, dont all turbos need load to spool?

Face-plated transmission and lots of unique weight reduction.

Thanks...lol Just that no one suspects it to run like it does. It idles smooth, to look at it you would'nt suspect that it's a tick over a 3000lb car depending on fuel load. People expect a car to run with a choppy idle, seats missing, ac/cruise/abs removed for weight. My car still has all that and a smooth idle. Who would guess a stock ls6 n/a with bolt-ons and 80k on it to run 11.1 @126-130???....not me. That's not a hero run for it either. I can count on that with just a high 1.7 60'.

if the dude likes the higher rolls its his thing some might not like it who cares, dont race him, or race him his way and then yours. arguring over the internet is dumb the only reason i said anything is because someone who does not know me or my car felt like opening their mouth about it and how well i can drive it. I have beaten cars with over 140hp more then me, and was pretty much even with a car that trapped 122 when i trapped 121 with 70 less rwhp then i have now. ON THE STREET ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN. I prefer a 40 over anything some prefer digs and some higher rolls. When i get DRs i do alot more lower rolls and digs but at my power level on street tires its usless. Also everyhing that i have said i out ran can be backed up by others on this board

Racing is supposed to be fun, to many keyboard warriors, and haters.

Hio... curious if you want to run a h/c ls2 c6 from dig and maybe a 40 roll if you'll like? I'm heading up to ohio sept 4th but I can swing by on the way up and do some runs..

Hio's car picks up 33mph on the big end with a bolt on LS6. I know some fi cars that would like to pick up that much.
