Default 2018 camaro ss vs 392 charger Daytona

first run is from a dig to about 90 or so second run was a 40-130 slow but steady pull third race he screwed him self so only a 50-110. Also both cars are stock other than Intake Daytona models come with . Overall about what I expected with me having a passenger a slow pull lol

Beat him pretty easy considering you have a passenger. When did you get an SS? Any mods planned ?

passenger and full tank lol and got it this Friday loving it . No clue at the moment any recommendations I’m all ears seems like my first mod would be to ditch the dumb Suitcase single tip exhaust and drop some weight there .

wow I just thought it was a little closer. Must be a lot of the Scat YouTubers claiming stock r fibbing a little. That was a convincing win more than I expected given the variables

nice car and cingrats. I have plenty of suggestions and know a thing or two about a 6g. Depends on your goals before I could give advice. But an E85 tune is far and away the best bang for the buck. Just an E85 tunes 6g is pretty stout. Mid 11s with that alone

well im on the verge of mid 10s with bolt ons. I’m expecting 10.7s this fall. A couple more things and great air 10.5-6 is possible. Heads cam will get it done easily. The bad thing about boost on these cars is the fueling. If you are running E85 even an lt4 system is tapped out around 650 rwhp. **** gets ridiculous expensive after that. The fastest bang for the buck is heads cam FBO E85 with increased fuel lobe if you can do your own work. Low 10s possibly high 9s depending on your setup and how light the car is. A basic FI setup will get you into the same range but to go any faster be prepared to dump another 5k into fueling. A heads cam car on E85 with increased fuel lobe on the cam maxes out the fuel system completely and an fi car won’t be any faster without significant fueling upgrades

if you only have 93 I would suggest just throwing on a whipple. I think with 93 the stock system can support about 700 rwhp

Car is a 1ss I may go with just heads/cam this A8 is magic lol . And never knew the fuel system was so expensive that’s crazy and what’s this fuel lobe stuff I keep hearing about ? I did talk to prey he said with tuning you could knock off a half of a second . Also what you running for a dragsetup ?

The fuel lobe is on an aftermarket camshaft. It will get you some more fuel

pretty soon im gonna have drag brakes all around with 15s. But on the stock brakes you will want 17s and 26 tall tires. 315/35/17 Hoosier dr2 is the shortest/quickest and lightest tire. You also need a 26 tall front runner to match or your abs system will go haywire. Pray is awesome. I would get hptuners and a wideband and go to him for all your needs

dont even waste your time with a 28 tall tire. I tested both. The 315/35/17 Hoosier was at least .1 possibly .2 quicker than a 28 with a good 2 mph increase in trap speed

Good kill.
Mid 10's can be done on the stock fuel system and 93 with FI. It's good for about 580whp which should get there with the A8.

If you want more without getting into the motor, get the LT4 injectors, LPE big bore HPFP, and ZL1 intank. That is good for 680whp on E85. On 93 you would be able to go well over 700 but you will hit a octane wall and need some meth and/or race gas mixed. Torco would work too. This setup would be good for high 9's. After that, then it will take some more coin for a fuel system to go faster.

Cam with fuel lobe adds another 100hp of fuel headroom to whatever fuel system you currently have. So stock fuel system and a bigger fuel lobe would get you 680ish on 93. Will still need a low side pump(ZL1) and/or a BAP.

Heads/Cam makes sense if you are doing the work because it's going to be right up there with the cost of FI if a shop is doing the work. Heads/Cam LT1's do make some pretty good power as well. Not hard at all to get 580whp through the A8 with E85. On 93 you will be around 550whp.

Also just a fyi, Paddle shifting slows the car down even if you hit the shifts perfect. I have not been able to figure out why either.

Ive noticed that I used the paddles when I raced him expect for the dig and slower roll .i usually use manual mode and then then slap it over to drive still learning the car . Seems like the car is good for any roll speed with the auto . And really cam seems the best sense I thought these cars don’t like boost over a certain hp range ?

Great kill.

modding if want mid 10s, and dont want to pull any seats, etc then whipple or procharger, with exhaust would be my first mods.

From what I've seen lt1 is making 600-700whp before regapping rings. Over that is when they are doing it.

it amazes the amount of non tech he provides. Or actual knowledge of racing.
