Default lt1 vs srt4 (video inside)

well i went out and raced a friend of mine in his 05 srt4. we started at 40, i was at the bottom of second, dead spot. i didn't want to drop into first cause i ahve stock tires and it was about 40 degees out, i didn't wanna spin bad.

anyway, my mods are long tubes with true duals, intake, and ported heads. his only mod is intake. i have a shity clutch and need a tune. i had a 200lb passenger and full system he had about 120 pound passenger. here is the video sry for the poor quality it was done on my cell phone.

I'm not calling you wrong or anything, but it sounded more like 5000ish area to me. I'm not sure about how fast the tachs are on LT1 cars, but you may try shifting a little higher than normal with your setup, and you'll seriously hurt people.

Good kill, by the way.

i understand what your saying, the video is really poor quality since i hosted it with putfile. it's alot more clear, and the sound of my car and the shifts are alot faster and more clear sounding when i play it on my computer. kinda weird why the quality got worse hosting it from putfile?trust me i know where im shifting, iv'e had the car for 3 years. i have a good feel for the car.

i wanna get rid of the car, or else i would have my rev limiter bumped up a little.

Ahh, I follow ya now. At any rate, congrats on the kill... SRT 4s are no joke when they're tweaked.
