^^^ I had a ~185whp Celica GTS, so it was a little less fair.

Though rare, with the right combination of bolt ons and tune an N/A Tiburon can run high 13's. There was a guy on clubrsx that had a very nice Tibby... several videos of him pulling on a stock 350Z.

Hold on! Tiburon V6 accelerates as hard as a stock RSX-S; maybe 1-2 mph less in trap speed. Or I could be mistaken.

Conceited much?



Aww, you guys are nice for treating me so well as a guest here.


Anyways, I posted the race on Texasracers.com
They got upset at something and got banned.


I have a 2001 4 banger with a 60-1 turbo setup I built myself (stock motor). I'm putting down almost twice the hp you guys are stock. And don't get started on the torque. Not showing off, just trying to answer all your questions.
If you are local and wanna race, then pm me.

Sorry, those guys said they were on this board and just thought i might find them.


(continue flaming the ugly Tiburon)

So you are boosted. Well that answers that.

Dont let these guys get you down. Myself like many others on this site can appreciate a tuned car no matter what make.




And besides the WRX is WAY uglier than your car!

I doubt very seriously that you're putting down 480 hp with just a turbo out of the four cylinder. That would be like quadripling the horsepower for one of those cars. Espicially a turbo kit that you made yourself. If I lived in texas I would pm you just see this 480 beast of a 4 cylinder. I would then race you and just to see how much crap you talk. All I have to say that if it is putting out 480 horsepower without any other mods that I give that motor about another week to live.
