Good kill OP and nice C5Z
still badass mothafxcka over 10 years laters
that set up on paper, he wouldnt need to brake boost and wont even need to " no lift shift " and still put lengths on you easily, but it never works out like that, some cars are just built/set up shitty or shitty driver, or both, which in this case both judging from what i saw on the video,
regardless nice kill,

2002 C5 Z06
ARH 1 3/4 longtubes
Catless Xpipe
Callaway Honker cold air intake
402rwhp 376rwtq
2005 Evo8
2.3 stroker
35r ball bearing turbo (not sure on specifics)
cams
full supporting mods, etc
26psi 93 octane pump gas
510whp 378wtq
IMO the driver of the EVO made two mistakes when he ran me. He did not brake boost and he did not no lift shift. You can see when he goes to shift into 4th in the video I really pull him pretty bad. We are planning on getting some better videos soon. 20mph, 40mph, and then 60mph rolls.
I think if he brake boosts and no lift shifts it will be much closer, with the edge probably going to him. The run in the video I started in 3rd gear at 55mph which is a dead spot for me anyways. I'll make sure i'm more in my powerband in the next races.
Enjoy.

My buddies C5Z has been 98 in the 1/8th and loses to our buddies stock turbo Evo every time. He can come around the Evo after 120-125. The nitrous system blew a fuse one night and accidently raced a 35r Evo on the motor and it put 5-6 cars on him from 40-100.

What is the setup on the stock turbo EVO? Friend of mine has an Evo8 with Evo9 turbo, full bolt ons, cams, 28psi made 362whp and best pass in 50 degree weather is 12.6 at 110mph. Other friend has an Evo8 with an FP green that trapped a best of 111mph at 25psi. We don't have E85 here....only 93 pump so maybe that is the difference?

Even on 93 that trap is low, I made 343 whp on a dynojet (filter, turbo back, mbc set to 22psi, 93 octane) and trapped 114 when I didn't know to hold 4th and then 116 when I let it touch the limiter...horrible 60's too cause I had falken azenis on and had to roll through the water box. This is on a ix, the 8's have slightly longer gearing which I believe helps at the bolt on 116 trap area.

More often than not the drivers dump the clutch and think just because they're going nose up and its hooking that its a good launch, you ever go to the evo vs sti events? 2.0 60's everywhere and the smell of burnt clutch lingers in your nose for hours lol.
And as we all know not all tunes are equal, I got tuned by a well known shop in my area...made 343 whp which was right about where I should be for my mods and couldn't understand why my traps were low the first time at the track, after datalogging I found 11-13 counts of knock that the shop blamed on 'ny gas' lol.
Btw I love your car, I'm in the market for an 04 electron blue z or possibly an 05 Le Mans next year.
