690 West
Posted On 01/18/2008 20:51:13 by JasonL666
Okay, so my Tibby is on EBay and it ends Saturday the 19th. Apparently this is the wrong time of Year to sell a tastefully modded sleeper because I only received about 610 hits and 15 Bids and It's Friday Evening. Luckily, I only had to pay $1 to list the car as a promo. The exhaust (headers, down-pipe, and Cheater Cat) go on tomorrow and My strut bar and ignition wires and box, and Throttle Body should be here Next week, so As soon as I get a couple days of above 40 degree temps, a friend and I will be taking the Tib out to 690 West and getting another top-speed on Video this time. It will be posted here and on youtube. Last time we made it to 147mph until the rev limiter kicked in. With the Lightweight and Larger flywheel, and the ignition upgrades, I should be able to break 150mph. May not seem like alot to alot of people, But most cars have a governor or an electronic speed control, so they typically don't get over 120mph. The only time I have ever gone faster was in my friend's '67 Camaro. Anyway, wish me luck and hope that in a few weeks, weather permitting, I finally break 150 with a Hyundai Tiburon Naturally aspirated. ~Jason

I only listed it because it was A promo on EBay and it cost me $1.00. I will try to hold out until next year for the New Tiburon, the one I recently put in my gallery. I got the headers, down pipe and fake converter put on Saturday and I picked the car up Yesterday. It sounds pretty aggressive now. I still need to get the car remapped and the ignition control module in. The only other car I would be interested in if I wasn't getting another Tiburon would have to be an Audi RS6 Twin turbo.

What do you plan on getting after you sell the Tiburon?
