at least a tune, who knows what else. no 5.0 is getting anywhere close to 115 mph bone stock at 500 DA.

Let's apply LS1Tech logic to this car (which didn't even have 1000 miles on it, by the way).

My car at 386rwhp (BEFORE the 9", which sucks minimal power) goes 115.xx in the 1/4 mile at 3800lb raceweight.
This car at roughly the same rwhp stock goes 115.xx in the 1/4 mile at 3600lb curb weight without driver. That is with a full tank of fuel, stock wheels, and no driver. Take out 10 gallons of gas, we'll say 25 pounds for wheels even though it is likely more, and a 200 pound passenger. Less raceweight than my car.

My car is a turd and slow as hell for what it is, but it's impossible for the 5.bro to go 115 stock.

LS1Tech logic.

two completely different cars. the only ones that get anywhere close to 115 is the boss, and they rev 1000 RPM higher.

you know how to make a 5.0 rev higher? tune it....

Two completely different cars..one being less weight and the same power but shouldn't go the same MPH?

I'm confused. Do physics and LS1Tech logic not apply to cars that don't have LS motors in them?

Trying to help my girlfriend find a new job. This **** is crazy, middle class needs a raise in a bad way. A few years experience and a 4 year degree for 30-40k a year jobs is ******* retarded.

I have no interest driving a car I can't afford. When I'm ready to buy one then I will. And it'll be nice to know I can easily lay down a bottom 12 or high 11 with just a tire.

they're quite slow stock. I say you might run a 12.9 with a tire in low DA.
