When are we going to find out you're just another 14 year old kid who doesn't even have a license?

You flatter me, the maturity level of a 14 year old has only been something of a dream to me.

Well, in any case, you don't have enough horsepowers.

Wait, was it the cub cadet that gave me away. I figured I would get caught if I said I had a john deer, what 14 year old doesn't have a poster of a john deer with a bikini clad babe slung over the hood. Damn it, I thought I was playing it safe.

No, it was the 240 with only 155 hp. It's obvious you just looked up the stock specs on that one. Nobody who actually owns a 240 would ever: a) admit that it only has 155 hp, or b) not modify it to make more than 155 hp.

Touche

I know the HP of the 240 because it was such a drastic improvement over the SOHC model, it's a symbol of pride.
I did however resist the urge to justify it's existence in my garage by not listing all the "future" powertrain possibilities.

F20C or LS swap

[Eye of the Tiger]

My new roommate has a 400 hp 240 with only a slightly modified 2.4L.

F20C or LS swap

Actually thinking of a KA-T, my buddy has a LS 240. It's nice but I might try to keep it original. Other possibility is a RB20 if I can find it cheap enough.

My other idea was to create kind of a infusion of early performance trims similar to early german or Italian lightweights. If I can strip and trim the weight down to 2000lbs and pump up the stock 2.4 to around 200-220 in N/A form I would be happy with something alittle different.

Nooooooo don't strip it down. Just add 25 pounds of boost.

It's a canadian model with a LSD, no ps, no pw, no pl, no A/C. Not exactly pulling all the luxury out.

It will never be more than a fair weather car.

[Gotta-Qik-C7]

F150 ~ 205hp
C6 ~ 400hp
Corolla ~ 115hp
GSXR ~ 150hp

870hp total!

Not even ps? Damn. That's a race car.

[FlatBlackCaddy]

It's got a nos sticker on it too.

Ok, but just reminding you... 240hp and 9K rpm is awesome.

I could definitely use more... say twice as much.

Camry- 185hp

That might be nice, If i wanted that I would just buy the whole car which is something I am currently looking at. However if our automotive enthusiast bible(yes i'm referring to the fast and furious pentalogy) has taught us anything it's this. In the teachings of genesis(episode 1) when a honda motor won't due, stuff a nissan motor in it. They never would have jacked those trucks with some shitty d or b series in those civics.

What's Spree? A lawnmower? Sure it counts if you drive it!

EVERY LITTLE HP HELPS!

Great, a Camry has more power than my car.   

Saab 9-3 = 175 hp

And it's a lot older, too . You're lucky I don't have a new one. 268 hp seems excessive for a Camry.

How about Pat's Camry?  If it's still running that is.   

[AutobahnSHO]

It's got a nos sticker on it too.

That's MINIMUM +50hp.

1997 Subaru Legacy with the small 2.2L= 137hp

No, the Nissan. He also has a G20. He's a Nissan guy.
