that thing would fly.
is that the way you would do one up if you had to do it from scratch?
You could just get one for 25g then put 19g into it and it would be done the way you want for the same price

http://www.uniquecarsales.com.au/pls/carsales/!unique_content.enquiry?current_rec=5&page_number= 1&vehicle_id=4776290&total_rec=111&sort_type=1&key words=evolution&photo_flag=1

which is slightly too ricey for my liking or such as this rex

http://www.uniquecarsales.com.au/pls/carsales/!unique_content.enquiry?current_rec=20&page_number =2&vehicle_id=5689571&total_rec=244&sort_type=1&uc ategory_id=8&price_min=40000&price_max=50000&photo _flag=1

My 48yo mate has a VL Turbo (he has had since new) and a 200 sx. The sx pulls 180 in third and had heaps of poke for a 4cyl. The engine is just blueprinted with a bigger turbo, more boost and more fuel.

Very fast

how fast would it be? again stupid question. if it was as easy as dividing the KW by the weight of the car then the drags would not be required. i might as well say 4.0 after all there is no way to tell.... GO DRAG IT AND GET A TIME SLIP!

So all in all no one here can give you any help at all about anything.

Then just dont reply, move onto another post. I don't want to see it get like the LS1 forums in here where your not even allowed to ask a question less you get flamed with a million " use the search button, that's what its there for" replies
