Default My car is a dog. Help!!

I have an 02 WS6 Pat stg II heads, cheater cam, jet hot headers, ls7 clutch, upgraded t-56 with stock 3.42's. 394rwhp, 386 tq. I can't whip a stock 03 Z06, I even switched cars. Also, I tested myself against a firehawk vert. and only pulled him by a car. I'm thinking traction may be one of my issues given when I drove the vert and punched from 3grand, the car digs and pulls, My car wheel hops and roast the tires at 3, 5, and 6k. I actually have the better tires. The car just doesn't seem to pull hard inspite of the dyno torque numbers being above stock everywhere. What can be the problem. I need to fix it quick. The ZO6 raped me on the highway. I used to run with Z06's when I was stock. .

You answered your own question there bud. Your tires are spinning hard it sounds like. What kind of tires are you using? And who tuned the car?

Xtreme auto accessories in Memphis. They're really a monopoly for ls1's around Memphis.
