Question:
Why do people with imports think their 4 bangers can beat American V8s?
Answers:
is there a way to get a totally free vehicle history report online to check for stolen cars?
because of movies like the fast & the furious series and games like Need For Speed. Half of the tuner culture is making your car look nice, the other half is embarassing the domestic market performance wise. Look in any tuner mag and you will see more advertisements for performance upgrades and instant HP gains that what you would find in an issue of Hot Rod or Car Craft or any other muscle car magazine. Parts for imports are so damn cheap that any little ricer with a base model civic, integra, focus, or any of the like can upgrade at will and make their car look (and often sound) like complete ***. Now looking through an issue of Hot Rod you will find half as many advertisements but the things advertised will give you significant increases in HP even though you may have to spend quite a bit to get that significant jump.what are all them gears for...?
No matter what anyone says the sound of a V8 will OWN any little 4-cyl with a fart can. Even a properly modded V6 can sound great and lay a shellacking on an import or 2.
What is a really fast and sporty car to buy, I have £12,000?
Because of numerous experiences where I have. It is all about power to weight ratio. If my four banger can produce 210 HP and weigh in at 1700 lbs it would take a 4300 pound V8 over 400 HP to keep up with it.Currently I have a supercharged V6 that puts out 330 HP and my car weighs 2200 Lbs. I have watched many Mustang GT drivers cry.
because by the time a V8 reaches a max speed, it runs out of gas.
i should know, i have a silverado and a honda
lol i don't know, but to tell you the truth they can, if you put the money in the 4 banger and not the v8 you can beat it...lol put the same money in just bout any v8 and it will BLOW away that i4
if put in the right car,
what material can i use to interrupt the gps tracking signal on my car?
Not all imports are 4 bangers. You should be more specific.can ford retrofit a vehicle from cng to unleaded gasoline?if so what do i need to do?
There are a lot of them that can not only BEAT American V8 powered cars, but can absolutely embarrass them.How about a 4 banger that runs in the 9's? Can your big V8 even come CLOSE to running in the 9's?
Is there any way I can get any compensation for buying a so called monday morning car?
NO way! (neither can mine)
the gear reduction gives the 4 bangers more top end, but a lot less torque.
damn movies... they should have never created fast and the furios. its just because they have a loud exhaust on their four banger, they think they can beat v8's... Also, they are cheap...
Beside Greyhound transportation?
because they can.The only formula that matter's where speed is concerned is horsepower to weight ratio.Every real racer domestic or import knows this.This is why my 1900lb civic with 241whp n/a can run elevens on slicks and very low 12's on drag t/a's .While i pay almost nothing in insurance,get great gas milage and spank vet's/stangs &hemi's all day long.Ask any racer what motor trend says a car can run in the quarter,add at least .5 second to that or more at toronto motorsport park.I've never seen a stock z06 run elevens.New mustangs and hemi charger's(new) always stock run over 14 in the quarter.Why do you think motorcycles are fast if they only have 100hp.Only ignorance can explain this question.More Questions & Answers ...
