Some Playing around with My old Saturn ION Redline.
Supercharger Was removed and a Custom turbo kit was built (By OpenExcessMotors). This is stock internals with stock transmission on a 2004 Ion Redline 2.0 LSJ.
Stage 3 Ion Redline vs Audi Quattro
Just cruising up north. Ran into this puny turbo'd Quattro with Exhaust mods I believe. He said he had a "BIG" turbo. But this was just a short pull from 50-95mph. Sorry for my buddy's mouth...He has never viewed a hwy race before. I personally don't think its all that amazing. But it's one for the win column.
Stock Ion Redline to Stage 3 Ion Redline
I did a little side by side comparison of a video from my stock ion redline 20-60 acceleration time. Then I got stage 3... Had a really shitty tune and now I got her tuned by Ryan at Flatline Performance! Pulls harder than ever bro thanks!
