buy this now..someone!!!!!!!!

[TehWagon]

wow. :eek: just... wow.

looks like the perfect deal for 96Stang!

question though...awhp = all wheel horse power?

[teh DIRT]

i always thought that was assumed wheel horse power or adjusted wheel horse power. but it could be all wheel.

[Gorilla Unit 33]

thats ****in hawt

[TROLL]

thats awesome... pretty much how much a stock RS is going for...
bryan

[Gorilla Unit 33]

no its ALL WHEEL HORSEPOWER

[TROLL]

fwhp
rwhp
awhp

i just assumed they were all going off of the same theme...

[TehWagon]

makes sense, but isn't that kind of redundant? of course a fwd car would make 0hp at the back wheels? why wouldn't they just saw whp in general, or bhp which is brake hp right?

[teh DIRT]

no bhp is butt horse power....like the butt dyno.

[TehWagon]

seriously? i've seen it used in tehnical posts though... are you sure?

don't mean to turn a for sale thread into a hp tech thread but it is interesting...

[TROLL]

it is brake horsepower which is a slightly different measurement than we use here in the US.
ok back on topic...

[teh DIRT]

[TehWagon]

[teh DIRT]

hey and if your worried about that wiring mess (not that its a bid deal since its just pointless sensors)....you have me as a repair guy.

[96Stang]

i would like to do that but i dont know if i could get a loan and all in time...that car would be amazing

[teh DIRT]

well talk to the bank. gota start somewhere

[96Stang]

i mentioned it to my mom...cause she works for my bank..she said i prolly couldnt get a loan for a car unless it was cosigned by either her or my dad...dad will never do it and mom would but takes some convinving..anyone else have 12 grand to lend me?!?! lol

[2point4DSM]

Let her know you need to start building credit and this is a good way to do it since you really need a good reliable car, lol.

You lose a larger percentage of power through AWD systems than FWD/RWD systems. So saying awhp signifies that the motor is actually much stronger than a similar car without AWD.

Not too long ago it seemed AWD dynos were a lot more rare. I actually had to convert my car to FWD just to dyno it. On a DSM that is actually pretty easy and there are several ways to do it. Mitsu made trannies and transfer cases that had switches to convert them from AWD to FWD and back. But those pieces were rare and pricey back then. Instead, I had a viscous coupler machined and welded so it would lock the front to back power transfer. Then I had a shaft that I cut short so it wouldnt' engage the transfer case. That effectively made my car FWD.

300whp it says. What it makes on 110oct doesn't matter.

Hell, I'd have 450+whp on C16, but try finding that from a pump.

93oct, pump gas is the power that matters.

[Little G]

thats pretty badass

[hellafastwrx]

I always wanted to do that to an old school scooby wagon!
