The Cobra intake is worth a half second on a Gen2 with full exhaust and bolt-ons. DLF has a great thread over on the LOD forum. Im on my phone, but I'll post the link when I get home unless someone beats me to it. Yes, a half second. That's no exxaggeration.

My best prior to intake swap: 14.1
DLF's best prior to intake swap: 14.0

My new best: 13.59
DLF's new best: 13.47

You do the math.

I did not see anywhere close to those type of gains. And I did IMRC billet deletes and egr delete at the same time.

 

[LaserSVT]

me too car

 

[Jacksun]

Lolololol I've been around you and sapp to much cause I was thinking same thing.

Ok, and why are you revving out to 7000 rpms? Just curious? That is beyond the powerband and pretty much at the point of valve float for the springs.

Maybe that's why he ran 13.21

Last I heard, he ran a 14. He was obviously spraying that run or has an aggressive cam setup. If I'm wrong, I wonder why he's not on the NA list because he would have the fastest Gen2 then.

 

[philly0420]

He sprayed on that run. And this thread is like going on a picnic and not getting a handjob: pointless.

 

[KStromberg]

You have some pretty lofty goals if you go on a picnic and expect that!

 

[philly0420]

Getting a handy is my bare minimum for going on a picnic.

 

[KStromberg]

lol

 

[danny_holtermann]

i think so, he has made two of the same profiles

 

[philly0420]

Ughhh what?

 

[Htrlman1]

I raced a guy on the freeway, and we were both going about 75 and I beat him by a car up to 120. 98 with intake and exhaust. So ya I would believe that

 

[philly0420]

Not me. And by intake to do you mean a cobra intake or a giant cone filter sucking hot air from the engine compartment.

He couldn't drive and you're an idiot for reviving this stupid-a$$ thread. I have track videos to prove that I ran a 13.59 and with much more done to my car than you brosef. Those Camaros run low 13s. I don't know how many times I have to tell you clowns that street racing doesn't justify jack chit. I learned that from first-hand experience. You might be king of the road until you hit the track and run mid 14s.

True dat, my truck rapes light to light but I bet you I wouldn't run anything better then a low to mid 13.

Dumb. That's like training for the Olympics but never going to them.

 

[Lincolnls00arturo]

[philly0420]

I hate this thread.

I love this thread now. Thanks Bill.

Ok, I'll play, although this is going to be more of a lesson than anything to some people hopefully.

Guy I know just did a top end swap, added an Eaton supercharger, fenderwell intake, and a performance tune in his 2000 LeSabre. 4 races take place in this video. The first two are up against my buddy's brand new Ecoboost F-150 (claimed to be mid-14s from reviews) and the last two are up against me in the Lincoln. Here's the video:

supercharged buick lesabre vs ecoboost f150 and lincoln mark 8 - YouTube

Ok, here's where street racing doesn't mean jack chit. Watch his first race against me, and then watch his second race against me. See any differences? Yeah, a HUGE frickin' difference. He did a lot better on the second time around. The track takes away all of the street factors and you're both lined up and launching at a tree while being timed and recorded by laser beams. Would he take me at the track? Hell no, never. His car prolly runs low to mid 14s. But if the second, and chittier race for me was the only one that took place for someone to make a judgment upon, they would probably say the LeSabre hung pretty good.

Too bad the second time he jumped on me WOT when I was still downshifting and I know I can launch twice as hard out of the hole. And I challenge either one of the clowns in this thread that thinks they can beat SS Camaros NA to come up here and run down the track with me. I love talking chit cause I know what I got with a fistful of timeslips and videos.
