Alot depends on driver,DA,track.The car has the potential to go 11's in good air. I would shoot for 12.6 if it's your first time out with the car. Goodluck

I went 12.2@116 this past weekend and its stock....I think I can get into the 11's or very close. I'd say its all in your launch and the track conditions. All things being in your favor I think you've got an 11 second ride.

But how come I see people dynoing at 345, and then I see another stock dynoing 385?? Thats a big difference, and I know it can be cause of weather, ect. ect. but damn thats a big jump, stock to stock

I have yet to see anyone dyno 385 stock. Highest I have seen is in the LOW 360s. Most of the people that have dyno'd 385 have some sort of intake and a tune. Good luck with your Z, its a beast!

Probably the difference between horsepower is a high reading dyno vs a low reading dyno. All dynos read differently.

That's what SAE is for, it corrects the numbers so they are all compared to the same weather/humidity, etc. STD is what you're making that exact night in those exact weather conditions. The only big difference in power is when you go from a dynojet to a mustang dyno, the mustang dyno shows signficantly less.

Thats true but SAE still doesnt correct for everything like it should IMO. Because with SAE you car should dyno the same weather its 60 degs or 110 degs outside...but I can tell you it won't. I have noticed when dyno tuning cars that the hotter it is the bigger difference between STD and SAE numbers. And the last thing is how well the dyno is calibrated, there is 100's of little tricks people can do with the dyno calibration to show a few more hp on every pull.

(I meant the differnce between SAE and Uncorrected I never look at STD I just go by SAE)

The dyno is a tool, nothing more. Anyone that uses a dyno to compare or determine performance is a tool.

my 01 zo6 dynoed at 348 to the wheels untuned (Long tubes, high flow cats, borla straight pipes, vararam). 368 tuned. I ran with just that stuff on it and untuned and got barely in the 11's 1 time the first night I took it to the track.

Typically they dyno at about 345-355 from what I've seen. Very constant.

Track numbers, all in the driver. Well Ranger ran 11.818 @ 117.26 stock on 1.78 60 foot. The 60 foot time is the key because the c5 z is a stock 11 second car with the right driver.

Had the car dyno'd this weekend at Corvettes of Carlisle. They had a portable dynojet on hand. Car dyno'd 350hp and 340tq SAE corrected. We'll see if she busts 11s soon.
