    Default Highest power to weight ratio on IA?

    There's alot of high horsepower cars running around but who makes the most out of it?! Just curious to hear what some of your WHP and weights are...

    No, you would have 15,XXX hp then. Should have done 310/2200 = .14 hp per pound.

    Not sure if your guys are wanting race weight or just the power to weight of a car.

    If just the car were 3.67lbs per 1hp.

    Peters old EG hatch im sure was 2100-2200 lbs and made 803whp

    93H22aCX had a 650whp H22 in an EG hatch.

    I have a feeling the honda crowd will ultimately hve the best power to weight.

    If anyone has a 1000whp Vette that should be up there too.

    Torquey.....

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    Yeah Peter's(ispracing) Integra is probably 2200-2400lbs and makes a little over 900hp. Then you got Danny(B18c1Turboed) who's probably a little lighter and make 790hp then Alfonso(AnothaRRR) makes like 750hp at low boost(never got tuned at high boost) and is around that weight also.

    I wonder how much TurboDave's truck weighs.
