GMC Syclone vs 2001 Camaro SS "That is ONE quick pickup truck"

[reptiguy2397]

my dream truck and dream car drag racing each other!!!!!!!!!!! sweet

[kevin050780]

The Camaro straight up ran away with it sure he redlighted but the truck was never going to reel him in.

[ftsk420]

Not all are underrated but it does happen. Happened alot back in the muscle car era. Ive seen LS1 Camaros dyno at 360rwhp but ive also seen them dyno at 280 rwhp.

[NateDawG062782]

Most cars are underrated for horse power due to the fact that evn the smallest sand casting differences can make a huge difference and the first castings are what they use to get their factory numbers and later castings usually have differences that can only be made with a micrometer and cause huge differences in output !

[andzan9]

fuck all you niggas a marauder will muder bitch ass cars

[theCASHboyzENT]

@andzan9 now chill man every body does and should respec a marauder, but seriously think about the weight on that car and its power ratings are super low 300s that is like what a el camino is to a 80s malibu to a gnx,...

[TheJuantopo03]

i think the camaro ss win !! thats what i can see

[08SilveradoLT]

280 hp 350 tq stock

[papabugs71]

@08SilveradoLT

No doubt. & thats was under rated for insurance companies.

Car & Driver had an article in 1991 that showed 300+ on their dyno & it was a showroom fresh truck.

[netrioter]

lol....my 4 door 1994 S-10 Blazer(4.3 Vortec) rated at 205 hp. can waste a Volvo 850.hahaha.You seem to forget Mercedes,BMW,Jaguar,Bentley and SAAB all made 4 doors that would kill your car back in 94. The Syclone/Typhoon had 320 hp.They rated them at 280 for insurance reasons and to protect the Corvette.Hell....the 94 Impala would waste a Volvo.

[Sierra94350]

@netrioter lol i have that same truck in Jimmy form

[TheBigManBear]

@Sierra94350 you mean a typhoon right?

[Sierra94350]

@TheBigManBear no not the same truck as in the video the same truck as netrioter has engine and all

[xslangx]

@netrioter

your trippin, I drive a volvo 850 turbo.

stock they make 222hp with just a tune on the stock turbo they are 280+

Mine makes about 480~ lets see you beat that honey :)

[chinchillawrangler]

@netrioter chill out.

[form109]

Hot Damn!...look at that Cyclone Go!...the Camero got its ass Kicked hard!!

[98camaro1]

umm the camaro won.....

[c4nea]

after he jumped...pay attention

[98camaro1]

still he would have still one if he didnt red light

[boss12]

That Camaro got kicked in the nuts hahaha

[LTRules21]

wow my fav little truck

[8saenz8]

i never heard of a syclone is it a six cylinder or wat get back at me

[guitaroach]

4.3 Turbo Vortec V6 AWD. 280 HP stock. Only about 3000 made in 91-92(maybe 93). It's best if you read up on this legend of a truck.

There's also an SUV counterpart that's called Typhoon.

[8saenz8]

dam thnx bro ididnt no that

[mwd92]

v6 with a turbo

[6irondriver]

The 280 HP thing back in the day was an EPA max. so it's likely that thing had 4oo but it was not advertised. I raced one when I had a Volvo 850 Turbo, the fastest sedan in '94, and the thing blew me away-along with all the dust on the road. I'm not playin' , when he punched it- it was like a street sweeper.

[TekN9ne07]

@6irondriver I know man, I have a Typhoon and when I rev the engine it blows everything away from under it, I hope to post some videos of me racing it soon. I wish I had someone to record me dusting a Ford Lightning last night, lol and the lightning driver was my boss. Lol he wasnt happy.

[oDTheTruth]

Its a V6'd 4.3L engine, with a turbocharger. Google it / wiki

[TekN9ne07]

@oDTheTruth 4.3 Liter Vortec engine, Mitsubishi custom turbo, 4WD, cold air intake. hmm, what else is there to name, huge tires?

[Syclone0044]

Well, the tires are only 16x8 Rims with 245/50/16 tires - same as standard / base-model Camaros and Trans Am, and 5.0 Mustangs. But yeah, with 4 of them it adds up to a lot of traction.

[TekN9ne07]

@Syclone0044 Yea I know dude, I have a Typhoon, I fuckin love it. I'm dusting Vettes, I think its awesome when another GM product can smoke a Corvette.

[IRONSEAN7]

@Syclone0044 i grew up a BIG 5.0 stang fan,, but man,, i LOVE the syclone,, id be pretty happy with a nice typhoon also, but man, the syclone is just me as a kid,, i was 10 in 1991, and i remember the ONE time i saw one new in 1991-2,,, this dude in a GTA transam got his BELL rung by one of these,, it wasnt a long race,, maybe an 1/8 mile, but we all know how nassty the AWD is in a short run

[corvetteboy10]

@TekN9ne07 its AWD not 4WD

[7714349]

Nice truck ! Last summer I was screwing around with you on Hwy 100 in my dark blue SVT Lightning. You blew me off a couple of times. My buddy sitting next to me never heard of a Syclone, he has now.

I bolted on a few goodies since then but still no hope of keeping up with that bad 4.3.....truck flies!

[lHummerH2]

camaro kick ass Syclone or what?

[crusaderpat]

lol 'pick'em'up' truck...

[mahifish]

great lakes!

[77rAnger]

I'd love to have one, but damn, even now they cost $15000 and up

[markmarshall39]

theres some on ebay, but like you said there still high!

[dekker1330]

well finally i see someone who was side by side with a syclone...

[GMCman82]

the syclone probable has more power than that. companies underrate some of their vehicles so the insurance isnt as expensive. a syclone has a 4.3 v6 with a turbo. a stock 4.3 has 175 HP, and the vortec model has 210 or 220 HP. so with a turbo, added to it if it was big enough and pushed enough boost, i thought they might have a little over 300. i dont know how much the turbo adds to it but however much they have they sure can move.

[derekadavis87]

no a stock 4.3 tbi has 150 (i have one) the vortec is 190-220 depening on the year

[mattc0805]

my syclone is 330 hp stock, gm rated it at 280 but after dyno testing it was 330 hp

[bigtonegtf]

yeah i raced one like last week and i got burned.off the line he got me but at a roling start i pulled on him till his turbo really kicked in,we were roling round 45mph.OH i have a slightly modd 96 impala.only makin 277hp and 343 ftlbs thx to cold air intake and some bigger pipes.

[lajefadecarebear]

@mattc0805

and my camaro is 350hp stock, gm rated at 300 but after dyno testing it was 350hp just like the same ls1 engine found in the corvette! it was underrated cause a lower price camaro could not have the same hp as there flagship...dum syclone owners think there the only cars that are underrated do some research and youll find out theres many many many sport cars that were underrated as well!!

[ztwntyn8]

@mattc0805 I know you said stock but is that also stock tune? Not saying I don't believe that just curious. These trucks are small but no lightweight either right still like 3500lbs. So, it's about equal to the F body in this race assuming no weight reduction etc. Hard runnin little truck. I would love to feel it launch.

[MisterPeetBull]

@mattc0805 No it's not, its 280 at the CRANK. not even to the wheels you lying fuck. you probably ain't even got one. faggot

[XxTQxX]

@MisterPeetBull it might not be 330 but it is true that there not 280...idk why you get so pissed anyway

[MisterPeetBull]

@XxTQxX  Because i'm sick of lying fucks on here. 280 was when they were new, now they are also tired and have probably lost 10-15 horse, at least.

[drgonzo767]

@MisterPeetBull The worst-kept secret in GM history is the output of their turbo V6's were vastly under rated. Dumbass. 

[al1377]

I got a chance to test drive a Typhoon which is pretty much the same thing as a Syclone and I have never been so impressed with a car like I was with that thing. It pulled so hard and quick as shit!!

[staightuppimp]

the cyclone is rated at 280 horses the same as the mitsubishi evo viii.

[343FirNaTine]

but majority of them when dynoed stock, have horsepower numbers passing 300. general motors and other car companies normally underrate their cars power. not so much now but back in the day.

[thefear15]

uu el camaro ke duro jala =)

[beetle123]

I have never seen one of those trucks on the street. They are fast

[halo2gunner]

i want a gmc syclone

[gtnl07]

pinches trokitas jalan mamalon vato

[Kaspergaling]

both are great vehicles

[acosexto]

whats underrated

[hugoheartagram]

Unrated mean that from factory say's a number of hp and if u put it on a dyno make more hp's than factorys numbers ;-)

[ariel4more]

I'm pretty sure that is to keep insuance costs down. they did the same thing to the GNX. It claimed 250 or 260 horse (somewhere around there, not exactly sure). But it made around 300 horse.

[odelgado78]

these trucks are great, but sad because they are so underrated.

[ocelot44revolver]

I gots to get me one of them syclones or typhoons

[RoxxyLee]

have fun trying. very rare.
