Yea...keep on backpedaling. Just admit it, you made a statement that you shouldn't have made based on your knowledge of mustangs.


I could really care less what you think, only that you shut the hell up from time to time and quit being such a flaming asshole. But, really, I'm very flattered that you care so much about 'showing me you are superior' as to consider taking the time to prepare a report with a statistical analysis of modded mustangs. By all means do.
Huh??? You do the EXACT same thing to people that you think are morons, so pot, meet kettle.

Next, you can go find me an analysis that states a tapering exhaust is more efficient than a straight pipe of equal diameter (I know this is what your general hatred for me is related to). I still don't believe what you state is true in that a tapered exhaust is the best design, and I still haven't seen any substantiated claims that it is.
Wow...you think I have a grudge against you because of a thread from months ago on a different forum???? That's hilarious. I could give a $hit about some old pointless thread, or your lack of understanding about what I posted in that thread. To clear the record, all I said in that thread is that it's a WELL KNOWN FACT in the turbo world that the downpipe is the most important part of the exhaust system for turbocharger efficiency, and that it's very common to use a DP that's larger than the rest of the exhaust for the best efficiency.

Finally, I tend not to hold personal grudges like yourself; stalking from post to post to tear apart anything you don't agree with, and singling out those whom you've butted heads with in the past. I don't think anyone here will argue that is typical behavior from you.
Stalking from post to post?? Are you kidding me?? I see TONS of dumb $hit posted on this forum every day that I completely leave alone. It's the REALLY dumb $hit like your post that I don't leave alone, no matter who posted it.


... and if you did address me in person in the manner you do here, I wouldn't hesitate in kicking your scrawny *** like it was high school. I'm generally an easy going person but typically won't stand for that type of heckling in person.
And I'm the internet "tough guy"?????

I just love it when people like you make blind assumptions about someone else and just declare your ability to "kick their ***" based on NOTHING.

PS - I'm not so "scrawny"

I was informed by someone that you were considering going this year or the next, and I was actually looking forward to meeting you in person (and also that the APS super fanboy club was planning a visit next year). I was truly disappointed when you didn't show up. But hey, there's still hope for 07.
ok..we'll see, but I wouldn't count on it since I work all weekends and it's a real ***** getting off.

You're right, this has no business being in your thread. I also have neither the spare time nor the desire to perpetuate this argument, as I know BriGuy always wants the last jab in every argument he starts. So, I'll let him have it.

Regardless, I know BriGuy tends to go out of his way to heckle certain people based on past circumstances. This kind of thing tends to really go back to the old retarded APS vs TN debates that went on here and on other forums. The more I think about it, the more I realize how much of a big waste of time it is.

"Out" of where, this thread? Dumbass.

I know that it will never end with you. I think the point has already been established that you're an arrogant fuckwad internet warrior. Arguing with you will never end if perpetuated because you must ALWAYS have the last jab. I can seriously think of better uses of my time. So, really, go ahead and take the last one and claim your "win".

The only thing that I can see is that the front and rear wheels are different. I assume that slicks are on the front.

It's a saturn Ion redline. Supercharged from the factory (205 claimed hp). Basically the same car as the Chevy Cobalt SS. With a pully change and some other misc. stuff they can put down decent E.T.s like that.

That ecotec motor is supposed to be pretty crazy. It flows really well, and can handle some decent power!

Wow.. didn't know saturn had a super charged model. Interesting.. Raced a Cobalt SS on the freeway when I first got my car, it didn't put up much of a fight. What are they running stock?

Not bad. Wonder how well they respond to mods. Type-s's are problems with bolt-ons.

if by problems you mean, they keep up well with stock Z's, then yes they are problems. But this has been discussed already a lot here.
