Where im getting ppl thinking its supposed to be faster than it is, is from comments like the ones in this thread. Why would anyone be surprised that a bone stock c7 would lose to a bolt on cammed fbody in a roll race?

I mean they are 114-117mph cars stock and thats about average for a cammed fbody. A well setup one can EASILY trap 120+...
I think they did the rear like that so they could improve it over the next few years.

Cam and LT's making 500/450, pretty damn good for JUST coming out and being one of the test dummies. I'm sure they'll easily be able to pull more out of them with more tuning knowledge and some more bolt-ons.

Not to mention is sounds sick!

It's a mild cam...the factory mufflers have the switch flipped for open exhaust baffles...so, the exhaust is decently loud,..the cam,..although has some lope...to me sounds pretty mild.

Idk maybe im just thinking too max effort. Would love to know the cfm/cam specs of that combo. I personally will be approaching 500whp with stock cams/heads. But ive sucked the power out of this car elsewhere.

You would have still said the same thing if the car did make 550rwhp, except the number you would have used would've been 600 instead. Haters gonna hate!

Like most have already said, give these cars sometime. Just like when the 5.0 hit the streets, running high 12s/bottom 13's, most of the Ford guys said the same thing....give it time. Look how that turned out!

Honestly, I'm impressed with the results considering that's close to a 100whp improvement with a MILD cam and heads combo, no ported intake, no full bolt-ons - very mild setup. Just wait until guys perfect the tuning, go with more aggressive H/C setup and maybe an aftermarket intake!! They'll blow that number out the water.

Considering the Coyote/Roadrunner has yet to eclipse the N/A potential of the LSX, I doubt very seriously it will even hold a candle to this new technologically-advanced LTWon.

lol really? Haters gonna hate?

And yea youre right... 455whp still running a 79mm factory throttle body def does not eclipse that of the GM world. Not even close

When it makes 485-490whp in a few months still running stock cams/heads/cubes/octane.... you can preach to me more about how NA it doesnt hold a candle to GM NA power

You called what I said a TERRIBLE rebuttal?? Look what just wrote...

Not only was it terrible but it was weak,childish, and ignorant.

If you were a real drag racer you would know that drag racing ANYTHING has the potential to be BADASS. If its a minicooper that runs 9's and waxes every vette mustang or camaro that it lines up with then thats a bad mfer! Of course the douches like yourself will say that its still a minicooper but at the end of the day that mini cooper will **** all over your cars.

Point being, chargers have ran 8's. Any AMERICAN made RWD car that can make a 8 sec pass down the 1/4 is BADASS and the furthest thing from RETARDED, retard.

That's their smallest cam for the C7? I guess they start their cams at big floppy donkey dick. I know there are a good portion of folks here who have bigger cams than that but this C7 will be a daily driven vehicle for most(and when I say most, I mean 55-65yo's). And in the daily driven world, for that age group, that is a BFDD.

Careful this is ls1tech....LS2s with stock heads will make 500whp pretty easily.
