hey guys, so last night on my way home from dinner a cute nissan maxima attempted to race me. For the first time ever I floored the gas, and I was shocked, I literally blew him away when I was reaching 85-90 mph.

I know that hes in a pos, but still that is a decently quick car. anyway i've never tried to speed up like that before and after doing this one time I think I'm hooked.

Are there some ways I can increase my hp so can get more out of this?

P.S. please DO NOT do what I did, it was a stupid lack of judgement that could have gotten myself or someone else seriously injured or even killed. Once again DO NOT do as I did.

If you really wanna race in an H2 you can. It is unique and would be cool but expect to drop some dough. First ditch the interior. ALL of it from the front seats back. You have a 6.0 so either supercharge it or ditch it for the 6.2/6l80e and supercharge the 6.2 or do a dmax/allison swap and build up that. Keep 4wd it will help with launches you can get some good traction

+1 take it from someone who liked to drive there hummer fast its not worth it. if you wanna go fast. go pick up one of these.

Funny you should mention that . . .

I was in Santa Clarita not too long ago and saw an Avalanche trying to go balls-out from a signal. Sure looked like the same truck I saw pictures of here . . .

I was in my Kia so you wouldn't have reconized me.

what time? probably was me, last time i went balls out from a signal was late at night with my friend when we put his superchips tuner on mine and put it in eco mode makes a great difference in fuel economy but makes for horrible acceleration lol

You put the Superchip in upside down! Flip it over to get the acceleration over fuel consumpsion. For fuel mileage AND acceleration you need a throttle body spacer too.

with all that space in that hatch, a prius would make a hell of a rear-engine sleeper.

another project for when I become insanely rich.

let's see, what rear engine car is AWD and has a reasonably compact drivetrain?
