I don't know if he's lying about his #'s, mods, or track times. He ran 12.6 @ 111mph 400rwhp/403rwtq. I'm just bolt ons with LT headers

With bolt ons and headers 400rwhp seems very possible (~375hp stock IIRC) and they run low 13s stock.

What are your mods/times?

Hopefully you are equally or better modded.

No, the SRT8 has intake, exhaust, & tune. I have FTRA, lid, P&P throttle body, LS6 intake, LT's, GMMG

I would say a tune and gears and you would walk him..

Way cars are now.. pretty even below 100, after that he has a steady pull.

I guess we will see. He always has an excuse for not wanting to race me. I caught him on the freeway a few months back and he still wasn't trying to do a friendly run. I too think he'll walk me with his power if that is indeed true.

^ As heavy as those things are? I think it will be dead close if anything.

Couldn't agree more. That would ensure a victory.

Heres what they can do with a tune.

Even if an SRT8 can trap 111-114 Tuned I still think with your mods you should win. My Full Bolt on A4 00 WS6 went 12.6@112 and I never lost to any SRT8. I think you will win by half a car.
