My boy has a 1991 Ford Probe. It is a 5spd and my Maxima is an Auto. We are going up to race a 1/4 sometime soon. Here is a break down:

PROBE:
Catback
Half-azzed cold air intake
5spd
Turbo running at 9psi
Some interior pieces taken out

MAXIMA:
Y-pipe
High Flow Cat/Catback
Auto
Drop Resistor mod
Hacked Intake
Subwoofer

This Probe cannot beat me...

Who is going to win?

 

Probe. Post time slips for your car and his.

 

Ooohhhh Noooo Not The Probe That Thing Is A Pos.

 

any decent turbo car at 9 psi, especially one that weighs less than the max, can beat it. And those ford 5 spds have pretty short gears, so my vote is with the probe, but you can try

 

I don't know since your an auto (a 5 sp may have a better chance) but who knows race and find out. I would definitaly take out your subs before you race.

 

What if he sucks and misses a shift?

 

You guys need to remember that this is probably the stock turbo in the car. Stock, I belive they have 145 hp and 190 ft/lbs of torque. That torque is at 3500rpm, so unless he's shifting right after 3500, he's not getting nearly 190ft/lbs.

At 9psi, he's probably around 190-200hp at the crank if he's really lucky and a really good tuner. I don't know much about these cars, so i'm just guessing with the hp at 9psi.

Black Maxima, put that airbox back together and I think you have a very good chance of beating the probe.

 

my friend has a prob on stick stock.......whipped me on a 96 auto max... i/y/e pulleys.... so a turbo at 9psi..... i dunno buddy good luck..... even though i love my max i would have to stick the the PROBE

 

Ok, looks like I'm a goner. My Max still looks better than this ghey-a$$ PROBE.

 

wut did ur 1 sub have to do with the racing moddz lmao

 

1st Gen Probe Gts usually run low 15's. (similar to 4th gens) But like most cars with a turbo stock, they respond well to mods. If the Probe is running well then I'd put my money on him. sorry. If you were 5-speed then it would be alot closer though...

 

I used to have a turbo probe and turbo MX6 and turbo 626 (all the same engine and transmission), my money is on the probe.

 

He's from conneticut. GO PROBE! It's got a Turbo d0000d, and he's got like 600lbs less than you! But it's a Ford, so maybe there's a recall they never made and you'll get the WIN!

 

What does being from CT have to do with anything? He only listed the sub because it adds weight to a car. So he was stating it so people know he has an extra 60lbs in the trunk.

 

A 4th gen GXE weighs about 100lbs LESS than a 91 probe GT does...

 

cool. What kind of times did you get from those?

 

Yes, thank you Zach, I was saying I have more wieght in the trunk.

HAHAHA Ford sucks...

Really? Do you have any proof? That right there would shut him up. HEHEHE Get the EF out of here with your red probe with a big slab of bondo on the side.
