Thread: Laser XE coming back

  1. #1

    Laser XE coming back

    Last months photos, have to wire the entire car yet, fire it up and start sorting things out.
    Plan on dialing it in with the old turbo before I order a new monster size unit. It will be good to be back. Warren

    Simon, I will be happy to get it back in the mid tens to start with, but the goal is a 9.xx second 8 valve, or as fast as I can go. I will have to remove at least 150 more lbs, and pick up about 75 HP to crack the nines. I think the horsepower is the easy part. Getting the weight off is much more expensive and time consuming at this point.
    Realistically, an 8 sec. 8valve would take a feather weight tube chassis Omni or something in the 1700 lbs range, this G body is just too big and heavy............I think? I want to keep this cars appearence and layout like a super stocker if that makes any sense.

    Thanks everyone for taking a look and all the kind words, Warren

    That is beautiful Warren. Your attention to detail and patience with it shows throughout! I can't think of many things better than a car that performs as well as it looks.

    The dirtiest spot in your engine bay is cleaner, and better looking than the cleanest, best looking spot on my entire car.

    Absolutely amazing.
