Think again....
First picture is just scanned for proof...
Second pic is just an enlargement of the last paragraph.
Enjoy...

it may not be the coolest, but it boogies pretty good, and there is lotsa room to work on it. and it makes as much power as is reasonably useful on a FWD car. @ around 300 hp, I think anything on the street after that is just silly.

obviously it was fastest in the 1/8 when it has no power before 3000rpm gving it traction whereas the dohc cars are spinning all the way through the 1/8.

do you have any info on the car jc? I like looking at some of the higher hp properly built d series setups. did you read about that 380whp zc?

oh yeah, that 200 cubic centimiters of delta FURY!!!!!! it must really make for some *** KICKING TIRE SMOKING TORQUE.

I can roast the tires on any car.... 1.0 festiva, I roast it. 5.0 mustang... I roast that too. 3.0 liter taurus wagon.... ya... I roast it. That's why there are PRO drivers who get paid NOT to roast tires. Their job is to hook up and make things happen.

Big thumbs up for the D-Series!

How much do you think you would have invest on a reliable fast D-Series? I'm thinking a 200hp...

i know if you can properly mod a D-Series and tune the turbo correctly... it can reach way over 200hp for sure..... can someone confirm this too... coz i read on some other forum that this guy (not sure if he's from the states or somewhere else in canada)... but he'z called something Ninja... and he turn his D series into a monster engine.....and its way over 200whp (forgot the exact number)... i will try to search for it and post it here
