My 3000 GT VR4

These are a few pics of my 93' Mitsubishi 3000 GT VR4 Twin Turbo. Long name, eh? lol We just put some 19 inch Axis Aluminum rims on it, with Toyo tires, and a new Tanabe Exhaust.

I'm guessing somewhere between 276 and 300 at the crank. In Japan, a production car isn't allowed to have more than 300hp

I think you are right. It is somewhere around 300 at the crank, but the new exhaust added about 40-50hp. It runs a 13.5s q/m but if I put the new Turbo hop up it will run at about a 12-12.5s. It is a very fun little car to drive, 4wd and 4ws at 35mph and up. Even has an Active Aero system

An exhaust will NOT add 40hp. It's just impossible. Also, that cow, with it being stock, will NOT run 13.5's. Now, a simple turbo upgrade probably wont get it into 12's, unless it's "stage 4" which is pretty damn expensive and the transmition probably won't be able to handle 700+hp.

You know what? For your information, it DID add 40 hp. I went to a shop that knew what they were talking about, unlike you, so don't tell me what kinda hp MY OWN CAR puts out. And yeah, it does run what I said. You can think other wise, and be an idiot, but get educated before you go saying things that are incorrect. And the cow remark pisses me off. There is absolutly no reason why you should diss on my car. You didn't even state accurate info!Maybe it is heavy, but i'd rather stay ON the road.

Hmm, so does that mean you have two dyno charts for the before and after?

No I don't have dyno charts. Just go away, and diss on someone else. seems to me that is all you like to do. Add a little snide comment here and there....Whatever, I know what I did to my own car, so back off.

I, never dissed you. I barely even dissed your car. All I commented on, is the numbers to posted. No offense to you, or the 3000GT.
