Default 00' z28 vs 01 bullitt

me and my best friend like messing around an he wanted to do some pulls, i didnt really want to due to my gears being to high, but i just decide to go with it lol

he has an 01 bullitt with 3.73s short throw and or/x with flowmaster 10s

i have a 2000 z28 a4 all stock excpt for slp lid and magnaflow cat-back

the first run i just left my car in drive and he honked it off and we went to 90mph, and he was a finder ahead of me.

the next run we did a pull from 30 and i left my car in 1st (a4), and he honked it of this time i was half a car ahead of him we went to 100mph

he was stunned that my stock z28 smoked his 01 bullitt with work done to it. sorry no video :/ ill get one next time.

I don't think you smoked him if he beat you by a fender the first time and you only pulled half a car on him the second time lol.

I was actually expecting you to beat him worse both times.

The gears helped him a lot, and a stock auto hurts you a bit. Good krill regardless!

Power wise just the intake. But the car is heavier than a GT so it runs about the same.

Practice driving more. You should clobber him pretty well after 50MPH.

In terms of performance, higher flowing intake manifold, underdrive pulleys, high flow mufflers, lowering springs with Tokico shocks, subframe connectors, and larger Brembo brakes. Everything else was cosmetic for the most part.

Did he pull out hard on you then you came back strong at the end? Thats what I would expect to happen. Nice runs irregardless.
