Haven`t seen a manifold yet, but i just saw that they introduced a head/cam
packege. They show dyno graphs with a 70+ HP increase. I believe that
that`s with the stock manifold.

Well I have seen one, around 96-97 Edelbrock was going to realease a
aftermarket LT1 Intake Manifold along with a new cam, never happened.
The LT4 manifold will require the LT4 heads, how ever that stock LT1 intake
manifolds can be ported, the front opening can be made to acept a 58mm TB
and will flow very well. It usally costs about $225-250.

Their ZR1 test resulted in ZR1 does zero to 60 mph in 3.8 seconds (3.5
seconds with 1 foot of rollout) and gets through the quarter-mile in
11.5 seconds.
The 2009 Nissan GT-R SpecV takes off instantly with virtually no tire
spin, and the car catapults to 60 mph from a standstill in 3.7 seconds
(3.3 seconds with 1 foot of rollout), while the quarter-mile flies by
in 11.5 seconds. The 1/4 mile was supposed to be the ZR1`s BEST
advanage and even there it`s a wash, and acutally the Spec-V BEATS the
ZR1 with a 1 foot rollout like in a dragstrip HAHAHAHAHAHA. Also, the
SPEC-V also had the 2nd best timefor EDMUNDS with a 74.7 MPH Slalom
behind the GT3RS. ZR1 got 1.06Gs on Edmunds test on the skidpad and
the Spec-V got 1.16Gs
ZR1=dissapearing speck in SPEC-V`s mirror.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA, I can`t wait till the SPEC-V PWNS the ZR1 at the RING
NEXT MONTH.
The Funny thing is that the GTR Spec-V is NOT even the high
performance version of the GTR.
It`s not even like a Z06 is to a Corvette. The Spec- NUR would be
comprable to the ZO6.

Title: I am not a fan of BMW month

I pretty much visit the Speedhunters website daily for my car fix. I actually need quite a few of those thoughout any given day. Every month lately, they’ve been sticking to a theme. I was fully on board for speed month, as they covered salt flat racing, wangan cars, and did some pretty awesome retrospective coverage of the old Avus and Autobahn circuits. This month, they are doing BMW month. I don’t hate BMW’s. In fact, I like them quite a lot. BMW’s don’t vary that much and I feel like I’ve seen it all. I guess I’m just waiting for the October theme to be announced so I can get back on board. Not hating, just waiting…
Here’s a couple of shots that I actually REALLY liked from last month. Some just look cool, others show another side of speed. I had no idea that Top Secret built a pikes peak car. I am late to the Pentroof party. At any rate, here are my favorites for Speed Month in August on Speedhunters;
