How to identify a Ricer!!

RE: How to identify a Ricer!!
HAHAHAHA...all of tht is true...I have a 1980 Dodge D50 that weighs around 3k. It is my run a round commuter that I replaced all the stock body panels and have redone the interior. It is pretty sharp but looks completely stock..It is stilla work in progress to complete. But, the motor is a 2.6L 4 cylinder. Anybody remeber the Chrysler Turismo? Same motor but with a turbocharger on it. 2.6 is a big 4cyl. I put a 38mm Outlaw Weber on it, a header with 2" pipe into a 24" resonator and a free flow magnlaflow muffler (really quiet, not raspy) and put in a lumpier cam with a hotter ignition system. Its a 5 speed with a close ratio stick shift and a centerforce clutch will go in soon. End result...Took a 130HP stock motor and punched it out to over 200HP (still need to confirm on dyno). The torgue was always great on these motors and at 130HP stock, it had 150 ft lbs. of torque (approx.) This stupid little truck hauls ***** and will give my 4.2 a run for its money off the line and up to 60. Past that its over cuz of the rear end. Fun truck. Whips stupid little ricer **** all day long. hahahahaha...Complete sleeper rig.

RE: How to identify a Ricer!!
oops...wasnt done writing...Point is 180 HP and a 185 FT lbs. of torque isnt all that bad for a civic weighing in barely at 3k. Thats why those little things are pretty quick with a few MODS. I dig the MODS, but only for the engine. Forget all the other stupid s**t. I have yet to a see a fully stock looking civic that is fast. Those are kinda cool cuz their sleepers.
