Interesting thread.. How long was this race? was it on the salt plains? 133 in a pro 5 is crazy i dont even think my little 1.8 dohc 93 protege will do over 125 . Maybe off a mountain ...who knows...Jon

ok seriously though........havent posted a whole lot here but in regards to the p5 that hit 133 and was pulling......i would have to agree.......thats some insane b.s............but i will say that i have had my p5 up around 127-128 mph (not km/h) and it did take a while but not as long as you would think.......less than 3 mins i would have to say........if your from houston youll know where the beltway is and know there is nothing but open roads........so it is possible........i could have kept on it and it felt like it would have made it to the 130 mark but ran out of room due to the damn light ....(why they have lights on major road ..no clue) it was about a 7 mile stretch between the lights and i was going at it with a focus svt.that little son of a bitch is quick......had him off the launch and all the way threw 3rd then i dont know what the hell happened but that little sucker shot past me and was a good car length ahead the whole way until we hit the light(some advise...when your going that fast and you see a light ahead dont wait till the last minute to try and brake because our little stock brakes wont stop ya..i promise........i freaking slid all the way through that light and then some....freaky)so at the next light we pulled into a gas station and he let me have a peak at his motor..........GOOD LORD..........for the love of pete.........he had that sit decked.........with a turbo he said he was running about 180hp ........thought he exagerated a little on that but he was quicker then me........anyways so yes i think the p5 can do alot more than what everyone thinks it can do.........just my opinion though.................


'02 silver p5
injen cai
bosch 4+ platinum (really arent worth the $$)
red calipers
couple of stickers (what - that added about 10hp right)
thats it for now..many future plans though........ill keep ya informed on mods.........

180 turboed WHP sounds pretty reasonable, considering the stock SVT is rated at 170 (probably 145-150 whp).

Haha, wow, gotta smell the BS ignorance in the air here. 133 mph in a P5? Are you stupid pal? A P5 isn't a sports car or a race car. It's a family grocery getter. Even with a turbo, it would have trouble getting up there. Nice try, fucknut.

are you serious.......obviously you have no idea what the hell you are talking about.......so you seem to think even with a turbo it wont hit that..looks like you need to study up BOY.......listen here tough guy since you think you know everything....heres something you dont know.........ex. i have a radar gun and i have a friend that has a '02.5 p5 and we have some law friends that secured a road for us one morning just to see how fast he could go..his mods are:ngk irridium plugs,magnacor 8mm wires, jic exhaust,garrett t25 turbo(same as new stock mp3) tied in with custom intake,sustec gf210 springs,act clutch and flywheel,intake & exhaust cam,cam gears,underdrive pulley,aem pulley set and a few other toys added on.......and i will have you know...he was clocked at 141mph........so suck on that mister know it all................oh just so you know ..had dyno ran at shop and he was putting out 182whp......so i say it again..........it is possible for our little "grocery getter" to go fast..........may not pull up there but it sure as hell will get there.........so next time you want to tell me B.S. know what your talking about.......

You know you can't be mad at people for saying your full of it , mainly because you assumed that people knew what you had undr the hood(if this was even your car where talking about) everyone is saying that a stock p5 will not hit 133 and you know that .. So don't get upset by the posts , ok your friend hit 140 , he is not you , he has a turbo which makes it plausible , yet still a factory protege won't hit 133 , unless proceding off a cliff ....

i was simply responding to a previous post.....the origianl thread said he was racing a civic si and he (the p5) hit 133 and was pulling...i also stated that thats not prolly possible especially pulling at that speed.........anyways and my last post was simply to state that yes a p5 can hit above 133 ....and thats not my car with all the mods.....its a friend of mine........i have a '02 silver p5 with bosch platinum plugs,magnacor wires, & an intake.**** man ive hit about 126/127 in mine with just that .....no kidding no b.s. just straight out run.....so im not mad at anyone its just funny how ppl comment on posts when they don tknow what they are talking about.............its cool.............sounds to me like a whole bunch of misunderstandings ....thats jmo though..........until later..........................................lat er

I wasn't posting BS, or so I thought. So shut your mouth ********.

I was making a semi-educated guess, based on previous turbo cars that I've driven. If the P5 has that much trouble getting to 130, then I just couldn't see it "blasting" up there really fast even with a turbo! High end take off is REALLY hard to get in ANY car.

I never said I new everything either. Stop posting BS yourself.

Geez.
