can i beat an ls1 z28 with this setup
I have a 93 a4 z28, here are the parts that will be installed in the next 2 weeks, or are already installed.
K&N fipk
air foil
tb bypass
cutout
flowmaster muffler
hi flo cat
shiftkit
tranny cooler
all royal purple fluids
zr1 fuzion tires (very soft compound)
app 50 lb weight reduction
2:73 gears
im racing a friend of mine he has an exhaust only a4 2000 z28, with very cheap tires. Im not sure what gears, im assuming 323s., He said hell kill me, and it wont even be a race. I dont know if i can win or not. But assuming my car is running right, completely up to par, what do you think my chances are. What kind of hp should i be pulling from this setup? We are doing a 50 roll, and a 0-100 run. Tell me what you think my chances are

racing is racing so anything can happen. So yes you might win. However in reality you have less HP in essentaially the same car. So it doesn't take much to figure it out.
If you can launch well then a dig may be a good idea and keep the race from0-80mph and you'll stand a decent chance. The faster you go the better the Ls1 will likely be.
Lastly find out what gears they have, if it's 3.23 go from a 38-40mph roll as it is a dead spot for them. I'm assuming you Lt1 will kickdown like a 2.73 geared LS1. At 39-40mph my z/28 will still kickdown to first.

I think i posted in your other thread about your estimated hp levels. my buddy that i talked about with lightly modded ws6 6speed put down 262rwhp and i raced him when my ls1 28 was bone stock also an m6 and it was not even close. put like 5 lengths on him no matter what gear we started in. He went 14.1 in 1/4 and i went 13.0 stock

I called my uncle jeremy up, he has an auto 99 ls1 firebird convertible/ with no mods. Im racing him tomorrow, he a heavier and pushing less horses, so i wanna see how that will go. Im gonna put on my intake, and airfoil, before we race. that should be another 10 at the wheels and ill see how that goes. If i can win this, than i should do well against the 00Z since i will then have a shift kit, a cutout, and a tb bypass installed. Ill post the results
