Default 3.8 camaro Pull's Bolt on C5

yah...exactly what the title says...i have always wanted to run a stock one, but 2 guys chased me down today, and it atleast had exhaust...i didnt get to talk to him after but he gave pointed at my car and gave a thumbs up and went on his way...i think he wanted to do another run but a cop was in sight driving behind us so we both went on our ways....

I was at a red light and he came up behind me. I knew he would do a run cause he flew right up on my ***...as soon as I had a pretty clear run, at a 30 drop i floored it. I saw him downshift too cause the headlights rose and he wasnt falling behind like he wasnt WOT. Then he switched the the lane along side me cause i think he had intentions that he was gonna pass me but i started the pull at 60 it seemed where my cars strong point seems to be (55-115)...I took it up to 85 then slowed down, and i started with him on my bumper and ended up pulling about a car on him..i noticed he had exhaust when he pulled up along side me again.Very nice car, clean and 2 cool guys.

If u Chase, its a Race.

never had it dynoed. But by reviewing other setups that are pretty identical to mine, they make about 360rwhp on 10psi and 400rwhp on 15psi (which i will be on soon)

Those are pretty respectable #'s for a V6. Good kill.
