Yes you sure can squeeze a 20hp on an 8 cylinder car easier than a crossfire. But I dont think i have mentioned anything about making more pwer is easy with the crossfire. I think you need to re-read my post, or are you having trouble reading? Damn public schools. I am pretty sure I have said that it is a lot easier to cut down some tenths from a 14 second car. and it is the case.
200 to the wheels would be around 230-235hp at the crank. Are you telling me that a highly modified crossfire only gains about 15 - 20hp at the crank and that is it? I am pretty sure I can dig through my PMs and find a PM which a member told me he made around 275 at the crank with his modified crossfire. If I am not mistaking, he had cams as well.
Just because I havent modified a crossfire doesnt mean I dont know anything about them. I know physics and I KNOW drag racing. The way the car performed stock, should hit 13s modified N/A. Period.
You can't drive your car, and you take the credit off from the car. The car can perform, but can you? It appears not since you are all defensive on my comment that a modified N/A crossfire should see 13s.
Again, this is a bench talk and it will always be. If you want, I can drive your modified crossfire, run a 13 sec and throw you back the keys. Just let me know.
I think you are trying to feel better about your driving abilities by defending a modified ccrossfire is a 14 second car since you couldnt get her into 13s.
ttyl
Defensive much?
I did not say a single personal thing about you, kept it all about the cars, but saying I can't drive my car, don't know anything about cars and telling me to STFU when I posted something questioning what you
say can be done, but never have and
never will is a little harsh. And do not get your upbringing confused with mine, I attended private religious schools for 12 years before attending a top ranked university to learn about physics, electronics, computing, and engineering. You said you knew plenty about physics, which program did you graduate from?
You don't even own a crossfire and continually tell people how awesome you can make one, but don't have the money, then it is you I tell to STFU. I am here, have a nice car and DO NOT talk **** about what time it COULD run because I choose not to race it down a straight line for 1/4 mile. I am not saying I have a 13 second car, because I don't, what I am saying is that you should do a little homework before talking like that to someone who has been around this stuff for a while.
Since you know so much more than me, I would like you to show me some CAMs for an NA please. LMFAO
If I remember correctly you had no idea what a CDV was before I educated you about them.
I am done arguing with someone who obviously knows EVERYTHING about everything and has the record to prive it. Once you get yourself a crossfire and get it to 275HP let me know, until then, I am done being insulted by someone who obviously has no class and feels a need for personal attacks.
