It sucks being here, because most of the links people send me don't work. Also, I can't see a lot of pictures that people post because the pictures are on a site that the gov. blocks off. I have a few videos on my computer at home that has some 7 sec. Mustangs. I've seen some fast DSM's, don't get me wrong. But I've also seen some twin-turbo Mustangs that were completely BAMF. The problem with turbocharged 4bangers is that you have to let the power build, where as with V8's, it's there right from the get go. And the torque numbers aren't even comparable. I'll see if I can have my wife send me a CD that has all my car vids burned onto it so I can try to find a place to post them, but it takes about 2 weeks for mail to get to me. To see the vid I tried to give you a link to, do a Google search for Z51R. There's about eleventy-billion pages that have that video.

Oh yeah, and you'll be hard-pressed to find anything with an exhaust note as intimidating as that of a V-8... There's no sound like it in the world.

Do a search for John Shepard and DSM. He still holds the record for fastest 1/4 time on street tires. He was running I think it was 8's on street tires [sm=yikesomg.gif]

DSM stands for Diamond star motors. Its the series of cars knows as Mitsu Eclipse Plymoth laser and Eagle Talon. All the cars were the same just slight diffrence in body. Same motor and tranny from 90-97. People just called them DSM Diamond for the Mistu symbol and Stary for the plymoth/chrysler logo
