I have a few buddies with bolt on c5 and c6 vettes. The guy with the c5 makes 415 rwhp(no nos). So no I do not believe a full bolt on vette makes 360rwhp.

Nice kills. I too am surprised the 350z TT didn't put up more of a fight. Do you have any idea what kit he was running? The GReddy TT out of the box is only 5psi, and doesn't put out anywhere near 400rwhp. Tell him to get it properly tuned, up the boost, and get back to you :thumbsup:

Im not sure what kit, he has a digi-boost controller and was running 8psi, said he made 460 on 8 pounds, and 400 at 6. He was running 8 when we raced, sometimes a car with a better powerband will just beat a higher HP car that is making all it's power way up top over a short period of rpm.

Exactly, my car was making more HP/TQ then that 350Z all the way untill he was redlining every gear, he would gain a little and as soon as he shifted I went right back to pulling away from him, my buddies vortech stang is the same way, it has a peaky *** powerband that is very short, whereas my LS1 has a very flat curve that can pull from any rpm range.

Most 350z owners make between 380-420rwhp with 6-7 psi of boost with no further mods and to pull on one by 3-4 cars is BS.

Screw you and your ricer rhetoric/propaganda. I'll take his 401RWHP all motor engine verses your boosted 6 banger any day of the week.

Now this is an ls1 with heads and cam with 4.10 gears vs a 350z at 9psi. This was not even close, so I still dont see how you pulled one by 4-5 cars.

25psi, you do know some heads and cam cars are weaker than others? some can make 380 rwhp, others can approach 500 rwhp. Just like some turbo 350Zs will only make 380rwhp, and others will approach 500 rwhp. I've got a buddy with a 350Z and he previously had a 98 Z28, Ive heard alot about them. HE knows that he would barely edge me out unless he does engine work.
so with your 462 rwhp car you're only trapping 114-116? Thats weak for the amount of power you put down. Theres cam only LS1s that would obliterate you. Hell my LT1 would have ran with you. What the hell kind of LS1s do you race? do they pull plug wires off? I would get waxed by alot of LS1s and I had a pretty quick car.

No, I trapped at 114 with the standard 6.5 psi kit with no further mods. I haven't ran it with my exhaust,plenum spacer, larger down pipes and 10psi of boost. I'm guessing I should be around the 122mph range.
