No Doug. You have basically everything you could possibly bolt onto the car, some stuff that you have to take the valve covers off for, TONS of port work, holes drilled in rotating parts, fairly sure you've custom-built parts for it, you've removed literally all of the safety parts (bumper supports, door bars(?), airbags), and you have aluminum sheets installed under the car to help with aerodynamics. As Mike has said NUMEROUS times; your car is very impressive, and very fast. But it is far from simple, and almost impossible to duplicate. Any other person would have an 8s car for the amount of time/money you've put into yours. There's nothing wrong with what you've done, but putting down other people for not doing things to the extent you've done them with "bolt-ons" is childish and ridiculous. And it has absolutely nothing to do with my car, before you bring it up.
for his downplay of his car after Irun14's post.

So here is what i do. When i see e85 #s i minus 15hp.....or add 15 just as a round #. With that said i have seen where it can be worth more than 15 at times and definitely worth more throughout the curve.
Yes.....you did deflect. Just as you're doin now.

For starters almost everything on my car was bought used. Yea......imagine that. Taking someone elses **** they're selling and out running them with it. Did that when i raced carts to
The car has always had bumper supports and door bars. Where the **** do you even come up with this? I've posted pics of it under the hood......so clearly again you don't know wtf you're talking about. So you just make **** up. To reiterate. ....nearly all the safety devices are there.
Airbags are gone and I'm glad after all this airbag recall bs with shrapnel in them. Seat belt is your first line of defense.....and all 4 are in the car along with the back seats. The stock front seats are in it now to.....along with the stock shifter.
I have one sheet boxing off the back of the car.......notice that is not plural. Now i may make more just to here you cry. As a side note......the sheet in the rear made the car quieter, win win right theeeerrrr.
It's ******* bolt ons. Very simple and can be duplicated easily. Now maybe you don't have the skills to duplicate it......but that's your own problem.
Where is all this "tons of port work"? The ******* intake is ported. I ported it.......you think I'm better than mamo? If not then a mamo intake could likely make more power......hhhhhmmmmm
**** i ran to 11.0 on a ****** stock tq arm, lowering springs and not the drag type and stock shocks. Ran 11.1 with no aluminum sheet no rockers and a ls6 intake and airbags with a stick car on nittos
Through all this the car has been on a ****** y pipe, air lid, pump gas and spinning all accessories. ......plenty to be gained.
Hell it's not like I've spent tons of time trying these alternate fuels like the 5br0s love.....you seem to discount that.
You clearly don't know wtf you are talking about......along with some others on here. But it's way easier to cry about it than go figure it out for yourself.
Thank you

Hey i would love to try e85. But there is no real purpose in 5br0 nut swingers wanting to compare hp #'s of a 5br0 on e85 vs a ls3 on pump. Idk what more gm guys haven't embraced it. It clearly makes power.
So here is what i do. When i see e85 #s i minus 15hp.....or add 15 just as a round #. With that said i have seen where it can be worth more than 15 at times and definitely worth more throughout the curve.

It is. Most think it's more than it is because it don't run like it's fucked.
Bring it up. Some people put holes in their rear bumper or even cut the bottom of it up out of the way. I didn't like that and i have built many defusers in my years. So yea....pretty basic.

Basically the above.
Good job on the runs fast. Camaro 6G clearly showing its superiority vs mustang 6G and below.
6g 5.0 cai/exhaust/e85/tune still lost vs a bone stock 6g ss. Clearly showing how dissapointing s550 5.0s are (and ugly).
Fast, are you still stock? Or is your car already in he shop to fet modded?
