Default 11's finally!!!!!!!!!

I am now a firm believer in the school of airflow.

I recently added a single outlet 3" Flowmaster 40 series and a cutout to my car. Sounded great but I didnt expect much. How much does a cam depend on exhaust anyways....

Boy was I stupid. I went from a 12.07@112 with stock catback to a 11.999@113 with the Flow. Yeah I am in the 11's but still not what I expected out of the car when I got the cam.

So then I decide to open the cutout. I never liked them and always found them to be obnoxious, but once again I am proved wrong.

1.63 60' and.............................11.72@............ .....................................
116

I have heard of a tenth or two but 3 full tenths and 4 MPH total. WOW.

I think everyone else had good days too.

Later, Stu

Thanks man....I couldnt believe the cutout made that big a difference either.

I was beginning to think noone on this board gave a poo about 11's anymore <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> I guess it takes tens or better to impress on the #1 LS1 board in the land. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Wow, great comparison!!!

Did you do anything to the car between passes?

Didnt do anything to the car but open the cutout. Temp was within 3 degrees and barometer was falling....31 to 30

11.99 slip::::11.72 slip
60---1.70-----1.63
330--4.93-----4.79
1/8--7.61-----7.47
MPH--89.92----91.72
1000-Timer was broken. Someone hit the box.
1/4--11.999---11.724
MPH--113.81---116.10

I think some of it had to do with the 60' but I cant argue with the MPH.

Like I said I guess the cam wants to breathe a little better <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Gettin me an LS6 intake and ported TB and Flowmaster collector mod then lose some weight and maybe I can get somewhere near Jason99TA. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Yeah Right <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

Looks like the car ran stronger all the way down the track... Opening the cutout could also have the effect of leaning you out a bit too... But I think Flowmaster mufflers are better than stock not near the best for performance.
