Do like the SHO's but what I just dont get is hooking up a car to a dyno and doing a video, let alone posting it, and not showing the results, what are the specs? Even if it only SHOws 182 rwhp sho it dude we know the cars fast and cool. There are enough idiots out there who claim to have an rv cam or 3 quarter race cam and their car does low 12's, and we all know they would be lucky to break into 15's, just very disappointed in dyno videos which dont post the outcome. Do like this SHO & paint

@gdwordsmith1 well if you had read the description you will see that it threw down around 205 to 210 whp. Sorry i do not remember all that paul had done to his car.

@jaadams72 thats all it made??? thats kinda on the low end dontcha think? hell my Hyundai Sonata has 240 and its a 3.3l v6 and that sho has a v8?? something about that dont seem right..

[jaadams72]

@AdmiralKakarot they were 235 hp at the flywheel so 210 wheel horsepower is not bad with some mods. the difference between your v6 and this v8 is .1 liter 5 hp extra in yours and nearly the same torque. just because an engine has more cylinders does not mean it is going to be better than a Like-sized engine with less cylinders. The biggest problem with this motor was air flow through the cylinder heads. look at the 2.2L in the S2000 it makes 237 hp at the flywheel. it is all engineering

[AdmiralKakarot]

@jaadams72 well alright i guess that makes sense. imagine if that had the new 3.5l sho V6. betcha that fucker would fly

[jaadams72]

@AdmiralKakarot For sure 350 hp would have been awesome lol

[smartepants777]

Haha, if he was flooring it on the road, people would be looking for a big truck, or a muscle car, lmao. Sounds nice as shit.

[smokeywestsider]

fuck yea fuck mazdas ford taurus all the way

[xXxchipperchopperxXx]

@AdmiralKakarot yup you floor it and you get waste like 5 gallons of gas in a few seconds

[AdmiralKakarot]

@xXxchipperchopperxXx i know right? one would think that a V12 would be in the 1000 HP mark

[xXxchipperchopperxXx]

@AdmiralKakarot like some of the old V12's have fuckin under 150

[thevarekai007]

@jaadams72 yea, the S2k isnt bad. but its main reason for power is the ford block it uses. out of the cosworth.

@ scottman 690, his V8 is faster. My V8 is bigger and faster.

@gdwordsmith1 Hey buddy, read the description, and plus...not sure how just exactly how many "rwhp" you would obtain on a FWD vehicle...haha

[gearhead847]

@pretty00lights I had a 99 sho and it did a little more than go the burger joint and back. mine would stomp on mustangs and iroc camaros all day long. these are sleeper cars.

@cherrybomb1493 it is possible

[AdmiralKakarot]

@jaadams72 i know right? i i found out here the other day that the F-150 XL can use the same engine for far less cash. you can bet that i was fucking drooling
