camaro V6 vs. 05 neon srt 4
 

i just raced a turbo charged dodge neon and LOST ! does any one know how i maybe could have one , because i was kickin @$$ till the turbo kicked in. my camaro was automatic transmission and his was a standard. i have a cold air intake , headers , and flowmaster exhaust. His was stock . So my question is how fast are those damn things? should i be embarassed that i lost to a 4 cylinder?

I posted this same thing... I lost to an turbo neon to... because my limiter was still on... Don't feel bad at all about that.
When I race the turbo neon on I-75 We going an 100 then i hit 115mph and couldn't keep up. I'm guessing they have an 140-160 in top speed.
Wasn't for that turbo , that *** is mine

SRT-4's are Q U I C K... (for what they are)
there are a few out there that will make a stock Viper look like you are flinstoning it!!!

Its true what t4nk says. My friend in the Air Force bought one and they are fast. I dont understand how they are that fast with that price. He's put $9,000 in parts on his and he runs low 10s on the track.

a stock srt-4 neon runs 6 to 8 lbs of boost. and runs a 1/4 mile in high 14s like 14.7 -14.9. thats bone stock. i rode in a srt-4 once that would make you **** your pants. this car was insane quick. the kid dumped about another 10 or so g's into this srt and had me pinned to the seat. they have potential. and no dont be embarassed that you lost to a four cylinder, bc well its a turboed 4 cylinder, your runnin basically a bone stock 6. with out turbo they are just a four cylinder. now if you lost to a stock 4 cylinder then i would be embarassed. lol. and well you have a v6 camaro, automatic no less, you lose hourse's wit automatic.

Get a NOS system to level the playing field. I had the same issue. A stock neon srt wont' stand a chance against a v6. but its a ricer and kids are moding the hell outta them. Ill be damn if a 4cyl ricer is going to beat an american chevrolet. I added NOS and it hasnt happened again.

I would be careful about going against any car that uses forced induction of any type. With forced induction, if done properly, engine size is of little consequence, it just depends on how much air gets stuffed into the engine.

a stock SRT-4 vs a Camaro V6 w/ spray.. I will put 1000 dollars down on the SRT!! And last time I checked DODGE makes the SRT? is Dodge no longer a domestic? Coulda fooled me.....

Stock V6 camaro's run 16's.. stock SRT's run 14's.. don't tell me a spray on a v6 camaro is going to gain you 2 seconds.. its NOT going to happen..

they r fast but sad thing is i've got a 96 camaro rs automatic and i just bought a 07 zx3 s 2.0l 136hp focus that weights 700lbs less and its a close race i had my friend in the camaro but i took him by about 3/4 of a car the focus is standard

I OWNED AN SRT-4 AND IM A TELL YOU FROM DRIVING TO RACING ONE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE. FROM FACTORY THEY ARE BOOSTING 13LBS STOCK NOT 8 AND THE HOLD ON STOCK INTERNALS 400-450 HORESPOWER. THATS EASILY 20LBS OF BOOST WITH THE RIGHT COMPUTER AND INJECTORS MODS.BUT YOU KNOW WHAT THERE AONT NOTHING LIK THE RUMBLE OF A CHEVY WITH A HIGH LIFT CAM AND A T-56 TRANNY TO BACK IT FOR THE LONG RUNS OF WELL OVER 150 MPH AMYBE EVEN 170MPH
