well my friend and i finally did a quick pull on the highway from like 50 to 80 (3rd gear). Anyway he has a 95 240 with a KA an intake and I was driving my tC with Injen CAI and TRD exhaust and I beat him all three times. Each time he did the honks and i pulled on him a good 2 car lengths every time lol. He always has said how slow my car is so we finally solved that issue lol. I mean both of our cars are "slow" but whatev lol. Anyway his car obviously handles way better with MUCH better weight distribution and being WAY lower. But anyway just thought i'd let those know. Do not try and replicate...street racing is bad. But all we did was do a 3rd gear pull on a highway with a 65 mph speed limit with like no traffic so it was pretty safe. Anyway enjoy...

 

accelerating at a high rate of speed on a highway to prove which car is faster ... still sounds like street racing...

 

Yeah 240's are pretty slow. They definitely need boost.

 

a sr20det can solve that

 

yea, thats why i specified that it was a KA. SR20s are balla

 

Lies. The KA can handle boost better than the SR20's can. If you really want to be "balla", though, you need an RB.

The 240 isn't supposed to be a rapid quick drag machine. It's designed for being great when you turn the wheel, hence the 50/50 distribution. Lowered a bit with a stiffer shock/spring combo, throw on some light 17s, and give it some negative camber... trust me, you won't care how slow it might be in a straight line as soon as you start taking some corners.

 

Yea, I know. I'm not bashing 240s. They are awesome. lol i have 5 friends that have one. I have driven one of these and they handle soooo well. And yea the KAs can handle boost really well. LOL one of the ppl I know put 40psi on stock internals and it finally blew after he made like 550whp. But yea they can be quick with boost I just watched one dyno on 15psi with a KA and it put down 305hp/290tq.

 

Steve, stop with the turtle races.
