Dragon wagon Gearz

[SILVER_BULLET]

You have a point there lol

Instead of doing all the doughnuts he should have headed for the track to see what it does in the 1/4. In earlier episodes he claimed it would run with Camaro's etc. Be nice to see if he got anywhere close.

Run with Camaros until THEY spent 20gs upgrading their cars!

man.......that thing needs some heads and tails!

love how it came out

I think gearz needs to get introduced to retro shop asap

Weird I just looked back at a thread I made about it, its been one week shy of a year since the episodes first aired

Ya he goofed up and did everything without a tuner for the 11 which is why he had to wait lol

Stock camaro yes(well ss and v6, not zl1). Lightly modded, no.

Edit: But would probably run low-mid 12s depending on the tires. Hennessey did 13.1 in a quad cab with magnacharger

Not even 20gs lol. Just a intake, tune, exhaust ss would probably beat the dragon wagon

Yes, but I'm talking spending equal money on both.

Not to call you out on my second post. But a ss camaro is what like 30000 dollars. And a base express is 21000 before rebates. Thats where our modding compares to what they just pay for the car. So we have like 10000 dollars to spend just to make it even on cost. I think that is why he did the dragon wagon. But yah stacy david has gotten old. And old fast. Hes not like horsepower and all the other Saturday morning shows. Or graveyard carz. Sorry to bring a old thread up.

Seeing that the supercharger was probably 6-7g's uninstalled it puts a 21,000 dollar truck up near that number. Now add full air ride, wheels tires Baer brakes, and all the other crap... He had 20g's in that truck and perhaps more with labor. Figure labor at 100 per hour and it adds up fast.

Yah I forgot about the air ride and baer brakes. Its been a while since I seen that. But you can pick up a ripp supercharger kit bow for like 4500 bucks with forums disounts. But with air ride and baer brakes. Do kinda kill it for me. Take those away and in a straight line the ram should be faster than a camaro ss with supercharging. Gear swap. Stall converter. And some custom tuning. Do all this yourself and should be around the cost of a ss. 4500 for ripp supercharger, 550 edge 2800 stall, gear swap now you can get a 4.10 kit for 450 bucks comes with everything. And some custom tuning maybe 200 dollars. So give or take 6000 grand. Not to shavvy really. For straight line performance

But it would be nice to see a ram spank the crap out of a ss
