    104+ or equivelant octane boosters ---

    Re: 104+ or equivelant octane boosters --- Just a bit of info on octane boosters. If the product says it raises the octane by 4 points that actually equals .4 increase in octane rating. So a product that raises the octane by 4 points you get a rating of 87.4 if you started with 87 octane. To...

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. Not too many GLH's around but many of the others like the dodge turbo minivan. This guy has it running mid 11's. Tuning goes much further then just throwing bolts-on on some project.

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. So you got < $400 and you have achieved low 14's. Here we got: 87 GN 120,000 mile untouched engine with a stock turbo, stock intercooler, stock injectors, and unported heads. A properly maintained engine other then the high mileage it will run 14.0 -14.2 on a...

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. I had already stated earlier that he might have included the price of the car but after my statement above he said that it was not re-sale value but best bang for the buck. So I have yet to figure out that 3K = mid 14's and 1K = mid 12's IF we go by best bang for...

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. If are talking about just money invested to make a turbo dodge faster then a turbo buick you are saying that you have < $3000 into your dodge to run mid 14's and I'm saying that with < $1000 the 86/87 GN's can run mid 12's...I guess I do not understand the point...

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. Less then $1000 gets the gn or t-type into the 12's. I know you are including the cost of the car in your estimate I guess but GN's and t-types are worth more on the market unless you buy a beat up one and tune the engine etc. then the claim could be the same for...

    87 Buick Grand National.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. Well looks are in the eyes of the beholder but from a bang for the $$$ the turbo V6 is impressive as far as mods vs. $$$ vs. fuel economy for a 20 year old car. The technology behind the sfi was way ahead of its time.

    Re: 87 Buick Grand National. Most moded 86/87 GN's and T-types will be in the 11's and 12's with simple bolt-ons. Just check out the turbobuick.com web site under member listings. A ton of them in the 11's and 12's. Then check out their mods. A good number of them are in the mid 12's with stock...

    Lmc window channels

    Re: Lmc window channels Thanks for the update. I will inspect the metal tracks before I start the job. I take it you did not need to take off the window and put in new brackets.

    Lmc window channels

    Re: Lmc window channels Yes I am talking about the $119 channel set by Lmc. They also have them sold as individuals at $139 each. I asked the lady on the phone why are those more. She said that they are a different manufacturer. So the kit does not come with the metal track. Did you have to...

    Advice on autocrossing a syty please

    I would go with coil overs. Do a search in the suspension section of this forum. It will be expensive but you can hang with the Porche's and Z06's all day. :D Ernest

    I just got spanked. Z28. Can we run from 70mph?

    You got spanked because: Your stock Syclone is not made to run from 70 to 150 like the z28. Your stock Syclone is not aerodynamic like the Z28. Your stock Syclone works best from 0 - 60 mph. The Z28 has the LS1 engine. The Z28 can easily be made to do low 12's. Points to consider: Read up on...
