woah this was 2 years ago this is like the 3rd time watching this haha i cant wait

Because of you now no one will line up next to my 02 Regal LS it has a turbo and when I first built it people would race now they laugh and say no way.

Really amped but are you trolling sir or serious ?

Why would I troll my own video? Lol

I had a truck start to beat me in my impreza, he backed off but I would still hand a win to him, I wish he would of stopped and talked, it was really cool.

It’s because those civics weigh like 30 pounds😂😂😂. My brother has one that previously ran a 9.5 @150 but is now selling the shell and swapping it into a mid engine Toyota mr2

Michael Potts ding ding ding! This man knows what he's talking about.

fucking thankyou

I own one of these fast looking cars, a '81 Camaro Z28, and I know its not fast (not yet anyways) it came stock with 175hp, buts thats not why I bought the car. I love the look and I loved driving it, even through the summer in texas with no AC I still drove it, not everyone that drives a "fast looking car" are just egocentrics looking for attention.

I really enjoyed this aahaha Apparently you're not allowed anything nice looking unless it has 1000hp. fk what people think.

Michael Potts I am inspired. Will tune my car (2005 Toyota Corolla) as soon as I get the cash to something around 650-700HP. And yes, I am crazy 😂

I chuckled at that part to. 😂😂

So where you at I gotta a mustang I'll run ya you made some nice power there

***** yea try 422hp 444torque 535 crank with c6automatic 3500 stall on 93 pump gas 12psi

***** nope old school 90 mustang convertible looks like a six banger till you hear it sleeper car no badges push rod motor stock block 4 lug axles

***** Please don't misunderstand me. I'm not trying to say mustangs are slow. They are excellent at going fast in a straight line and of all the stock cars mustangs make the best noise hands down, but when they try to turn physics can be a bitch. My original argument was that mustangs are too heavy and not very good at Thomas' idea of "performing". Which when you think about it why is braking, cornering and doughnuts his three main factors of performance? Just for the record most mustangs are excellent at doughnuts. Lighter cars are better at acceleration and cornering. What is the most commonly suped up mustang? A fox body. The lightest mustang body style. As an example of why more weight slows you down, I was able to outrun a convertible late model mustang in a gutted 91 crx with a bone stock motor. Yes a convertible is heavier than normal and it was probably the slowest model the guy could buy. Even though it had a lot more HP than me that doesn't change the fact that a mustang got outrun by a bone stock crx. yes my car is a POS, no I don't think its fast, its still fun to drive, especially on curvy roads. Sorry if my posts get a little long, its hard to sum up my rebuttal in one or two sentences. Its all in good spirit.

***** yea I got a few on here no racing yet been working on it for going on 6 years now little by little

hey i've been rewatching your vids for some time and it seems that alotta ppl want to be right and be "the expert" but with your commentaries they seem to help back up your logic i've just recently become drunk on the idea of having a sleeper but with all the cars i've seen seems like the regal is the only perfect car to me but i'm curious if you know of any other cars or if you have any other ideas on a good sleeper but then again they don't seem to make cars like this anymore its a bit saddening but i would like to hear alotta feedback from you i've got some basic knowledge of cars i'm no pro at this but i'm wanting to get a better understanding of what makes a car a seriously good sleeper everyone has an opinion i'm curious about yours.

nice job on the vid as u can see I was a gtp owner a few years ago also had shos about 25 mustangs and a 97 cobra and yeah the gtp was fun with bolt on from zzp but the trans in the gtp was kinda weak that was my only problem

It's fine, they'll just end up getting upset at themselves when losing to a car that "looks slow" and it's funny when they do get mad. Most of those guys are also the guys that hate on imports and call them ricers but with that light body, a turbo just makes it fast as hell. Maybe you should make a video on Ricers etc because most people don't even know what a ricer is and call everything from Asia a ricer. There is a huge difference between a ricer and a rice rocket. I'm getting off topic of the whole sleeper deal but yeah good video.

HipinyourHop ok your a dumb ass ... the point of a sleeper is to look stock but whoop custom cars ass's ....... a sleeper is not to customize its looks ... its to make it fast and make people go WTF when they get passed when there foots in the floor and its a sedan or granny car passing you .... yeah I agrea with a car is a work of art and yeah customize it how ever you feel ... so would I .... but not a sleeper ....

Correct me if im wrong but cars that are unique are usually not stolen. Since if somebody steals a mustang cobra it would be more noticeable than a car like a buick regal since you dont see a cobra everyday but a common car like a buick would fly under the radar and not attract attention.

So what you are telling me is a car like a customized Ferrari Enzio has a less chance of being stolen than a Buick? Car thieves do not want to risk their lives and serve jail time to steal a cheap car because the costs will out weigh the benefits. What a thief will do is they will steal a car and either sell the car as whole or in parts to an overseas buyer.

dunkingkid7 Dude, that doesnt make any sense. It doesnt matter what kind of mustang it is, if someone steals your car the cops will be looking for a mustang. Doesnt matter if its a v6 or cobra they all look about the same, and 90% of people can't tell the difference anyways. Hell, i would rather steal the most expensive mustang on the market, cause you're just gonna blend into the sea of other mustangs on the road. Steal a Ferrari, and you're not exactly blending into anything.. except maybe your jail cell trying to hide from 'bubba'. And how many buick regals do you see on the road compared to mustangs? You'll probably find a buick regal for every cobra, if that.

A sleeper is the exact opposite of a ricer

Some of the most stolen cars are honda's and toyota's because they blend in better than a lambo. Like think about it if you steal a lambo more people are likely to see it unlike a camry which nobody would blink one eye at it. If your car is unique it is less likely to be stolen because it can be identified easier.

DirtyDiesel100 yea modified own car

The Father not any more. Everyone is taking them to a junk yard .

You'd love australia more

Sorry, but I can't agree that a car enthusiast must love all cars regardless of anything. I am a car enthusiast, have built a few sleepers that were economical and a load of fun to drive, but I do not like Yugos, a whole bunch of Fiat's, early model Kia's and Hyundais (later years much better, I believe), etc, etc. That doesn't mean I'm not a car enthusiast. By your reasoning, the only guy who would be enthusiastic about women would be the one who likes all women, regardless. Sorry, does not compute.

CaptainDiegoAlatriste by saying your a "car" enthusiast you are by definition an enthusiast of all cars....it would have been better for him to just say he was a "sleeper" enthusiast because that's what he is. He obviously has a problem with people who can expense alot nicer car than what he can and you can here it in his condescending tone and negative aspect of others who love "loud" cars. From a professional standpoint he has an enormous lack of self confidence and shows a good amount of childish ego like the ones he races.

Joe Sylvester If one must be an enthusiast of all cars in order to be a car enthusiast, then there are literally hundreds of thousands of people who belong to car clubs for specific vehicles, e.g., Vettes, Crown Vics, whatever, who are not car enthusiasts, because their enthusiasm is primarily or exclusively for one brand or model of car. You appear to be splitting hairs in order to find a toehold for criticism of the video maker, whose attitude you clearly don't like. That is your right to your opinion, but taking a narrow definition of what a car enthusiast must be enthused about does not support your argument, it just reflects your opinion of the video maker. And just as people have a right to adopt a snobbish attitude because they can afford an expensive car, he has a right to adopt an attitude that he can get more out of a car with less investment, thus leaving him more money for other things of his choosing. When you analyze him as having an enormous lack of self confidence and that he shows a good amount of childish ego, you state that that you are saying that from a professional viewpoint. Out of curiosity, what profession are you qualified to practice, and how does that profession qualify you to judge his pride in his ability to wring more out of a car for less, in a manner contrary to majority opinions? And why wouldn't a person who either drives a car that most people can't afford, or who has an inflated idea about their car's performance, be just as guilty of such a lack of self confidence, such that they would also be exhibiting childish ego? Indeed, what evidence do you have that you yoursel are not guilty of the very same things, given that you object so strongly to what he has objectively accomplished, regardless of his attitude. He does take cheap affordable cars and does make them go a lot faster than a lot of more expensive cars. Where is the maturity in driving a more expensive car for appearances, that cannot perform the way someone tries to convince others it can. I am referring to people who put race tires, hood pins, 3" exhaust systems, performance parts decals, etc., all over their $60,000 car that turns 15's at the strip. What is your professional opinion of someone who rolls like that, if you qualify to give a professional opinion? Absent true verifiable professional qualifications for making such an evaluation, you appear as one who tries to lend false authority to what is no more or less than your opinion of this guy and his activities. And I'm sure that, unlike you, he loses zero sleep over what other people think of his "racing" program. His satisfaction is derived from the money he has saved matched against the numbers that flash on the board at the end of a run. Why do you care that he derives a childish satisfaction from kicking butt on people with expensive slow cars, if in fact it is childish satisfaction?

Joe Sylvester I am a car enthusiast. I do not love all cars regardless of anything. Therefore, I have just done what you said I cannot do, yet I did it. You may want to pass a new universal law that only people who love all cars regardless may call themselves car enthusiasts, but you have not done so and will not be able to do so. People who do not love all cars regardless, but who do like a lot of different cars, call themselves car enthusiasts as a shorthand, to indicate that they like at least one type of car, without qualifying which one it is, or they are indicating that they like several different types of cars, but not necessarily all cars. After all, it would be rather dysfunctional to have to specify that I am a "pre-1989 Ford Thunderbird/Ford Crown Vic (especially 92-97) enthusiast/Mercury Grand Marquis (especially 92-97)/early fifties Mercury and Ford/55 and 57 Chevy/Mk II and E Jag (especially 2+2)/58 Pontiac convertibles with a V8 and dual quad carbs/Mustangs from the sixties, the Boss 302, Fox bodies, ...." etc, etc... Nor do I want to have to specify the exceptions to the cars that I like. I am just a "car enthusiast" with likes and dislikes, some strong, some not so strong, but who does not like just one type of car, nor do I like all types of cars. Who are you to say that I can't call myself a car enthusiast? I am glad that there are people like you who have love for Yugos, Tatras, Skodas, and a whole host of other cars I find next to useless, but that doesn't make you more of a car enthusiast, or a better car enthusiast, or the only true car enthusiast. You can believe that if you want to, but you would be wrong, just like you could make left turns on red, but you'd be wrong. Obviously, this guy and his success with inexpensive fast cars has gotten under your skin, but trying to fault him for saying he is a car enthusiast comes off as just a petty attempt to discredit what he has accomplished. You may not like what he has accomplished, but it doesn't change the fact that he has accomplished it, and that he is a car enthusiast with preferences, one of them being to go fast without spending all his money doing so.

CaptainDiegoAlatriste well apparently someone has lost sleep and a tremendous loss of time for something so trivial. Maybe if they spent more time in a book than listening to others opinions they might know I little more. Guess he's not the only one with confidence issues. All statements made by me are facts and you can look them up on your own since you have so much free time to troll about. Oh and small amount of advice that backwards hats do not make your car go faster.....or make you look cool.

He makes a good point though. Car enthusiasts are a little different today than they once were. Car enthusiast back in the day loved their car and what they could do with it. They talked smack, but it was all in good fun and at the end of the day they all could rely on each other. Now it is just about loud obnoxious my car is better than yours and you can suck a big one type mentality. I am sure there are still good enthusiast groups out there, but there are so many others that muck it up now.

1987slim But cars back then were even louder and more obnoxious and emitted noxious fumes/odors. The difference now is that we have more imports that have a different number of cylinders, thus making a different type of sound. People are polarized on whether they like this different sound coming from these imports, whether they are BMW V8/V10s or 4/6 cylinder engines. There's also a relatively new camp/generation with a "green" mentality. This means more conflict. I think it is more diverse now, and that is an improvement.

Talking about the people not the cars.

1987slim People made the cars.

1987slim exactly, his point is 100% valid, I see it every day.

See I think you are kind of obnoxious if you have a loud exhaust because one of the only reasons your doing it has to be because you want to be cool in your mind, You want attention. If that's not the case then why do some people pull up to an intersection and while at a stop feel the need to rev their engine.You are clearly saying to others that you are or think you're dominant.

@@danwatne4481 I mean, if you're revving your car at stop lights. You're not only begging for attention, but a jackass. As for my car, yeah it's loud. Because I like it. When I go through a tunnel at 1 a.m with no one around, I'll make noise, cause it sounds cool.

alot of people don't know the Galant VR4 had a Rally car heritage. its 4WD and has 4Wsteer.

The Merc wasnt an amg but unless the camaro was the v6 it should have had more like 405-415

Jonathan Clarke If that Camaro was stock there is no way it would make 415.

Noshow74 I would've expected it to at least be in the 380s. Regardless, a couple bolt ons to any of the SS should easily push it into the 400 range. Still pretty condescending in the video but it's understandable that it's a class project and he's explaining it to complete dumbasses basically.

The dyno measures wheel horse power, all the manufacturers put up engine horse powers. We measured for example on an older Mercedes SV12 480hp on the crank, then put the engine into the car, hocked it up to it's automatic transmission and then the diff, When put it to onto the Dyno we got 372hp on the wheels, we lost 20% due gear box and diff. A pro tuner ones told me that a loss between 8% to 13% is actually low. The 20% is actually quite normal. Also, FWD cars with +250hp are crap in corners and accelerating but when already going it doesn't really matter when doing flying starts. You have to mod heavy the gearbox, clutch, diff as well, then, you need also to mod the breaks. The power to weight ratio is also important; except you own a GTR, they throw the rule bock away and did build something worth calling Godzilla.

Orku5 I know what the dyno measures. I know what manufacturers advertise. 480 at the crank and 372 at the wheels is a ridiculous loss. My SRT8 charger makes 470 stock at the crank and puts up 417 SAE corrected at the wheels.

A Buick with all options, low insurance and in the end can accelerate as fast as most $80000 cars. So who made the bad decision.

+Nick Bloebaum if money is an issue I guess Buick owner, personally I'd rather just have a nice looking fast car.

@@jamesruot4762 Isnt that the point of a sleeper? lol

@@jamesruot4762 uh..... bruh.... a sleeper is a car that has a modified engine but still looks stock... a factory sleeper is a sleeper that is already fast from factory, but a sleeper is just another everyday car on the outside but the engine packs a bunch of horsepower ready to make sportscar owners day bad

corey mink yeah but your 1970's 429 would loose to an mx-5 in the twistys

Classy, keep up that mustang owner appearance. Go Buick GS & GN

DoomsdayMelody91 actually old stangs can handle pretty well with minor tweaking. gt 350s were built for road course and it doesn't take much to make any 60s mustang handle the same paired with some hp and it would wipe the floor with your mazda just saying

Erik Carera But you see, if I spent the same amount of money on an mx-5 and threw... say a supercharger kit into it, it would still win. You can argue modified cars all you want but the fact of the matter is I don't recommend drag racing with a miata because it won't win unless heavily modified. And I don't recommend taking a mustang down a canyon road while trying to race a lighter more nimble car, because well Mustangs are heavy (depending on year I realize) and they do not have handling as a focus. I am not trying to bash the mustang, I like them quite a lot. But I think that the mx-5 is a better sports car in general, while the mustang is more practical in day to day living.

even better are GMs v8 fwd cars. if i remeber correctly they were, bonneville, grand prix, impala, lacerne (or however you spell that buick).

Lucerne, DTS, late-model Monte Carlo SS.

Josh Mason wasnt the FWD monte carlo ss only supercharged v6

no they have the Buick park ultra the Bonneville ssei and the gtp and a Buick Regal GS and a Buick Riviera Supercharged Coupe thought are all the 3800 taht ware supercharged 1996 or new has the series 2 motor and thats what u want alot of after market parts out the the s1 dont have no after market part and if u want to make any hp and tq nothing is really out there u have to use all junk yard part like headers u can build a exhaust but u cant tune it for shit and there super chargers arnt as good either compared to the m90

I had a buddy who modified his 03' GTP and it was INSANELY FAST compared to most sports cars of the time. I still remember the distinctly LOUD whine of the Supercharger. GREAT generation of sedans

+John Yang you mean 200 hp to 374?

+Exata1337 fyi the dyno measures hp on wheels? 374 is probably over 500

Marg87 yea but then the measured starting point of 200 would be closer to 300 aswell right? either way, big difference from 374 to 1000 xD

🚗💨 🚓🚓🚓 😎

***** why not?

no ricers can be sleepers. Sleepers are cars that don't look fast but actually are. I've seen a pickup run an 8.4 1/4mile. That's a sleeper for you. He could also have very well been a ricer.

Leroy Butts theres no way a pickup will run 8.4 and still resemble a stock car. LOL

+marc martens "oppessite"?

Mathias Braun lol suck at english

He doesn't even spend tht much on modifying the car, why buy an expensive car which is slower, than buying an ugly car which is faster?

Why spend all sorts of money on a small sports car when you can have a Buick Regal GS and drive fast in style. I'd take one if there was one in decent shape around still. Great engines.

thats my point i wouldn't spend loads of money on a small sports car prob about half of what that extremely ugly boat is worth.

DropThemBeats personal preference. I'd much rather have a car with a decent amount of power that I actually like than a fugly boat that's loaded with whp. Lets take the Focus ST for example. I'm in love with that car; I drove one a few months ago and had such a blast. But it's not the fastest car out there (obviously). I love the looks of it and would just enjoy driving it around. Now jump to an AMG. I'm not really a fan of Benz, I don't enjoy their looks and I wouldn't really want one. Given the choice between an ST and a much faster AMG, I'm gonna go with an ST because I would enjoy it more. In the end it's about what you find enjoyment in. I would rather have one of those Mustangs that he destroyed over his Regal any day.

You obviously missed the point by a long shot. It isn't about taking corners, or having an attractive car. It's about people who buy cars either intended or designed with performance in mind against cars meant primarily for comfort in daily commuting. Also, I doubt he's dumping "fortunes" into making some of those cars go quick. His Z28 and SHO were NA and left that way until he got his Regal with the SC, and anyone who knows FI knows that it doesn't take much to "up" the power significantly without breaking the bank. It's very common to see cars that are performance oriented or cars with performance oriented modifications. But to see an ugly looking boat with some capabilities really is to be unique and asserts to the point the video maker is trying to make, which is defining a SLEEPER.

Me too man... too bad most people these days call you a ricer right away...

Yeah, so true.

that's because your insecure and care about how others view you. a person with a sleeper is humble and not trying to prove anything to anybody because they are comfortable with themselves.

+nick duffy What a load of rubbish, i couldn't care less what people think of me or what i drive, & if you say people with sleeper have nothing to prove, then why have a fast car?, isn't that to prove you're faster than the next guy? lol
