1:22-1:23 the pull is done, that's 120-125 indicated. End of story. He in no way carried the momentum he did at the hit, and in 4th once the BMW is also in 4th gear.
i dont have a dog in this race.

the ls1 pulled till he lifted. no question about that.


whatever the 'wall' is for the n54, it is not a 'wall' for the LS.


cam only LS murders a high dollar bolt on turbo.

This, but they aren't that high dollar. As an owner of both cars I will say that the 335i has great pull up top and is comparable tot a cammed ls1 with shades of grey. With that said neither would really hit a distiguishable wall. I still don't see this race as a surprise and will say that the Camaro would still pull away withat least a couple lengths if the driver of the bimmer didnt screw up the run in the beginning.

Nice Vid. Good Job, usually with those bolt ons and meth the 335 would be at 420whp on a dynojet. The camaro did great. Not sure why the 335 needs 2 meth nozzles. Some have seen power decreases because of fuel trims from dumping in too much meth. I'm on upgraded turbos, and a single size 10 meth nozzle is all I need.

I'm on a CM10 nozzle as well. I think two is overkill honestly. Depending on the dyno a FBO and meth car can range from 380-450whp depending on the boost levels. LS1 fbodies put down power really well and it's not uncommon for a fbody around here to best a higher hp car even with similar characteristics and weight.
