Default Stalled Z28 vs 2013 5.0 quick vid

Quick run with a 2013 5.0 from 45-75mph. I had a passenger he didn't. He turned at the upcoming red light so no more runs, figures. A couple days ago i pulled the same 2012 550i that beat me 2 cars to 120 before i had a stall/retune. This time i beat him 2+ cars from 60-125ish but i didn't have time to film it. Im pretty happy with the way my cars running for 310rwhp

Nice run, that was a close. Needed a longer run to see what would have happened!

Thanks guys i think its running pretty good for sure. When i saw the dyno go from 333 to 310 after the stall i was slightly worried, but pulling the BMW and running pretty much dead even with a 6speed 5.0 took my worries away lol. i wanna say its a solid 110 trapping car but i could be optimistic. Im pulling about 100lbs out of the car this weekend so thatll be fun. Pretty sure the 5.0 was stock, sounded it

I think the car should do 110+ no problem. Probably 112ish

thats because youre dynoing the car unlocked. It didnt actually lose that power.

Oh okay that makes sense It was definitely unlocked. is it worth it to lock the converter? some people have told me it pulls you out of powerband and the slip from an unlocked converter keeps you in powerband.
It also doesnt seem very good on the transmission

on the dyno, yes, lock the converter. On the street dont lock the converter. Sometimes at the top of third gear there is benefit in locking it to grab more mph.
