Default Purchased a car today. Pretty cool buy :P




1985 Dodge Omni GLH-T with mopar stage one performance upgrades. Had a blown turbo and motor for the most part. New motor is going in with a Turbo 2 conversion come next week. Been looking for one for the past year, finally bought my friend's. No rust, perfect paint, perfect body. All original moldings, 107k total miles. Pretty damn good shell for a 13 second build up going into it. Came with a new motor uninstalled and all parts necessary minus the turbo for a turbo 2 swap.

U say a 13 second run?

I wanna know how you lot get such low times. We've got Fiats over here with 1.4 8v Turbo engines. Came in the Renault 5 GT Turbo, which has been tuned thus far up to aroudn 350bhp and running a 12.8 q-mile. Thats fully road legal but setup for drag strip. Otherwise, Puntos, running a similar engine can only get a low 14 high 13, fully stripped, 15"s running 200+bhp (136bhp standard).

How the hell do you lot get such quick times>?

THe omni's are a REALLY easy cheap build up. I've hear od ppl spraying nitrous before the turbo for a SUPER coooooooooold compressed air charge. They are light to boot.

Here's some info for ya Daimo

Look at the numbers from the car at the bottom.
