Going Off Topic: Yes it is my baby... it's also 75% of my bills roughly. I'm paying $272 a month, plus about $100 a month for insurance. On top of that, I am just one of those people with a lead foot. I don't go more than 5-8mph over the speed limit but I love getting on it and cannot for the life of me stop myself. It's just costing me way to much in gas to drive the thing. Not to mention I only make like $8hr plus comission at work. I have pretty much already decided I'm getting rid of the thing, it's just a matter of finding a second job so I can whittle down the loan on it and get my Supra running good first so I have something else to drive. I keep wishing I still had my Lancer. I could beat the brains outta that engine and still be getting like 27-28mpg! Course I also couldn't run any faster than an 11.3 in the 1/8 mile in it.

Getting Back On Topic: If somehow I do find a much better paying job, I'll keep it, get a Diablo Predator programmer, get the Jet servo, and switch to all Royal Purple fluids. Likelyhood: *chirp* *chirp* *chirp*.....

[:'(]Why don't you kick his buttox for us all, LOL! If you really wanna beat him... since he is cheating and all you could shove something in his tailpipes to clog them up real good. It'll bog down real bad and your gauranteed to win. Course if you ruin his exhaust it wasn't my idea.

to figure out your gearing look in the glove box for the RPO codes. there will be one starting with a G i.e. GU2 or G80 something, get that and google it to see what your rear end gears are. you should try him on the highway. see if you can catch up to him over 70.

That's not a lot of miles. If your gonna do anything internally, I'd just do a little beefier cam + a custom tune(not that you'd have a choice). You'd probably smoke him then.

They did a GMC you can see on there page. I got to tour the shop about 2 years ago (so bad ***) watched them do a dyno on a vett.
