While we are used to seeing some big boost cars go at it here are some mortal matchups that likely will appeal to a wider audience. The Mustang GT Coyote V8 is a popular platform as it is affordable and can make a ton of power. ...Published on 08-13-2019 04:03 PM
This is not the first Cadillac CTS-V LT4 with a TVS2650 as an Edelbrock E-Force 2650 was completed a couple months back. That CTS-V ran over 150 miles per hour in the 1/4 mile. This is the first Magnuson TVS2650 setup on a CTS-V LT4 though. ...Published on 08-12-2019 10:23 PM
A stock Ferrari 488 GTB in action here against some impressive cars. This took place at Moscow Unlimited 500+ 2019 so you know the drill. The cars line up for a standing 1/2 mile drag race and are timed in the 60 foot, 1/4 mile, and 1/2 mile. ...Published on 08-12-2019 06:21 PM
Make any car electric? That is what Polykup is promising. It sure sounds interesting and there is proof of the concept working. The owner swapped a Tesla electric motor into his Audi S5 Quattro and, yes, managed to keep the all wheel drive drivetrain. ...Published on 08-10-2019 06:20 PM
Why not show off that big TVS2650 under the hood? The Chevrolet C7 Corvette ZR1 from the factory has a carbon fiber piece on the hood covering the supercharger. That is probably a good thing to keep dust, debris, water, etc., out of the engine bay. ...Published on 08-08-2019 06:14 PM
We told Hennessey to enjoy it while it lasted. It sure did not last long. AMP (Advanced Modern Performance) set the new C7 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 LT5 platform record with an absolutely blistering 8.57 second at 160.63 mile per hour pass. ...Published on 08-07-2019 06:55 PM
This video gives you a good idea as to how a tuned Supra performs compared to a stock example. Yes, the tuned Supra on 93 octane with a downpipe has a much stronger top end and the difference is quite large. ...Published on 08-05-2019 06:13 PM
The PDR (Performance Data Recorder) option is popular and admittedly cool on the C7 Corvette. For the new C8, Chevrolet designed some updates including increasing the resolution from 720p to 1080p for the PDR camera. ...Published on 08-05-2019 04:41 PM
Well, we knew it was coming any day now. Unfortunately, Hennessey gets this accolade and is the first tuner with an 8-second C7 Chevrolet Corvette ZR1 1/4 mile pass. So, for at least a little bit, Hennessey is the quickest on the LT5 platform. ...Published on 08-05-2019 03:39 PM
A very impressive 1/4 mile result here from a Camaro SS LT1 that bolted up the news Magnuson TVS2650 supercharger that is finally shipping. This result is even more impressive when you consider the LT1 is on the factory rods and pistons. ...Published on 08-03-2019 03:32 PM
ChevyBoost somehow missed this run from LMR but you can expect an 8-second stock LT5 bottom end 1/4 mile run any day now even though we are still in warm weather. This actually would be an 8-second run if they were not fighting some TCM (transmission control module) issues. ...Published on 08-01-2019 03:11 PM
Whoo boy is this flying! It becomes even more impressive when you realize they had to row their own gears to pull it off and in the process set the new manual S550 platform record. Congratulations are definitely due. ...Published on 07-31-2019 02:31 PM
This video comes from the same purveyors who showed the Supra beating the world's slowest 135i. This time they put the Supra up against the monster that is an E90 M3 with a factory GTS flash that affects the DCT transmission and not output. In other words, basically stock. ...Published on 07-30-2019 01:21 PM
It certainly is nice you can still get a fairly big naturally aspirated V8 paired to a manual transmission in a rear wheel drive configuration. The Americans are the ones making it possible today and even doing so at a value price point. ...Published on 07-29-2019 04:17 PM
This is a good race to see from a dig and obviously traction favors the all wheel drive 335xi. The new 10-speed automatic transmission in the Mustang GT is very stout with extremely quick shifts making it tough to beat and the Coyote is updated with a dual injection fuel system. ...
