Was the chase car not trying to keep up? lol Seems like the sti should have been right on top of them with the #s it put down.

yes i think he deff has a bit more power to be made the tuner isnt known to be the best. but yes my car runs very strong for stock heads/intake etc.most likely going with ported ls3 heads and sheetmetal intake or edelbrock pro flo. would really like to run the holley hi ram but i would have to get a new hood

Just depends on combo and tune. Two guys here that are buddies of mine have same mods as op stated. One makes 468whp other makes right at 480whp. They have different heads and cam. Same tuner. Both have ran in the 11.5 range at the track.

Those numbers are what cam only ls3 cars are making, like I said it's pretty weak. LG cam and a few others are showing 470+ on avg. Cars with heads and intakes are making 490 to over 500. Maybe he's running a pretty mild cam with a crap tune.

Thats pretty normal for stock cube LS3's you mean. And porting LS3 heads generally doesn't do squat for power without more cubes. Porting the intake does help though. Cam + bolton LS3's around here are 450-480rwhp depending on how big a cam. Of course all dyno's differ... and some just flat out lie...
