Hi, im new here!im from Mozambique...well right next to South Africa! the modd scene here is still a baby as you can imagine we are a small and poor country we dont have resources to compete with you guys or with South Africa right next door, but we are growing! we have like 10-20 real modded cars in town and about a bunch a guys with neons and exhauts(about 100 my guess)...

Right now i own a 94 Mitsubishi FTO(2.0L Mivec-200hp)(75hp nitrous F1X exhaust and K&N filter) and im working on a 96 Supra NA, they´ve just finished the work on the engine(T66 turbo install and 100hp nitrous system), wasted like 10k usd, cause i also fitted porche brakes and upgraded disks at the front, and M5 E36(46?) rear brakes and disks! right now theyr doing body work(painting, leather interior, lambo doors, sound etc) another 8-10k i guess, but it will only be ready on september...
ill post some pics of the current status as soon as i find a suitable place to upload them(help anyone?)!

So my question is this, how much power will get from this installation and what 1/4 times i will be looking at? The guys that fitted the turbo, wont get me any details, only after 2000km and they finish the job! cant wait that long...ehehe
right now the king in town is a 89 BMW 325is(upgraded to 2.8L fitted with turbo and nitrous) ive seen him smoke in 1/4 runs, a ford cobra, an M3 2003, my fto with nitrous, an E55 AMG, and another 89 BMW 325is(with an M3 E36 engine inside), just to name a few... and he told me he can do low 12s 1/4 mile... do you guys think i stand a chance? oooh and i have another guy that is working in skyline r32 gtr(oppening the turbos and putting a bigger intercooler), and another guy with a rx7 tt(opening the turbos 2 and putting another intercooler)... its gonna be a tuff beating this guys

welcome!!!! hey you dont see too many FTO's here in the states!!!

so heres a pic of what is done right now! ill post more with rims and paint job...i choose black pearl!

um with 500 hp you should be able to run mid to high 11's with radials this is assuming your a good driver

Man 500 hp is too much.... i am alive and i dont know how... today i had a fucking acident going at 200 km/h... i dont know if should believe in god after this... u know a friend of mine that has 90(E30) BMW iS with a turbo(TOD5 ->+1.2 bar)...its a small turbo but he is running 16" with semi slick tyres...well im drunk now, so please excuse the long story, i merely escape death, not even a scratch...but ok... he has 600hp without nitros on the fucking wheels i saw his dino, real powerfull car! really bad luck the car just arrived in friday and on sunday it was supposed to be a race between him and the king in town, the car i mentioned above, the other BMW iS turbo(with a t66 by the way, and dry nitrous one fog), well he didnt even do 24 hours in mozambique! Well the roads here in mozabique aint completly flat, they have little bumps, we were cruising at 200 and climbing real fast, last time i checked was 200 km/h so one of the bumps broke the carter, and the oil split on the road and went to the back tyres, i was in the passenger seat, my friend lost control, we hit one tree(wich split in half) with front of the car, then we flip 180º and hit another tree with the back(in the air, believe or not, the second tree splited in 2 at the top), and then we hit 2 cars with the side of our car, the other car's were parked ,
NoW his car is scrap, he just wasted 8 months work and 15k USD man...ill post some pictures soon...its amazing both of us got out of the car alivebecause of that bar that stays in the engine i think, i think it absorved all the energy, because it broke in half...me and him no injuries ...but he split two right wheels in half, the trunk and the front is completly damaged, the suspension is gone, is gear went to floor, the drivers wheel got out of place hehehe youll see the pictures...well, hes got lots of money, and he loves BMW'S, hes gonna buy another 90(E30) and put this engine this engine in it lol ... well im really scared with my supra now... you see a t66 is alot more powerfull than TDO5...im scared as ****...his car is fucking fast...i mean im used to drive a FWD FTO with 200 HP, jumping to supra 500 hp RWD... i must train alot(i have my daddy car with 250 hp, its a ford falcon xr6(4.0L), its from australia, i train sometimes with it, he doenst let me drive it alot, he says its 2 powerfull for me, but he thinks my fto is 1.8 lol and if he imagines i have a car 2 times more powerfull than his lol, hes gonna kill me),

I dont want to have an accident like this again, what happened to me today was a fucking miracle... im fucking alive, and me and him were not using seatbelt... i mean the adrenaline of 600 hp car is such...i want to feel it again but also im afraid... i think my supra is too much for me lol , i think ill use it only for drag racing, but i wasted so much money on it... its like 25k now, and climbing cause ive just ordered 300 UK pounds short shift and a stage 4 racing clucth, 600 UK pounds... and ohhh and 200 UK Pounds Lighter Flywheel from http://www.funkyproduct.co.uk
My car is gonna be ready in 2 weeks...i was so ancious, and now im afraid something bad happens to me,
first i dont wanna die(so im gonna put those bars inside the car, in the trunk and in the engine, and a better suspension, 2 batteries and fire extinger)
second i dont wanna waste 25k in 5 secs...
And third i dont wanna waste 9 months work in 5 secs)
Man i didnt imagine 600hp was that much power, he hit 200 km/h in blink of an eye, and i felt that fast and furious feeling of the things going so fast, and only earing the wind and
1st gear roooooaaaar(he doenst have exshaust), and double dump valve(he has 2 by the way),
2nd gear rooooaarrr and double dump valve!!!
3rd gear roooooaaarr and shhhhhh double dump valve, 200km/h
4th gear rooooaaar-accident lol but he actually tryed to stop reducing to 3rd and hit hte brakes, but no use, the back of the car was already dancing lol... ill post some pictures of the BMW accident tomorrow and in 2 weeks the pictures of the supra... im a bit drunk, sorry for the way i write, cya soon... going to sleep now

And ohh im not afraid of the skyline R33 GTR, anymore, with a bigger intercooler and boosted standard turbos he only managed to win a E36 M3 with racing clutch and unichip by 2 car lengths, and only managed to leave him behind in the 4th gear... and the mazda with boosted turbos and bigger intercooler and chip, won a supra NA(standart only with exhasut and filter) by one car legth, baahhh, easy for me! Those 2 89-90 BMWS iS are the ones im worried now!

i respected rain because of aqua planing, cause last year i had my first accident in the highway in Portugal because the driver lost control in the rain, also escaped alive, we hit the wall in the middle of the highway, we were only going 100km/h and kepth flipping 360º until the car stopped and the other cars hit us, it was a chain accident...and now i respect oil, oil is so fucking dangerous... i dont wish my today experience to anyone...and now im starting to feel pain in some parts of my body, but im sure im ok, its the damage done by the G-Forces, baaah but only now when im trying to sleep, why not 6 hours ago after the accident lol!

And guys dont race in town, go rent a abandoned airstrip or a racetrack, race in highways, bridges , imagined if we hit people that were walking on the street, we were lucky nobody was in the street and we hit the tree not the wall of a university behind the trees, and nobody was in university on saturday 6 pm... they were going to be dead for sure, dont go fast in tight roads with cars on both sides with bumps and holes like my friend did today, becarefull with objects in the road going under your car, if they break the oil res, its game over for you, speacially if you have RWD car...

Anyways, how much are you running to the wheels right now? Are you 5 speed or auto? The stock w58 will crap out on you at around 400rwhp if you keep pushing it at that level. If you are auto, it'll crap out at around 350.
