Default CTS-V vs 5.0

Cruising down the freeway had a Black V2 pass me got up there to see if he would play and he did. We went from a 80 roll (me in 4th should of started in 3rd) to about 150 he got the jump pulled a car on me. I was able to pull back dead even untill i had to shift into 5th the clutch said no Was able to pull over and talk to the guy real stand up guy. He thought i was stock untill i pulled back on him said he was impressed. Gotta say i love the V2 should of bought one over the 392 really strong cars with the auto. Maybe someone knows him he is from Shreveport,La his name is Joe.



His mods 2.50 metco pulley and East texas performance tune.

My mods are in my sig.

Nice. Wouldn't have seen that coming. 5.bro must trap pretty well.

80 roll? Why not 100?

Good run. They normally trap about 115 stockish.

I have to agree with this. Seems a lot of the manual 5.0 \ Boss owners lost their trans out here. I'd go this route at a minimum.

Yeah I seen the times for them. With the mods he had they trap around 120 mph. Witch is nice for a heavy car. I do plan on getting a clutch sucks not being able to hit 5th because of high rpms

I recorded a race of a full exhaust, cai, boss 302 intake manifold, 3.73s, custom tune 5.0 and a zl1 with a tune and cai that was auto... It wasn't even close.



fast forward to 1:40

That v should have easily walked you if tuned and driven correctly. They only weigh 300 lbs more but have nearly 100 more whp. 300 lbs is nothing in terms of weight difference compared to 100 whp....

The 5.0 owner had some wet dream that he could beat him easily, even SVTP and his 5.bros said he could...

My car does not have a boss intake. CJ all day plus a real tune AED ftw and how do you figure easily walk me? And it's more like 500 lbs i shared what happened and it can't be that hard to drive a automatic car. After all he did get the hit the V is a nasty car would love to have one. But i'm impressed with my car and the way it runs. And when i did run him i thought i was gonna get murdered ill be sure and rerun him and get it on video to show to you that not all 5.0 bros run like ****.

His car did 435 whp with a custom tune, no mods changed. I don't think 20 hp is that big of a difference, I raced an ss with that much more power than my z28 and beat him. We were both 02 3.73 auto cars. I just had skinnies on.

We both did 40 roll, but he took the hit AND I hit the limiter. We are inside of my car. He did 10 more whp at the peaks but in the curve the difference was as high as 20-25 whp. At 6k rpm he was making 25 more.

Idk i was shocked when he said he had mods. But 3.31 gears with the cj just pull and pull. Ill probably need headers or even cams. When he does headers and a heat exchanger though his car seems to heat soak pretty quick.

Yeah we were at dyno day, that's how we met the zl1 owner. He lost 20-30 whp from first to 3rd/4th pull. Even with timing added and/or no changes.
