high ouput vs. regular 2.0

^yeah thats very possible. heavy wheel and tire combos are the wrong way to go if you want a fast car, especially in the 1320 (or should i say the 660, as you seem to prefer haha).

well does anyone know a light and cost acceptable wheel ?

rota wheels are relatively inexpensive. $450/set and are pretty light.

when i ran 16.11 my car was completely stock with the exception of a K&N drop in air filter. stock tires, stock weight, etc.

when i ran the slicks, that entire night i was running much slower than that. they air was really bad that night.

i would say my calculations are right, if they are a little fast then i would say it wouldnt be any slower than 10.4. mid 10.3's would be reasonable for me.

keep in mind there are many factors that play into et especially when the car is a fwd manual trans car. i shift really fast. and i shift even faster now that i have boogers, jonnymopars, and a pistol grip in there. i can rip some gears. where are you located, altitude is another factor. my track is only slightly above sea level.

I ran a 16.11 @ 88 mph in stock form in my other 2gn. It was at Mopars @ the Rock in 2000. I havent taken the silver 1 to the track yet.

well ive raced in san diego many times and its dam near sea level and i have a short throw shifter and can shift pretty dam fast id say no more then 1/3 of a second from power to power sumtimes the clutch isnt even all the way ut and i just pop it in regaurdless and when i do that its a really good shift lol. ive actually timed myself how long it takes to shift through every gear with letting the clutch out on each gear like just crusin in first and it only takes like 2 seconds so i consider myself a good shifter but i have come to the conclusion that its my heavy wheels so im gunna buy sum steelies very soon...then we'll see wat that does i guess.. o and one more thing wat are jonny mopars and pistol grip?

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know the emission differences as required by various states between the magnum and non magnum motors for the 2gn?

well that looks pretty cool but in the end you will have the same long throw and i cant see how u could possibly hold that pistol grip how its ment to be held puttin it into 2nd or 4th gear youd smash your elbow into the center consol lol...but looks cool neways....btw my cars dun for just got smashed into in a parkin lot by a honda crv bout an hour ago.....gave my assesment and they said it migt be a total loss....witch means freedom from payments yaaaay.... and possibly money towards my next car...

that really sucks man.

the angle on my shifter is good. it isnt as bad as you would think.

well the guy came out and looked at it and said it was only 1k fix so i think i might just let the bumper b fucked up and maybe buy a turbo?...

Post by **racer12306** » Tue Feb 13, 2007 1:33 pm

get it fixed. also, dont let the insurance company cut any kind of a check until it gets to a body shop for a serious estimate. my car looked like it was just gonna need a bumper and quarter panel and now its on the frame machine.

here are some pics for the people asking about the headers...the one on the left is mag...right ..non mag.......you can also see where the 2nd oxygen bung was added into the mag header

and this pic shows you the two different gaskets....the mag one on my non mag head leaked...so i had to use the non mag gasket...i did however take a dremel later and opened up the holes bigger to try to allow more air through
