Supercharged 5k

[Rolla__Boy]

As you may have guessed from the title and description, I ruined some poor Commodore drivers night tonight, as we lined up next to each other at the lights, he had his little blonde gf in the car, all ready to impress her with how hard his VX S Commodore goes....Light goes green.....

 

And BOOM the race is on, as I pull further and further ahead of this fella, I can almost hear his heart breaking, as his pride and joy gets eaten up and spat out by a "dirty old corolla". hehe

 

I was a good 2 car lengths ahead of him by the form one lane, and all this on an untuned thrown together SC'd 5K running a mere 4psi!!!

 

He lines me up at the next lights, keen to show the world what he's got, the light goes green, and I am a little eager on my dropping of the clutch and my untuned beast bogs down and misfires and backfires out the carby...I sit and wait for what seems an eternity for the little beast to clear it's throat, then I'm off!! Hunting this Commodore down like prey. As I catch him and pull up along side of him I hear the whistle roar of his exhaust on full noise, and as I edge in front of him AGAIN he realises he is just wasting petrol and backs down hehe, I look across and see the anguish on his face, give him a nice smile and cruise off, one very happy camper!

 

Now this was only a V6 Commodore, but my car is only 1500cc's of boosted goodness. So I am still happy with it's efforts this evening.

 

Now the imagination ticks over as to what it will produce for me once it's on 10psi and has been dyno tuned :jamie:

hahaha :lol: excellent :jamie:

 

dude, even if you had a naturally aspirated 4ag, even a "lowly" 86kw engine, it would have been all over for him. doug has chopped a VY SS in his naturally aspirated 4k ke10, falcodores are is no competition for inducted corollas

 

look for a bigger fish :paw:

[Rolla__Boy]

Thanks guys. I don't want to go skyline hunting yet, not on 4psi anyways.

 

There is one thing I would have liked to have changed about last night, and that is if my engine had been in this.......

[kangaroosa]

So who's got a spare S/C for your mate Kanga? :jamie:

 

Nice work by the way. I never get sick of seeing the that priceless look of defeat on ones face.

[Felix]

cool, sounds like you had a lot of fun.

 

now stick that motor in a ke10 which is around 150kgs lighter, and have even more fun.

 

v6 commodore drivers are such bad losers. :jamie:

 

must put my SC on. just thinking drawthru SU on around 7psi for a daily.

[Super Jamie]

must put my SC on

i read that has JUST put my supercharger on, and started to breathe heavily

 

i think you need to do it, then get down the goldcoast and start hunting skylines

[Tiger]

Good effort dude :jamie:

You better a Commodore driver.. Kanga will be loving this thread in particular:p More fuel against me! lol

[oh what a nissan feeling!]

Awesome story man! i love commo drivers, all reclined back in their seats :jamie: damn funny! As for those skyline drivers............whoops, that would be me. Oh well, no shame in getting smoked by a rola, id be cheerin you on! :paw:

 

Why only 4 pound?? are ya gonna re-pully it?

[Tiger]

I sit upright thank you very much! (Well, i have to ... otherwise I imitate an unhappy cd player very well! I throw out my discs in my back) It's a good reason for me to get racing seats, because technically.. I need them.

But I will agree with the majority of commo drivers... actually.. ford drivers are worse around this area... :paw: You see their heads on the side in the rear passenger window :jamie:

[Rolla__Boy]

Yeah the pulley is too small, it wasn't so bad on the 4K but with the bigger 5K it's shit, so bigger pulley, new bracket arrangement with an idler pulley, new extractors and should be around 10psi, then I will get it tuned. Should be 100hp@wheels hopefully

:paw: lol, i guess that was stereotyping

 

I guess this means that because i drive a skyline I'm one of those rice racer boys with a massive bodykit,and a bov. and every time i pass a car i feel compelled to back off the throttle just so everyone can hear my bov go 'ptssss'. :jamie:

YUP! :jamie:

Sounds about right :paw: hahahahaha

Cmon, commodores aren't that bad.. although u are entitled to your own opinions. You gotta remember that commo would have been stock. Still, I find it funny to see the look on someones face when they see u just blew them away in a 'grannies' car.

[Rolla__Boy]

My engine is stock, obviously apart from the SC, but I mean internally.
