i have a 98 sl2 1.9l twin cam and this car can beat a v6 firebird and mustang... some little mods added to it but none the less people tend to think saturn sucks but they are all wrong turbo the saturn and it will run with some faster cars and give them a run for their money lol.
My dad has a stock 96 Buick regal, lets say somewhere around 200hp. I have a stock 96 saturn SL1 w/100hp,and a stock 95 saturn SL2 w/124. My 96 would get smoked, but for sure the 95 beat my dads regal when I raced him. Two big reasons. 1.The saturn is way lighter. 2.The saturn actually shifts when it supposed to. When I gun my dads Buick I notice it shifts 1000-1500 rpms before redline(at 4500, instead of 5500-6000). That should explain it for everyone.
i saw whatr happened the buick backed off the accelerator ahlfway thru because he thought he won then the saturn passed it!aint tno way in hell a 3.8 will lose to a 4 cyl!!
Well the guy driving the buick is my friend and he lost we ran the cars 5-6 times and that was the outcome every time. My friend loves his buick way too much to let it lose to a 4 cyl. He knows his car is slower then mine and I have this video to rub it in his face for years to come.
ok adassdadsad the buick has more clinder but weights about 1000 pounds more or wut. Saturns are nice little fast nices to play aroundwiht. i own two, which i have modified and can take on most cars on the road. Buick is heavy even with the extra horse power.
I still can't believe the Buick lost. I mean, it has 1.5 times as many cylinders?? Torque like whoa, and on top of all that I was sitting in the Saturn slowing it down with my weight and camera... At least I didn't have the extra weight of the nice $20 bill sitting in my wallet until after the race
Buick must have been granny shifting, not double clutchin like ya should...
Well, if you had gotten a better Buick, perhaps with a 3.8, you might have stood a chance. The Saturn in this video has 130k and the Buick 255k. 3.1's are a glorified 2.8's. Oh, and every car these days has a "multiport".
i have the same car! the buick regal custom 3.1L multport F.I! the Saturn my firned is not stock and the buick would have won if the saturn was stock!
arent those saturns rated for like 100 or 110 hp? which actually means theyre probably only putting out like 90..??? right?
