Don't put a converter yet. Put a colder plug with the right gap, install the kit and put the activation on a hand held button.

I promise you, the most fun you've ever had in a car period. Lol

 

He truly does. It would probably steam roll It's Stock full weight, 369hp, bolt on, 235 all seasons 5.brethren.

 

Takes a pretty good bolt on bro to beet a bolt on ls1

 

5th gens with blowers usually roll the **** out. Fortunately for me it was retuned for less horsepower (guy was afraid he had too much power, idiot) and they don't understand air fuel ratio and power to weight.

 

Yeah, I rocked an old guy from a light with an edelbrock blower 5G vert with a 68 front end swap.

Sounded quiet so let him go first and then heard the whine and was like Fack!

 

There is a pretty quick TVS 2014 5.0 around here.. with some joosey joose runs high 5's in the 1/8th. Quick car.

 

Yep.. people don't understand the capabilities of the new autos coming out. With mine, I just move the shifter to S mode, go to 2nd gear @ 40-45 and pop back into D when hitting it. D mode is faster on my car(shifts higher rpm than Sport mode). So nail it and let the pooter take over.

Can they not adjust your shift points? I am going to dyno my car, and get Lund to adjust my shift points... if I ever get the toon... Still waiting.

Those are the type of guys I like to race and beat.


Troof. 5th gen at my local 1/8th with full exhaust(headers back), tune etc was running 1 tenth quicker than me in my catback only GT. Talked to the owner... actually a nice guy, said it put down 429rwhp.

Easily done as long as it's not a stroked, 6.2 block swap like your bolt-on cah Hammah.

Just being honest, but the LS1 doesn't compare to the 5.0. The advantage the 4th gen guys have is power to weight. Drop a Yote in a 4th gen, and the car will go a second quicker in the 1/4 stock vs stock.


I haven't even found a decent race yet in my car... just one highway race with a 5th gen(yeah... he didnt win).

 

Coyote about a tenth behind a ls1

 

A month after I bought my Scat Pack I had a yellow L99 with auto bot emblems follow me and pull up next to me at the light......LOL Dude was actually really nice and saw I had the dealer tags still. He asked if I was enjoying the car. I was like OHH YEA! This was after the train parade I put on it.

 

Fastest bolt on ls1 is faster than the fastest bolt on 5.0

 

My question is, whipple or kenne bell? Hmm...

 

At what race weight? That's what the LS1 guys like to leave out.

 

Speed by Design Twin Turbo.

 

Neither. Twin turbo Hellion. Mmm

 

What I have learned from fox body guys and br0's comparing br0's to the 5th gen is that weight is irrelevant

 

Whipple. Don't listen to these fools. Terboz are ghey

 

I always felt that you really can't fault a car for coming out of the factory at a lower weight. It seems that today's car are getting fatter each year. This may be because of safety equipment or better interiors and sound deadening. Whatever the reason, this weight difference can keep a race closer that you would imagine between older and newer cars.
Newer cars may be coming out of the factory with more Horsepower today but much of it is being negated by the extra weight they are packing. I think this is what keeps races between a 5.0 and an LS1 close.
I think the difference in Hp only shows itself on the top end but not acceleration.

 

Negative, my car will have a PD blower on it. Specifically a 2.8-3.2LC or the 2.9 whipple.

I won't be afraid to spin it either.

 

Will your car rev to 7000?

 

Hell yeah. That instant torque is glorious.
