If he'd put it in a Fiero, he'd be running low 8's.

Any more info on your Camaro? It looks sweet...

I was doing all the block work for JG Engine Dynamics back in the early to late 90's, and they were haulin ass even back then. Wasnt uncommon to be making 450whp with a 1.8 in a honda or acura. It took ALOT of block work to make them hold up though. Nowadays a 9 second 4 banger is as unique as a 9 second V8. All it takes is a **** ton of money to make the engine and drivetrain hold up, massive porting, big cams, ALOT of boost and ALOT of naaaawwwwwzzzz. Plus theres the whole inconsistency factor at the track. Youve got to damn near be a meteorologist and a physicist to make these cars consistent cause they are so high strung.

Excuse my ignorance ... Why a "wheelie bar" on a FWD?

because you want to keep the weight on the front tires and not let the rear end end dip :wink: :wink:

As far as running low 8's in a Fiero, that car weighs less than my Fiero (~2800lbs vs 3050 for my car). I don't think it would be that much faster in a Fiero platform, other than the RWD traction advantage. If you gutted the Fiero and got the wieght down in the low 2000 range then it would really fly.

They were trying for a 8 second pass, but the track was slick, that pass he actually let up slightly at the top end to keep traction.
