my car is an 04 m6 with 3mods.(look at my sig) my buddy in the 05 m6 had a k&n intake. he just got his car and we wanted to test it out. (against the smaller goat) we started at a 10mph roll i had him by half a car after the 3rd horn and i started creeping away slowly til about 80mph then we started slowing down.

so we got onto an interstate and did a 50mph roll, after the 3rd horn again i was up by almost a whole car in front of him we raced til about 130mph the whole time i was up front almost a whole car it was pretty good for me anyway. but the thing is i'm not so intimidated by almost STOCK 6.0's anymore.

AND i have never seen a gto with the badge embroidered into the floor mat inside the trunk. how many cars came with that?

 

Good runs! Alot of people underestimate the 04 goats, but you car is just another example that they can put up awsome power for minimal mods like all LSX's

 

those are aftermarket mats, theres a few companies that make them...

is your buddys car an m6? good kill.

 

The tune is probably what gave you the edge IMO, maybe a little bit of the driver mod too.

 

after pulling my head out of my *** i see it said m6 for your buddies car, i would credit the driver mod to this one. you should try again after he has more seat time.

 

Its always a really good kill when you beat a car with more power!

 

It's only .3 liters. That can easily be overcome with a few mods. Add in the fact that the guy just got the car and you have a win.

 

It'd be cool to see you guys swap cars and see if the outcome changes.

 

ive only had my car since November of 08. but ive put 15k miles on it since

 

this is true, however he still is putting down less than a stock ls2 based on whats in his signature.

we dont know anything else though, like if the other guy weighs 500lbs and tuscanyls1 weighs 83lbs. that would affect the outcome as well.

 

ha, that's a lot of miles, but better than the car just wasting away in the garage.

 

.3 liters AND.... a MUCH better heads and cam setup and more compression.

Yea, just .3 liters....

OP, good kill but I don't foresee this happening again once your buddy has some more seat time.

 

i weight in about 200 he looked about 220ish little heavier

 

i have maybe 17k into my car with mods he paid 22k and watever he paid for a k&n intake. i think i got the better bang for the buck. ive only had my car 2 months longer. tho im not sure how many miles he put on his since

 

The 5K difference in price will easily let you round out your bolt-on package and then slap on a nice heads/cam package. I don't think he'll give you much trouble with you have 100 more rwhp than him, lol. Of course if I were him then I'd toss on an N2o kit at that point...ahh, the joys of friendly competition and modding up

 

Good kill
the money you save picking up the LS1 over the 05/06 LS2 models you could prolly buy a decent set of heads and cam which is why I picked up the 04 vs the LS2 models. I figured I'm going to mod the car anyway and once the heads come off it's anyones games. (however I still have stock heads ) But the tune saved you, if the LS2 had a tune it would have been very different.

 

Good kill, i finally got to see an 04 GTO run this passed Friday night. He went up against a Nismo 350Z. Idk how the 1st run turned out as they ran em down the road, GTO won and the 2nd run which they ran back this way. GTO won again but the Nismo was about a car length right behind the GTO. GTO sounded stock. Nismo didnt sound very modded at all either.

Not sure if GTO was A4 or M6 though. Nismo was standard. Both runs were from a dig.

 

if just a tune makes up for 50hp/35 ft/lbs ill take two of them bad boys. ha.

 

speaking of friendly a couple mustang guys got in a fight over whos car was faster last weekend. pre race from the mine. it was very sad all i heard where my tires are more sticky and my intake is better then fists started flying. wish i had a camera for that one. about 1:30am DT kent by ikea for the seattle guys. anyone else see that?
