S/C C4 Vette VS TonytheTiger 1st Turbo v6 Camry

[Toysrme]

Centerfugally blown C4 Vette
VS
*Completely* built (around 15-20usd grand) '94 v6 1mz-fe (still 3.0L boosting on 10.2:1 CR!) Camry. GT40/88 @ 12psi (392fwhp - 501bhp) That's not even full boost!?, 4500rpm stall T/C, Fully IPT built transmission.


Everything on the car changed, everything about it custom (Tony & his brother own a Custom performance shop in Canada.) The Biggest, Baddest Camry/ES/Windom on the planet.

I also have a natural gear-based boost control. This friggin' big GT40R doesn't give me full boost on 1st gear...LOL I only get 12-14 psi at 1st gear. When 2nd gear hits, the car is travelling fast enough so the full 20-22 PSI can come in and my car still bites traction. On the video, you can see that I have a power deficit at first gear (the vette pulls clean even when both of us caught traction), but when my 2nd gear came, I had full power and it manage to pull it back. And the rest of the gears was self explanatory.

Runs are 0-130mph & 0-124mph.
For anyone wondering, The weight should be within a hundred pounds, or so. The Aero cd is the same, with the vette having a smaller frontal section (around 19.4^2ft VS 22.7^2ft)

If anyone has ever doubted me that until you hit *insane* power levels - FWD = RWD *when* given the same supporting mods (LSD/differential geometry, suspension geometry). This is a great example of that!

That is the baddest Camry I have ever seen. Tony is the Tiger...... This is a great example of high compression, high boost.... Absolutely AWESOME!

20 grand in a camry that year, not cool, beating a vette however, cool!

The ULTIMATE insult. Beaten by a camry. I love it.

that's impressive, its just that if you put 20k into the vette, the story would be different, but a very good achievement.

Bump update. The beast runs 22psi on that GT40/88.:bigeyes:

What you guys complaining about the moeny don't realize. Tony & his brother are not enthusiasts. They ARE professionals! They own/run a performance shop in Canada.
He probably only has 9-10,000 in parts if I were guessing. (Probably 15K in parts if you added up old parts from the older setups that got ditched/sold) Which. Is in line with what some of you 2jz-ge & uz-fe guys pay for FI! If you had to pay people to do what they've done to that car. Yikes!!! You could easily rack up 20-25grand with all the parts swapping & custom work over the last few years.

The entire transaxle & controls for it alone are worth more than my '93 ES 300, and my civic... :wtf:

The scaryest things about this car:
*The effective compression ratio right now peaks almost 23:1, the effective compression ratio on pump gas, without WI is 18-20:1.
The guy can easily burn diesel fuel if he wants too; aslong as he has the toe in the gas pedal!?
*That's the highway cruiser, not the race car!?
