it off to be safe. My car is going into the shop Monday to get the fuel issue taken care of, taking the pulley off helped calm it down alot. Ya the 4"inch exhaust is pretty common on turbo cars
