So no tune. Cold air really didn't do ****. SO stock vs stock really. Still good run. Looked like it was pretty even.

So would it be fair to say that a stock 4th Gen LS1 and a stock Mach 1 are equally matched?


Good race OP; thanks for posting the video.

I wouldnt say they're definitely equal the mach is clearly an m5 while the camaro is an auto. I would say that m5 mach1=auto ls1 but m6 ls1>mach1 not trying to make up excuses here but everyone knows that an m6 ls1 is quicker than an auto stock, so its not really all that complicated to figure out what would have happened if the camaro was a 6 spd. Stock for stock they are kinda even but the but the edge is to the ls1

INB4 10pg's of ls1 bashing by the stang guys and how mach 1's and are always even.

Good kill op!! Now any bolt-on is not a bolt-on. You ford maggots need to go to a ford site. This **** is a joke anymore.

Usual outcome for 5-spd Manual Mach vs. A4 LS1. Neither of the two want any part of a 6M LS1 w/ a good driver behind the wheel. Haha. Good run!

yeah alot of my friends had told me when i got my longtubes that it would wake my car up and honestly i really had now clue that they really would do alot but man i was super suprised on how well they improved the cars performance. i was curious to know if any one had an idea on what gears a srt8 challenger had cause i raced one and every run he would jump out but i got him 3 for 3 at top end any ideas

those would be bolt ons. intake and tune give it more power and the short throw helps him stay in the power longer, all of which contribute to it going faster.
