This calculator says I have 464 HP. So, I have to assume that 500HP cars are 10 second machines - if they have their combo is working.

[QUOTE=Camaro_94;15658918]I dont agree with that logic. But to each their own. Its just another way of making power.
do you use you bottle everytime your on the street... then its no 500HP street car.

[QUOTE=Tyler Z28;15664150]Some people don't go WOT every time they drive their car, does that mean they also wouldn't be driving a 500+ whp? My car made 520 on the N20, it's been sprayed on the street from a roll, from a dig and for no ******* reason at all.

Gonna have to agree. your 500+ rating should be without N20. Otherwise anyone could put a big shot of N20 on a stock car and make that claim. Keep it real. Im at 500whp without my 175 shot BTW.

We'll just have to agree to disagree then. 500+rwhp is 500+ rwhp. The real difference is mine drives like stock making 440rwhp on motor, but with the flick of a switch, I can make 500+, while still keeping stock drivability everywhere else.
The ability to have 500+ hp is there when I want it, but not when I dont. Nitrous is just another way of making power. Just like anything else. So, when people ask me how much power I make, should I just tell them 440, since nitrous numbers dont count? And then when they assume its making 440rwhp, but see that its making a little more, I'd be considered an *** hole on that same level, since when I want 500+rwhp, its there.

Well by that logic I can just throw my n20 kit on my 300hp dd truck, run a 200 hit at it occasionally and call it a 500hp dd. It's not really a 500 Hp vehicle
Now my old setup made 500rw n/a at 7000rpm. And was a full time thing without a flip of a switch.
It's not the same. I believe the op meant 500hp at the crank. Without nitrous.
With a sc or t4 power is readily available. At any time

I could if I wanted to. It is in the trunk and ready to go when needed. Most people dont even use all their power everytime they go out anyways.

My C5 with M6 trans makes right around 500hp crank (430 wheel) NA and gets approx 33-34mpg highway. The highway gas mileage is actually a little better then when it was stock with 350hp. And city mpg isn't bad at all either, I usually average around 22-23mpg city and highway combined. I just mean 500hp NA doesn't always mean sucky gas mileage now-a-days.
