Good race from two pretty nasty cars!
Here you go chief. That is about as flat of a graph as you will see from a centrifugal blower. That is 4 psi, imagine what 7 looks like. https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...575&highlight=

While that's a great looking graph, it's pretty much exactly what I
expected...not a "table top torque curve" as you described...chief.

7psi doesn't look a whole lot different...just a little more power.
10 second cars are boring to me anyway.

Regardless, badass race and nice cars.

Oh and btw I was not being sarcastic when I called you chief. It was either that or bro.

Cool. I thought I'd hit you back with "chief" since it sounded a little
sarcastic.

You won't catch me saying anything negative about C6 Z06's.
They are nasty cars. Well, except that only short guys can fit
in the damned things.

interesting... the z06 would of been father ahead if he didn't take FOREVER on that 1-2, 2-3 shift.

Would love to do something like this to my c6 z06. I maybe getting teh A&A vortech SC kit with their A2A... any idea on the power differences? (For redline M.)

I just expected more from a big bad KB blwon Cobra. Obviously the weight difference is huge as well.

The weight difference was probably what made the biggest difference. Power wise the two can't be that far off.

The outcome would've been worse for the Cobra due to more traction
issues.

Both badass cars. The cobra...even if it had hooked would not have caught the vette. You can see in the video that after it did finally hook, that the vette was still pulling.

and I agree with you Unit.......I did not even bother looking at the graph, because there is no such thing as a "table top flat" dyno graph for any V8 w/ a centrifugal blower. They are peaky and build up like a big single turbo.

Anyway, nice vid....nice cars!!!
