Wheelie? On a 4th Gen Camaro/Firechicken:
Taking into consideration that you have a stock(ish) weight car, and are able to to dead-hook the tires at launch...how much hp/tq does it actually take to raise a wheel off the ground, or both?
PLEASE only factual responses! Respond ONLY if you know your hp/tq dyno numbers AND you know for a fact that you can raise your front wheels.

It isnt really HP/TQ related. My N/A setup 400whp 6 speed and 4.30 gears pulled them up 6-8". My turbo setup with twice that power and 3.50 gears doesnt get them up at all....because I want the car to go straight forward, not up in the air wasting energy. Rear gear and the suspension geometry is what does wheelies. If I moved my suspension and changed the instant center the car would do wheelies.
