PSI40L Member 175 Member For: 22y 23d Posted 02/01/11 11:36 AM Share Posted 02/01/11 11:36 AM (edited) Champ I dont think you know what u are up for 1000 hp like the boyz have told you is nothing more than a money pit and basically I aint one to father you but most of us started from the bottom 300kw I mean back in the day a 400 hp car on the street was a quick car, enough to get u into trouble, enough to have fun , unfortunately enough to even kill yourself ( knock on wood) .Like the boys have said you have to make a decision in what you are trying to achieve. 1000hp is for track only dont expect fuel consumption and something you can fill up at your bowser ... no cv rear end will hold that kind of power you will be looking at 13k plus for a 4link rear end 9 inch and billet axles plus tyres to suit. A chrome moly or carbon tailshaft to handle it will also cost you a bundle theres alot of areas you have forgotten by the looks of it...I mean gee you even start breaking things at 400rwkw if things arent done properly but when they are you got a 10sec street car that hauls ass and is drivable and u can pack up and drive away in it if you have to. Ask anyone in here that 1000 hp for the street is nothing but a waste of time when you got no traction anyway . You wont notice any difference on the street between the two .My street car makes 380 kw and I kid you not it will blaze 20 inch wheels 275/40 in third gear when the boost comes on...What more could you ask for Edited 02/01/11 11:37 AM by PSI40L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mburgz010 Member 17 Member For: 14y 15d Posted 02/01/11 09:21 PM Author Share Posted 02/01/11 09:21 PM Just in between car cause theres no where to race one were I live, I want a car I can rock up to a dyno day and have some fun, but can also do some good pickups on the streets(not drag racing). and just wanna get the knowledge in the end out of doing some of the thing myself.
