Default Trans ams blow

ok they dont but compared to a 02 prochargrged z06 vette they do well my cars in the middle of a engine rebuild cause #7 pistion decided to take a dump on me piece of crap . well my buddy has a 1999 white a4 t/a with a lid, cut out, and a flowmaster muffler. so were crusing on a big road by our house and a blue z06 rips by the other way so we rip a u turn. we fianally catch up to him and get next to him and we both know what will happen but we figure why not. we pull up next to it and we catch a light and i go whats in it just full exhaust , he points to the hood im like huh? hes like procharged and revs it im like o **** even more of an *** rape. he agress to go off the light keep in mind hes on street tires so hes like im going to spin like a bitch. light turns green my buddy punches it all i keep hearing is the procharger wind up and his tires spinning, i guess he finally caught traction in 3rd cause at 100 he flew by us like we were in park. we both did a thumbs up and went our ways. after hearing and seeing that thing i dont even wanna look at my car i want a vette

Supercharged c5 Z's are no joke. Very quick, and fast. Catch him on a 100 degree day after he's been hot rodding a bit and you might hafe a chance. Good DEATH to a far superior car.

Tough luck.

It's your cars fault your mostly b0lt-on and completely NA with 0 suspension.

Have you seen TranZam's 408 turbo trans am making like 800hp+ put like 100+ cars on the SRT-10 viper from a roll? I wonder how his car would do vs an 02' procharged z06.

Thats one trans am that certainly doesn't blow.

Sorry had to exaggerate a bit . Talking about getting left like being "in park". It wasn't even close.
