And are you being sarcastic about the 350Z putting down those numbers?

That was gay. Like I said, I'm not in the mood to argue or even debate. Leave whoever 25PSI is out of this. You said NEAR stock 350Z. Maybe at 25 PSI it would be.

I'm just saying that 500RWHP is "much" or atleast IMO. You're entitled to yours.

Yes i agree, any car that can trap 120+ is fast in my book.

Unfortunately, that's becoming typical on this forum.

PWORLD....he is joking with you.

I dont see why people like 95_formula post in the thread if he is just going to try and keep the argument going. KEEP IT ON TOPIC.


KRAB.......definately a nice kill. I would love to run a c5 Z let alone beat one!

I think 400 rwhp is the beginning of having a respectable ride while 500 rwhp will get most peoples respect..

You guys gotta remember..Theirs LOTS of cars out their who dont even break 400's with FI set ups..

Lots of cars made that cant even break 300 rwhp without everything being nearly fully built..

500 rwhp on an average 3500 pounds sports car is going to trap every bit of 125 mph and beat 99% of the stock vehicles on the road and 80% of the modified ones..

That's weird, those number in your sig seem on the low side for the mods you had. Unless of course, you didn't have longtubes and exhaust, which would make sense then. BTW, love your current car. I'm hoping to get one a little after I get my degree.

jebuzws6: I don't think he was scared seeing that his car puts down ~90rwhp more than my car. He just didn't feel like racing I guess. I'm positive he would have taken me if he did though.

Yea i didnt have long tubes and exhaust..So thats why I only made 378 rwhp with the LS6 heads and 224/224...

Plus Im an auto...But man from a 70 mph punch that was a nice set up...

But yea i could edge out the stock C5Z06's at the track by 1-2 tenths..So your car is running good as hell to take out a cammed one. Congradulations

I went unbeaten in my Ported Eaton for a year of street racing, even outran a Viper w/ NOS. I do agree with what was meant though, in any group now, 500RWHP is like..........AND. 600+ with 130+ MPH traps are the norm for street cars. Say what you will, 03-04 Cobras helped PUSH us all to mod past 500whp.

Turbos are going to change ALL this too.

I would think a cammed Z06 would walk all over a mild H/C Fbody no? Cars should be even or so in power but just about every other advantage going to the Z06 including weight. Oh well, sh*t happens on the street!

I would say a cammed Z06 would be about even speed-wise with a mild cam/heads F-bod. I would give the edge to the Z06 at high speeds.
