I make 640rwhp and stock GT's make 550rwhp.

Put a 200 shot on your car, then you'd be quick.

i think the part that was bad assest for me was that second vid when they camera car was still accelerating. it hit 150 and you could barely tell the GT had two seperate tail lights it was soo far off.
sweet vids!
Sweet car!

Wow, those guys got taken to school. By the way, Lingenfelter is currently working on a TT LS7 project...850hp. Why don't we give an LS series motor 21lbs of boost and see who's making more power

The TA is a six speed with a stock 3.42 10 bolt. The GT was not stock, has had the pulley changed, exhaust and a tune.

Just that? I'll take the LS7 with bolt ons, cam, and a nice shot. Install some forged pistons and still come out way cheaper. And much lighter.

TRMIN8R made 640hp 650tq on 91 octane

the Ford GT he raced was here at 6,000 feet elevation not to mention the DA adds more....TRMIN8R would have pulled that Ford GT harder at sea level then here at our altitude, N/A cars are affected way more then FI cars at altitude...

...and you would be wrong again. TRMIN8R's car is NOT naturally aspirated.
He brings his own atmosphere with him in the form of nitrous. Nitrous
cars do much better than blower cars at elevation. I would imagine the
GT would perform much better at sea level than TRMIN8R's car.
Turbo cars on the other hand are less affected by DA.

You mentioned above that DA "adds more" elevation. That's complete
Elevation is a factor in calculating DA.

The cost to performance ratio jsut isnt there. For 150K I could make a truck that would beat a GT
