[laloosh]

Uh, my MSP is closer to 250 whp, bub.

so u added 100whp to a msp(btw zoom zoom boom with ure weak ass internals), add 100whp to a caliber and u still will get owned...i said mod for mod....bub

im far from a caliber fanboi....go over on caliberforums and read up on my posts.

I HATE the way the Caliber looks. Interior trim plastic for roof rails? Too bad I will be watching these ugly mofos gain like 2 car lengths on me. I hate to say it, but as far as the power you can make with stock internals (read Mazda is weak....) we will be shamed by the SRT. That really sucks. I do love my MS3 and would not trade it for a Caliber, but rest assured, we will be spanked by a many a Crapiber. I know that if the motor can handle even somewhat close to what the Neon SRT (owned one and miss it.....) could, we are toast. Look into a rebuild kit and fuel pump for the MS3 to keep up. Of course I say that, no one has really pushed the "limits" (big turbo and stuff) of the MS3 since we have found a fuel solution. Not that I know of anyway. I do know that when the aftermarket, especially people like AGP, jump on this turd of a car, we are in for MAJOR competition. On a lighter note, I may have just found myself the deal of a lifetime on a wrecked 05 SRT-4.

^^^Dude, if a Caliber puts train lengths on me, I'll just point and laugh. There's very little it can do to get my respect. The car to watch is the new Cobalt SS. That's gonna be some serious all-round competition.

Actually, it's only .1 Liter larger than ours and doesn't utilize direct injection. Also, Wards claims that the engine is held back by the 2.4 L base engine liabilities.

This means to me that heavily modding this car is like heavily modding our car; risk of throwing a rod.

One thing I did notice about the CSRT-4 is that their power/torque numbers are wheel numbers, and are accurate to their claims.

hey laloosh, i'm not trying to be a smartass, i see what you are trying to say about not disregarding another vehicle, but the 150 hp is for a stock 3... the speed3 is closer to 250. you can't compare the regular 3 to the srt caliber... speed3, sure.

 

[laloosh]

did u see the 407whp caliber? Stock engine

What is fhp? I'm confused by your response. They went overboard with a GT3071R turbo. What is wrong with their dyno?

fhp is fly wheel hp

that csrt4 does not have the same engine as the regular caliber.

the csrt4 has already surpassed 400whp with ease

From what I understand, it is the same as a M3 s vs a MS3=2.3 Liter engine. Same block and internals. Caliber R/T vs Caliber SRT-4 = 2.4 liter engine. Same block and internals. It is a limited engine in terms of max HP/T compared to stock.

Did you forget about 569 WHP 2.3 L Duratec?:

LMAO, My motor hasn't blown yet, 20k miles with mods so far, so just go ahead and keep making yourself look like more of a Caliber fan boy.

How can I get owned if I don't ever drag or roll race? (rofl)

Straight line racing is really effen gay. I don't give two s**** if that fugly box on wheels can win a roll race.

lmao @ j00, still


j00--->(blowjob)<--- Caliber

No effen way a Caliber is going to keep up with my MSP down any back road, any day, any how. Sorry.
