et streets + stock Ls1= BOG
Took our 2000 Ws6 M6 out to Ford VS GM day at our local track. The Ws6 runs consistent 13.3@108 on either F1s or Nittos completely stock except for a cutout and my 99 SS's old SPEC stage 3 carbon clutch. We figured maybe throwing on the SS's et streets could bet some 13.0s but we were wrong. We dumped the clutch from 3000-5000 we the car hooked then bogged big time, netting us 13.6-13.8s @ 103mph with 2.0-2.1 60s. We ranged the PSIs from 12-25 with real good burnouts. The last pass I aired the Ets Streets up to 20psi and dumped the clutch at 6000rpm, we got 2.060ft and 13.6@103mph. The WS6 just couldn't power its way out of the bog. It hooked great then fell on its face. Oh well time for the 12 bolt with 4.10s and N20.

Re: et streets + stock Ls1= BOG
Sorry, I ran ET Streets all last year - N/A, stock rear-end. Best 60' 1.73. It can be done.
Harlan's two-step will help bring up the RPM's and hold them. After you drop your clutch, do you lift the gas? Bet you do. I did. Without the 2-step I hold it at 5,000 rmp's, 2nd to bottom yellow, floor it and than pop the clutch. Not good on the rear-end, but it is still holding at 600-700+ launches <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
Good Luck

Re: et streets + stock Ls1= BOG
With a Manual, you have 3 choices:
The tire slips
The clutch slips
The car bogs
I like #1. It's easy on parts.
I guarantee you that you can spin ET Streets on a stock M6. Start upping the pressure, and up your launch RPM. If you have 32 psi in cold ET Streets, you should be able to spin them until you lift.
My M6 Camaro would seldom bog at 15psi. It was pretty much stock.
BTW - My friend was complaining about the same thing. It was a loose battery. WHen he launched, the battery would move and temporarily short out, causing the bog. Take a look.
