Default What times for modded c5 guys

What times are most of you guys running with a modded c5? Mods like head/cam, full exhuast and all the other stuff that goes along with it.

Here is my progression. Ride is a 99 FRC, enough said...

Stock 13.22, 60' times where horrid 2.2's.

Added Goodyear F1GSD3's, Raptor Shift Light and Ripper Shifter,
12.92.

Added Blackwing.
12.91.

Added BFG DR's on the rear and Vararam VR2B and an LS6 intake.
12.55.

Added Melrose LT headers, Random High Flow CATS and X-pipe.
12.20.

Added Thunder Racing 230/224 575/563 111LSA Cam.
12.32, with clutch not gripping like it should.

Took off the DR's put the F1GSD3's back on to help the clutch last a little longer and with all the above mods.
12.3 all day with 2.0 60's.


Now its clutch time to hunt for the 11's. Please note, I am still running stock mufflers. Quite as can be .

wow you guys are fast... faster than i thought possible for something with IRS. did you have to do geometry or strength mods to run those 10s/11s? i'm asking bc i keep hearing the IRS on goats and 03 cobras suck. strangely those cars don't even handle either.

I did the following in my sig the other night with a brief cool-off and no changes to anything (not even tire pressure) in 80 degrees and 80% humidity (TERRIBLE weather for a blower).

I expect low 11s @ 125+ out of it in good air all with a 2400 stall.

Seems like adding a sc to the C5 and your pretty much set on low 11's....Is there a quarter mile list for the C5's with what mods they have?

I'd like to know this as well. 98 auto with a NX 100shot, or NX 150shot.

Are 11's achievable with the above mods, and 100 or 150 wet shot?

With a good s/c setup today you can make 600rwhp. That should put you in the mid -low 10's once you learn how to put all that power to the ground. It will take some seat time and maybe some broken parts as well.
