Anybody else want to wager that this moron drives an old, rusty, non matching body panel F-150 with a rebel flag painted with a paint brush on the side and a gun rack in the rear window. Oh yah, and a missing hubcap and 4 different size tires?

Hee hee hee!!!

Oh fierospeeder, PLEASE, post something you think will hurt my feelings. I can't wait to see what you come up with! It's the internet, let's make fun of RICE and ALL asian cars!

I leave for a few weeks, and this is the first thread I read when I come back. Geeze...

I will say something up front: I hate rice. Drives me nuts.
But, not ALL asian cars are rice. I do not hate asian cars.
Fierospeeder sounds to me like a kid with a fertile mind who has been around people who hate rice, and has gotten the wrong idea. Rice is not consituted as being a car from outside the US. I beleive that "all show and no go" is very accurate. 1000hp is go, no matter what you have it in. Would you consider a 1000hp jap engine in a Camaro or Corvette rice?

It's all oppinions. State yours, and let what happens happen. There is no need to consistantly reply with "All imports suck." We have gotten the idea. We know your stance on the subject.

Hey, I'm half-Mexican. My mom is a full blooded Mexican-American. She doesn't put in any time into her car Either my dad works on it if it needs it or else it's taken to a shop. Just curious, but do you happen to have a more than 1000HP Duke? If it can be done from a Beetle engine, why not a Duke? Or even a 600HP Duke, I wouldn't be impressed if you did. 600HP is nothing

wow, only 30psi. A stock 87 ford 2.3l can handle that much boost.


And to the other guy. So your going to overrev the 2.5l but not the honda motor?


Honda, toyota, same thing, both are ricers. And i did say, there is a Ricer in drag racing that is RWD. idiots


Just a few pictures of why ricers suck.

i forgot about smokeys iron duke. He used a turbo.
Greatest mechanic on earth. RIP

There was also a fiero 2.5l turbo kit that was being sold back in the day.
Pst, people on this forum dont have any knowledge of the fiero.

the article i was refering to is in the June 1984 issue of Hot Rod. Smokey Yunick took a 84 fiero put a turbo on the four cylinder to produce 250hp. the only changes included in this upgrade was a camshaft(to optamize the use of the turbo) and a MSD ignition box. there were no computer controls and very little emmision control the fiero got about 50 miles to the gallon on top of that. 0-60 times were as low as 6 seconds (better that the V-6) and God only knows how fast the car would go. all of this was used with stock parts (rods,crank,pistons,head,and block). on top of all of this the boost limit was set at 15psi, and thats with the stock 9to1 compression ratio.
for some of you that think that this was a big expensive set up it wasn't. no intercoolers. no aftercoolers. the radiator was actually made smaller. how does this work? Smokey used most of the heat from the engine to raise the temperature of the air fuel mixture to 400-440 degrees ferinhiet.
that is the only way to make the system work and optimize the engine power. i cannot fully explain this system myself so if you can find that issue the article is on pages 26-29, i think you will find it very interesting.

Hmmm... 200 hp Duke...Who could that be...

Me?

I don't usually get involved with threads like this. But, here I go. Fierospeeder, before you post anymore, you really should go back and read everything. Why? To prevent you from sounding like a moron in future posts. I'm sorry, but my engine isn't reliable. Is that stopping me from putting a Super Duty head on it? No. That's the reason why I just might find a Super Duty block later. The stock Duke block can't handle it. Jap blocks are overbuilt at the factory, so they last longer and can take more punishment. That's it.

I'm just going to skip what you said about John Force and Hondas.

One more thing...

I was just driving a '94 Pontiac Firehawk (315 hp, 6spd). You know what happened? I got my ass handed to me by a guy in a nondescript, gold, stock looking import. I had respect for that. At the next stop light, we talked a little and complemented each other on our rides.

I guess my point is, ricers are gay. Anything that can beat me in my fast, domestic ride(whatever that may be), respectable.

Bv motorsports is running with a turbo on his 2.5l with no problems.

And im thinking of someone else that is running 200hp with their 2.5l.

Yeah, that 2.5 happens to be a SUBARU, which makes it a import. But I'm surprised you didn't know that Mr. Car Enthusiast.

and john force VS Honda.


I dont see any Asian motors competiting with John Force and winning.

Or any asian motors winning against big time domestic drag cars.

oh well, domestic cars are still the fastest.
