Meat...your bud is using 20" rims, not 20' (feet) rims.
You don't need injectors unless you're forcing more air into your engine. Other than that you're just going to be flooding it.
LSP lots of Khz, Werks .28 8 port.
Revo 2.5, TRX 3.3 Engine, Center Diff. Fast and Turns on a dime.

sounds like the tiny hp gain in Power is completely offset by the 20's and those injectors. I'd be willing to bet his car is slower than stock with those mods. A K&N cold air kit is not enough hp gain to need any more injector in any car. Unless he changed the tune for the injectors though the car is probably running rich at wide open but when he is cruising the computer will use the O2 sensors and fuel trims in closed loop to keep the car running well.

1:1.. 01 Z28 Camaro A4 Sure.. its stock.
1:8's.. K3, Inferno GT, and a straight line beater car
1:18.. RC18t Mamba and 3s lipo

This thread is the highlight of my day!! Can we change the name to "how retarded can meatwad sound today?" Little more fitting!
Meat does he have any stickers on the car? You know those are good for 50 H.P. a piece right??? Tell him if he wants to race for real money to come to the super chevy races at Route 66.
IT'S ALL ABOUT THE PAIN; THE INK AND THE JEWELRY ARE JUST SOUVENIERS

I'd bet a 3800SC in a Grand Am would run pretty good. Done right and you wouldn't know what was going on untill it's too late too..........

I will possibly be back the 4th but there will be too many cops out. Sometime after that probably...... Preferably a day both meat and that other car can come out.

If you can stuff one of those in a Chevy Citation and Pontiac Fiero, why not There was even one sent into Car Craft or Popular HotRodding where somebody converted an Olds Alero to rwd with a Small Block Chevy for power! IIRC, the Grand AM shared this platform too.

How much tire was under the back of it? For some reason I've got images of Pro Street Chevette's and the Doberton J2000 coming to mind here!:eek:
