First of all, who really cares? Second of all, has this site become completely over run by 16 year olds? Some of you seem to believe anything you read. I can't say whether it is legit or not because it is just a claim. But I'm certainly not going to get all worked up over it and lose sleep at night because someone says they made a 400 rwhp bolt on LS1 f-body. As Wilwaxu said, these numb nuts made this claim over a couple years ago and they wouldn't step up to any reasonable challenge so they got torn apart on this site and were never heard from since.

I did a yahoo image search, and came up with an image of an SS Camaro, called HuggerSS. Interesting thing is, the page listed is speedengineering. Just type in Elesha Walker in image search. Wonder if there's some sort of connection....

I made 425 on a dyno a few years ago and ran the following day at the track.
Ran a 12.4 on a slick in a automatic.
I then went to a different dyno and made 340.
His dyno was was over rating numbers.
Same thing could be possible here.
But who really cares?

i still say it's possible.

they've made 350 rwhp with bolt-on M6's. they need 50 more rwhp. remove every single accessory, lightened EVERYTHING, high octane fuel with a very aggressive tune and dynoed on a very cold day...i could see it happening.

Who cares about a car that cant post up any time slips or videos of the car running...who knows, someone might even have stolen someone's firebird pictures and photoshopped a dyno run to 400 hp and put it on a webpage. Its the internet, I could bs people and say my 93 camaro has 500hp and people would believe it. I wouldnt even have to put up a dyno pull or time slip on a website to gain credibility or interest from someone.
