  • @ LimitPushing..dude what did you expect...it's the InTech

  • you realize you lost hp by straight piping it

  • @TrickScopezz you realize you dont know what your talking about.

  • @gearhead291 really? caus the back pressure is gone right? moron

  • @TrickScopezz once again, you dont know what the fuck your talking about. it still has 3 cats and the stock exhaust manifolds. has plenty of back pressure.

  • @gearhead291 then its obviously not straight piped. trust me i do know what im talking about. i went to wyo tech

  • I will leave the second more or less issue to the experts. I tink the Continental is one of the coolest sedans around.

  • Yes, i guess the 240 is considered a "sports" car, but when nissan imported them to the states they swapped the good motor for the crappy KA24DE which is the same 4cyl motor as the tiny hardbody pickup truck of the same era. so...in a sense, dont go trying to race some mexican w/one of these trucks in front of home depot, ya might get owned "lol"

  • well sorry, but the caption said "0-60 in 7 secs" like it was something special....just my 2¢

  • @jmartin929 half a second faster than stock.

  • @jmartin929

    The only reason why it does 0-60 in 7 seconds is b/c it's front wheel drive and you have to ease it down, otherwise it just burns rubber. My brother's '01 Conti which has 275 HP & 275 TQ ran a 14.82 @ 95.10 two weeks ago in the 1/4 mile... It's bone stock. The conti in this video is the 260 HP version. In '99 it went to 275 HP. Still, 7 seconds for a large 3,850 pound luxury sedan from the 90's isn't bad at all. Even the 260 HP version is more than fast enough for most owners.

  • @IrishChris1979 a stock conti will NOT run a 14.8, not even close. get your shit straight.

  • @gearhead291

    Get my shit straight? I was there at ATCO raceway with my brother. I swear on my mother's grave his car ran 14.82

    It was only 40* out that day and the track was prepped perfectly. I have a motor trend article where it ran 15.1 at 94 mph with no traction. I was sticking up for your car man. I'm 32 years old, not some little 15 year old making up B.S. I could care less about a lincoln continental. It's my younger brothers car. You don't believe me... Awesome man.

  • @IrishChris1979 well im glad you where there with your brothers car, i drive one of these everyday. im saying these aren't capable of that time stock, even with perfect conditions. either post a time slip or video. you cannot make that claim without proof.

  • um, my stock 95' nissan 240 does 0-60 in 7 secs......

  • @jmartin929 umm.. ok?

  • @jmartin929 its how much lighter? lol and its a what? sports car? lol

  • @jmartin929 um this conti would shit all over your 240sx on 93 gas and after 60 on the highways, these cars are fast . even for the granny heavy body, from 99 and up ford put cobra engines in them so they might be similar to sixty but after that he would waiste you. NO OFFENSE

  • シブイ

  • that took awhile.

  • yes, because your geo metro is much faster, besides this is the slowest 0-80 ive ever done in the lincoln, this video was simply recorded for the sound of the exhaust.

  • @gearhead291 LMAO. geo. that's some funny shit. not really but ok if it makes you happy to throw out insults that make no sense, then go ahead.

  • They only weigh 3800, they are mostly fiberglass and aluminum. And with 275HP it is likely fast than a Marauder.

  • check the new faster vid on my channel.

  • my 98 continental gvw is 5228lbs

  • @NiteflySA HAHAHAHAHAHA. try again. 1st the continental didn't have 275hp. it was a detuned 4.6DOHC, 2nd the Marauder has a 300hp 4.6 DOHC. the marauder's run low 15's. the cont. runs high 15's.

  • dude get your shit straight the 98 had 260hp and the 99+ had 275. and mid 15's

  • @svtlincoln Okay sweetheart, 275 hp is LESS that 300hp. hence "DETUNED" and from what I've read since, it was all in restrictive exhaust. The Continentals in fact DID have 275hp. Get help.

  • @NiteflySA way to jump in on a debate 5 months later. maybe you need to go through and read everything at least twice and then come back when you got your shit straight. There was a reason the continental was a lower hp version of the DOHC 4.6 and that was the weak transaxle. and 275 is less than 300? No shit. Maybe you need to read above where in my comment i say and i quote " the continental was a DETUNED 4.6DOHC." The 1st gen 4.6 continentals 96-98 DID in fact have 260hp.

  • i have had mine for a few years its an amazing car i drag race mine in the summer there faster than the hemi chargers LOL i had a choice of a mustang or my lincoln i took the lincoln ever person just about has a dam mustang why not have a 4door one :-)

  • i agree kinda

  • @silentpaul1983 hmmmm, is your continental stock?? because if it is i wanna know how your high 15sec car outruns a low 14sec car.

  • @svtlincoln i acutally have proof that continentals are high 14 sec cars because i have a 98 and at the drag strip and that runs 14.5 with a cold air intake.

    plus the 98s for some reason shift at 6200 and the 99-02 shift at 5800.

  • @Acrom31Faulk28 and i have proof that from the factory they're high 15 sec cars. whoopty fuckin do.... i worked on the damn things for a few years. the continental was a DETUNED 4.6DOHC. it made 260hp, 20 horses less then the mark VIII yet according to your "proof" it's faster... how the fuck that happen? and i'd be willing to bet that cold air intake and even true cold air. post a vid or a time slip, or else hush. because 3800lbs, 260hp don't equal a 14.5 unless it's downhill.

  • MID 15 sec. the mark is a liittle faster in the 1/4 but not much. and the conti made 275 from 99-02. and thats factory "proof".

    and the fact of the matter is, that a 2000+ conti with free flowing exhaust, proper intake, and good performance tune can pull a low 15 easy.

  • @gearhead291 i'm not gonna argue with that at all. low 15's i believe. my problem is with the lil dude sayin he runs 14's with an exhaust and intake lol. and if your video is to show off the sound of the exhaust, then good video. :) sounds alot like my daily driver.

  • thanks man.

    what do you drive? im guessing a lincoln mark or ls? just cuz of ur username

  • @gearhead291 95 mark viii, geared and chipped. plus the muffler delete exhaust.

  • cool you should make a vid of it

  • the 98's dont shift that high all the time, iva had mine for years and its done it.. maybe twice.

  • also, i have a hard time believing that your 98 does a 14.5. it is possible, but not likely with just a intake. but hey, if it does, i'd love to see a vid of it in action.

  • @svtlincoln and u have to race with trraction control off other wise ur fucked.

  • @Acrom31Faulk28 who the hell would race with the TCS on? and i'll eat a freakin continental with the TCS on, the A/C blowing and a fat chick in the passenger seat.

  • Wow I think itd be a very close race, and I love those white gauges

  • glad u like the gauges--there projected (as u can see)

    yea its capable of faster, this video doesnt show it's real poitental

  • how many miles and have you had any trouble at all and if so what

  • 110,000 miles

    no problems but

    the transmission got neutral dropped and now

    shifts wierd sometimes.

    the alternator has a bad berring and squeaks sometimes, other than that, nothing- its a great and solid car.

  • I was not expecting a Lincoln Continental to go that quick

  • lol yea there pretty fast for there size
