Good kill man, 5 speeds are always faster off the start, i have a 2.5l v6 cougar, ATX, and my neighbor has an 4cylinder 2.0 cougar, both 99's.. we raced off a dead start, in the start he wins but in like 2 seconds i get in front, (thank you K&N intake) but when we start at 60 and haul, i smoke his ass everytime.. lol

I wouldn't advise dumping the clutch anytime, next time rev to like 3 grand. Nice kill though!

I remember punching out an Alero with my old 5-speed Saturn station wagon. Dude was so confused

CodyTRX replied 1 month, 2 weeks ago
Considering your car is a manual you lose a lot less WHP than the Alero would. Your probably more evenly matched than what you think you are in terms of TRUE horsepower you can actually use. Weight is probably another factor. Your around 2900lbs plus your weight. The Alero probably doesn't weight THAT much more than your Cougar but I'm sure it does a little bit. Anyhow, I'm not surprised..
