Hey guys Im a mountain road guy and am going with the LS1 swap nexxxt month. Im really excited, because my 270 WHP SR20 is causing me problems. Anyway, can anyone here with a LS1'd S13 tell me how their car is on the twistys? Im nervous about maybe too much torque and spinning out? I know this sounds bitch but my fucking car is clean and Ive never had a V8 in anything and the SR doesnt have nearly the throttle response or torque of the LS1 (im told and imagine). I just want to hear from some of the people with this swap and how the car behaves in the mountains. I really dont want to back my car off a cliff, but, too late! Im going with the swap anyhow. Can anyone give me some advice from experience? Oh ya i only got 225s on 17s in the rear.
