FLIGHT SAFETY TIP: Fatties out first

Question 15: This amount of horsepower in a car makes me sit up and think, "hmmm, that's definitely going to be sporty."








Question 16: On the topic of power, this is the best power adder for any engine and all other opinions are therefore wrong.








Answers soon...

I get the feeling that the words "FAHV HUNNERT" may make another appearance in the near future.

A: More engine

This is the only good AI answer.


PS: I said electric supercharger, not supercharger. My answer was a joke/gag answer which is actually a dumb scam where they sell you a fan in a tube under the guise of a supercharger, when in reality all you get is a fan in a tube that does nothing. Please revoke my points and award me an ace :colbert:.

Having gone down the whole "inherited a racing header/cut out the cat, put in a bigger aftercat" route I don't think the gains are that great. I think that the exhaust improvements=huge gains stuff is a hold over from the 60s and 70s when manufacturers were cutting crazy corners to meet emission and noise regulations.

... the 278hp 6-cylinder is a pretty entertaining ride.

Fixed. Drove a 2000 Accord V6 slush box and all 200 some odd ponies of that 3.0 were pretty fun for it's day.
Plus the leather in the interior was excellent and held up well to practically being lived out of for 310,000 miles of it's 380,000 mile life.
I always wanted the manual.... reliable and 'fun' when it needed to be.


Compared now to my 07 GTI the '00 Accord is a total bore.
I'm sure the new one with 278hp on tap would be fun again.

angryhampster posted:

It's all about the weight, people. :(
I chose my numbers accounting for the idea - I'd say about 40bhp will still just about let you keep up with traffic even in something relatively heavy, though you may have to thrash it, while ten times that will make almost anything about as fast as is reasonable for the road.

Played it straight with 15, because if there's one thing the US car market can teach us, it's that "powerful" or "fast" are not synonyms for "sporty".
