What's it take to beat a LS1.. A bigger LS1.
If you are a Mustang and you want to beat a stock LS1, you might have a chance with the 2015 model, they might catch up by then..

LOL wheres the MERV when u really need him , ya gears exhaust and some sort of intake will usually do it from what i have delt with, depending on how bad your car has been abused through out the years, one thing LS1 does have for it is that fact that they are newer and most of them have way less mileage than most street driven LT1s....outside of that, this is about the only input i have, u really should have did a search, we litterally jsut wrapped up this topic last week in a relatively hasty manor, we had administraters involved and everything lol so if u wonder why peoples patience are running thin with LT1 newbies and the infamous "whats it take to beat a stock LS1" questions.........let me be the first to answer 20hp throughout the powerband.........leave it at that
