i'm not so sure, you've got some advantages right now
in your favore. my stock radials won't help much 245/40/18
gdyr eagle rsa runflats. lol and i may get some clutch slip.
i may need to really address those issues, if it's going to be
a solid showing of what the car is capible of. lets see what
happens in the dyno/tune booth.
from your ET'S, you have more than what your showing Mr.!
LOL

What do you mean I have more than what I'm showing? You mean mods-wise? I can post up the full mod list if you want. It's just a mild H/C setup with some suspension work, steep gearing, and ET Streets. Honestly, I should be able to shave another tenth off without an issue with better tires but it still spins a bit off the line even when I launch at 5000 or so RPM. I should be able to dump it at 6500 but when I tried that I just sat there spinning. And my dyno numbers are SAE on a dynojet (Eastside Performance). My brother makes the same exact numbers and runs pretty much the same as me, also an 02 Z28 M6. The car is full weight, 3,500 pounds without me in it.

it means it's remote mounted. lol
rear mounted if you prefer. like an STS turbo system...
this is a "one off" build with no blueprint.

thank you, it's been about 4 months since
i decided to go FI,... and no1 had a turbo V.

So, thats pretty much my reason for the build.

what car? my car was 55k new...
but i would never buy a new showroom
floor car ever again, as a car is a bad investment
new(my last was a 2000 frc vett).
...so i bought this V (an 06) 18mo. lease trade for 32k.
with 10,227mi.

btw your sig stable is sweet...
and yes i'll smack your benz.

Well I have a bone stock E55, your comparing a car with a custom turbo setup on it.
But the 55 went 12.4 @ 114 mph on the stock Conti's. So I don't think it's that awfully quick, but it would **** on a stock CTS-V and it's quicker than the quickest bolt-on V. And that was in mid-80* air, hot off a 50 mile drive to the track.
Thanks for the compliment.

my goal is to dominate ALL production 4 door sedans.

with that being said, come git sum.
with a remote style setup my car really only has an exhaust
modification. all else remains stock.
now das wussup!

My money, clown. And I'm not looking for your respect.

I was complimenting you, but you've got a chip on your shoulder about a 4,000 lb. pig with a glass rear and an non-intercooled turbo setup that you 'hope' will make "475 to 500 rwhp".

So yeah...congrats. You might be able to beat a stock 55K car on a set of stock tires. Good for you.
