"its turbod, ill win"
So i was driving home tonight, just creepin down the road minding my business and this S2000 with his top down and a hotass girl in the passenger seat comes up next to me. Guy kept hittin the gas, and slowing down.... but i didnt pay any attention. We get to a stop light, and the guy revved his engine a bit (i took notice of the BOV i heard) and asked if i wanted to race. "nah man, not interested", i said... i didnt really wanna race because i just put this engine together 1000 miles ago, still havnt changed the oil, and havnt really gotten on it so i was nervous about what it would do. he revs up again and says "It's turbod, ill win", and his girl starts laughing. Well the green light dropped and i continued on in a civilized manner. Well, we rolled about 10 feet and he gunned it, giving him the early advantage. ****it... Cant let this ricer show me in front of his girl. I cracked it wide open and DUMPED the clutch in first, caught up to him in a hurry, stayed right next to him for the rest of first, (man my car screams) even though the tires were in a blaze. He started to pull MAYBE a bumper as his turbo spooled and i struggled for traction... but then I Grabbed second, car kicked sideways a bit, got it straight and caught traction. SEE YA. immediately jumped a car on him just from the 1-2 shift. got to the top of second and his headlights were only getting smaller.... This was all i needed to see, so i slowed it down and he flew by. We got to the next stoplight, his girl yelled "HOLY **** THAT THING WAS LOUD RIGHT IN MY EAR!". He just stared at me not looking too happy... I hung a right at the light and drove off in the slow cruising manner i was before this whole thing happened.
All this on a little H/C/I 302 still on 10 degrees timing. GOD i cant wait to put the vortech on

I've tried to talk several people into using that cam, and everyone seems to be pussyfooting around it. I used to have a XE276HR in my 347.
get me some numbers... plz plz plz plz!
You WONT go wrong with this cam. I love it, its badass. You know your **** adder, and this is no exception. quick question of you though, do you think i would gain anything changing the 1.6rr to 1.7s (since those ARE what the cam is designed to use)?
