Wow wtl1964 I hope 64 want when u were born I'm pretty sure an alternator don't work like an ac unit it don't kick on if u dint notice the car was running that means the alternator was too u stupid fuck
Is the TA running any kind of a drag tire? If not that was pointless to do that big of a burnout on street tires. I agree GM needs to bring back the Syclone.
I am with Power Brake Service, we do performance brake upgrades and we need to get ahold of any of the Typhoon, Syclone, turbo GM trucks of that era to do a video of. Turbos rob vacuum from the brake booster and we retrofit hydraulic brakes to solve that. Check out my page to see what we did with a Turbo Buick and a T-bird SC, we've done the Turbo GM trucks before, but want to do a video to show clients how to install it, please let me know of somebody in the community in Southern California.
There's no point in arguing. The SyTy's are going to destroy 0-40mph. Outta the hole, they are untouchable on the street thanks to the AWD. On a strip with good tires, some of it's advantage goes away. The "what if" scenario is just bench racing. Turbos work equally well (possibly better) on V8s. A TT V8 will fit in a Cyclone. You can go as fast as you want... provided your pockets are deep enough.
This video doesnt mean all of them are this fast. The buick GNX ran high 13's and it ruled the US back then when the fastest car was fox body stangs running low 15's, and the syclone was about same engine as GNX but had AWD and lighter vehicle, I've seen them run low-13's. To the 1/8th mile like a subaru WRX they have 5 cars on my 01 WS6, but at the 1/4 I have 5 cars and run 12.4 to their low 13. The AWD makes up for HP. BADASS cars though. They need mods to run 12's. I needed headers so its =
@MrWrencher They need mods to run 12"s? Like you dont? What do you think headers and exh is dumbass? MODS !!!!!!!!!!! Sure you might beat a stock SY but a modded one would walk all over your V8 !!!!!!
And a stock SY is just as fast if not faster than a WS6
@hiwinds ive seen them go for $20,000 and up. my boss is selling his mint condition 360+hp grand national for around 14k. i like them but rather would have a cyclone or typhoon.
stock for stock my lightning beat a syclone on the street and then got beat by it at the track. i like those little trucks its like a grand national of fast trucks with the turbo v6
Question to any one... i seen this truck (stock syclone) take on a Lightning (stock) and beat em.. but i thought the lightning was the fastes truck (3rd v).. why? was the track to short? (1/4)
Syclones and Typhoons have evil launches due to their awd system that sends 65% of the power to the rear axle. Out of the hole, an SY or TY will destroy a Ram SRT-10 or Lighning Ford.
@era562 the fastest truck 'title' is based on the truck's top speed. The Syclone is faster through the quarter mile but the computer limits the truck's top speed, the lightning's computer is set with a higher top speed. So it has the record for 'fastest production truck' because it can reach the highest speed. But in a race, a stock syclone will beat a stock lightning. Always check the details of the records lol.
@era562 stock vs stock my lightning beat srt10 even some that had bolt ons. i barely beat two syclones then got my ass whooped by a modded typhoon. hands down only other quick truck ide take would be a syclone
@era562 you have to consider the weight difference between the 2 lighting was the fastest performance truck and in my opinion still is....knowing the fact that gm has produced several performance trucks in the past years and ford has only made one until recently with the Raptor and the Adrenaline debute..1.syclone 2.typhoon
do you know what hp your running now??? I know they had 280 hp stock. Upgraded turbo is a bolt on cuz there was no major machining done or internal parts upgraded. Would ya ever run against a 450 hp awd stealth??? Im a owner of 1 and think that would be a great race
Stock ls1 pull on me on the big end? This one had 150 hit of no2 and couldnt pull me. and this was with a stock unopened 120000 mile syclone with just bolt ons.
I think they were rated at 285hp. I took a test drive in the Typhoon and Have never been more impressed with the acceleration in this thing than any other car! Has to be easily over 320hp.
I bet the syclone was stock,it has 285 hores and 330 pounds ass kick AWD its hard to win againts it.GMC said it can do 0-60 in 4.3sec.there not much that can beat that.and theres nothing that can beat that for that price stock.
Alright, this vid has me looking for a sy-ty now. In '91 they were 25-30k new....used is 8-15k now built. Time to start looking. Sy/ty is an Evo or STi w/ a truck bed and cruise control.
OMG I have a 96 T/a 6speed lt1,and I also have a 98 4.3 s10 huuumm both badass rides in the video but I had no clue those syty's where that fast holy shit
