5th Gen Camaro SS vs 135i Ran a 5th gen this weekend, he said he had intake/tune/full exhaust/cam and was a 6MT. My car has ~410whp with tune/intake/downpipes/meth injection and weighs ~3600 (me + passenger).
I was really surprised at how much faster the cam make the ls3, up to this point I've only run intake/tune/exhaust Camaros and usually walk them. This was the closest race I've had in a long time, I usually can't find anyone close power-wise to me and blow them away or I'll get walked hard.

That exhaust note is perfect on his car as well, wish mine could sound like that

JB4 map 3 17 PSI and cooling mist meth kit with a CM10 nozzle. I'm on the list for RB turbos, but those won't be in for at least 6 months. Should be close to 500whp with them and a new intercooler. Thanks for the info on the single cam.

I don't think there have been many guys to break more than 470whp with the RB's although those are the best reworked turbo's on the market right now. Unless it's a glory run with 100% meth and 108 octane pushing 19psi. I like the rb's, but I'd get them not for any sort of peak power, but the power on the low end kicks in hard. Get yourself a cp too. you might find that the stock dv's leak after running those higher boost levels over stock. I got the the ETS cp and intercooler with duel 1/8th npt bungs for my cm10 nozzles. Only running a single on the meth for now. I couldn't be happier with ETS's stuff so give them a look.

Great runs! I really like those 35i's - they are to be reckoned with just with boltons and a tune. Can't wait to see with aftermarket single or twins. Any pics of your car or video outside the car doing a flyby??
