Performance/Numbers Needed!!
I would like to know my lebaron's 0-60 time (average and minimum, if possible), top speed, drag times, horsepower, etc.
dude it's a 94 chrysler...who cares....drag times...give your head a shake....horsepower...it's a grocery getter at best...give it to your lovely girlfriend and get a real car...sorry
1985 Chrysler LeBaron GTS Turbo 8.1 16.2
1987 Chrysler LeBaron 8.8 16.8
1987 Chrysler LeBaron Convertible 11.3 18.2
1990 Chrysler LeBaron GTC 7.2 15.8
Closest I could find. First number is your 0-60 and your second numberis 1/4 mile.
You can make decent power if you know what to do.
First off get rid of that crappy ass a604 4 speed automatic and put an a543 5 speed in it.
Next switch your computer over to a 5 speed.
Then a 2.5 exhaust all the way back, take intake and port it by atleast taking the big bump in the center out and stick a Cold Air intake
on it (custom make it, its easy).
From there play with your ignition timing.
A little bit more money and you should yank your head for a little porting, shave them off a little bit and run a bit higher compression.
THen you can send your cams to crower for an aggressive regrind.
I know a lot of guys you with a 24v 3.0 motor and a standalone set up like megasquirt or doing DOHC with a diamante motor.
These mods make your car an easy high 14 sec (grocery getter).
I know a couple people who have put an m90 supercharger on the 3.0 and blow people away with the amount of power.
Then there is a guy that has a custom turbo kit on his 3.0. He takes salvage yard motors and tunes them out with a turbo and runs 11
second passes easy.
If you can fabricate or even have basic mechanical skills you can get a lot out of these motors
Q
One of my professors said he had a late 80 chrysler lebaron gts turbo and he said he got it up to 145 and it wasnt even close to hitting the red-line... this seems pretty ridiculous and he is kind of a B.S.er so I was wondering, is that possible?
