Everytime I see a guy driving a mini cooper I cant help but think he loves cock & (2/29/16)-My wife just bitched at me about throwing out things we don't really use. My response of well we don't really use your vagina so should we throw that out was evidently not the right response. I had to leave the room. I missed Alan. RIP 5/29/15 - I love you son.

stroupe79 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 i have roughly 100lbs in my Jeep and it only really has an effect on city MPG..like 1mpg worse than it was..maybe...as for HP losses...you probably wont really notice anything with 100lbs in a V8...damn passengers weigh more than that!

Airborne Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 supercharge it and forget about power loss! Added weight is the only issue, find a way to counter the added weith by losing weight. Fiberglass hood, fenders etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stroupe79 Posted April 8, 2012 Report Share Posted April 8, 2012 if its a strip car i would assume you wouldnt be putting any system in it...i would guess its a street car that you want a nice setup in it and your not to stressed about 100lbs of weight in a 5500 pound car.. btw...with 18 coats of paint I would imagine he wouldnt want to replace hood/fenders and have to paint them to match...lol Quote http://www.stevemead...cherokee-build/ 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee Alpine CDE-hd148bt Alpine PKG-RSE2 PRV Audio (4) 6MB200 front/rear doors PRV Audio (4) TW350Ti dash/rear doors Kicker KX350.4 Obsidian Audio (1) 18 D4 v2 revamp (2) Stereo Integrity HT 18d2DC Audio 1.2k5.25ft^3 tuned @34hz revamp Infinite Baffle Cpillar AudioTechnix 60mil deadenerKnuKonceptz & SkyHigh wire (complete setup) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
