Yup lost to a juiced stock z06. I then ran him again without the bottle...guess what, he got spanked.

I talked to Nitro Dave. He thinks i should go with anice wet kit. He is the nitorus man but what do you guys think. I guess the wet kit outperformas the dry giving it more torque. He also said he can hide the kit if i send him my intake manifold. What do you think about running like a 100-150 shot wet? Also what kit should i go with? NX MAF, tnt? This will be after the MS3 i decided

Now thats what im trying to get across..spraying a cammed car..Awesome and fun! But if you have to depend on "spray only" to win races, that is no feat!

Dude, i dont care about beating other cars o nthe street. I cannot get caught racing which is kinda dumb in my opinion. Sure i may do it once in a whiule but nothing too excessive. I want it for the track. If my car cant take someone on cam only, than ill spray it. Cam only i should make around 400 to the rears which is enuff for street use and with a shot of nitrous, i could porlly get low-mid 11's! Its not jsut the spray thats going to make me fast. The cam will get me about 40 more hp ALL the time. and a sick sound. if i feel the need for more power i can jsut arm the nitrous and gooo.

Depending on the cam you can get a lot more than 40 HP all the time. I went from around 310 RWHP stock to about 400 w/ cam and boltons.

IIRC, TSP advertises that they normally get around 60-65 rwhp with an MS3 and a good tune on an M6.

With the MS3, pulley and LS6 intake I dropped 0.7 and added 6.5 mph.....and that was in June.

I've raced many '03 COBRAS...from stock to modified. Yeah, they're quick, but they're not that fast. I've raced with and without the N2O. A good buddy of mine has an '03, he runs 11.7's and we thought it would be fun to run'em one night. It wasn't even a race, I sprayed a little 125 on him from a 50 roll (A4) and I only saw him dissappearing in my rearview... I think it would have been a better race if I had just raced him NA

I think NA probably would have been more fun, I LOVE neck and neck races the best. where There is no room for error.
