Default I Beat An M6 Again!!!!!!!!!!!

Well it is official, he did not spin the tires. I asked him because I personaly did a little. This is our second race and this time we got to talk after. He has an SLP Intake lid, Borla Cat-Back, 3" Y-pipe, and LT Headers. With all of that I still wipped his ***, and he even told me that he was "ging to turn around to go get his *** because he left it a while back". All I have done to my car is Flowmaster Cat-Back, K+N Filter, Free Ram Air, and the Free Stealth Intake Mod, and I am one of the 10% with the LS6 block. I bought this car used and the original owner was a profesional car modifier so what is up? Maybe he did some internal work? It is an almost stock A4 beating a modded M6 when he griped all the way, and I didn't. WHAT THE HELL!!!

Great kill, I agree with CRGuy, sounds like you have that freak that the guy with the WS6 has... you guys are lucky, if it is the freak, I bet it'll dyno around 360 RWHP... insane...

Are you serious, 360 rwhp damn!!! As soon as I drove it I knew there was something up, it was noticibly more crisp on the throttle than the T/A I drove. It seemed that each time I gave the car a little gas the engine was getting mad it wasn't going 100+mph. I think I may have a freak. Like I said, it does have the LS6 block so it might be posible that it may make horsepower ratings closer to the corvette. The former owner was a professional car modifier, and owned a 500+hp vette, and numerous other H.O. cars. When I used my pocket dyno It rated my car at something like 410rwhp, if my 4,258lb race weight was correct. All I have to do now is race a vette for the true test!!! Maybe the heads are ported, and the number on the heads is 241 if that means anything. My friend said that he has heard about this head number before so what do you guys think is going on in there?

360rwhp sounds too high even for a factory freak. I'd guess bone stock that it would make 337-340rwhp if it were a "freak". You need to get it to the track. Don't worry about racing dyno's.

You sure? That other guy had like 359 rwhp with a lid and a catback... (Sorry I keep saying "That other guy" but I can't remember his name- just that he drove an LS1 Bird). You are right though about running it at the track, times are worth more than hp.

Your car can't weigh 4258 lbs.Not unless you weigh about 600 lbs.What Unit 213 is saying is dynos can be manipulated to give a desired result.The naked truth comes out when the last yellow lights on the tree.Your LS6 block makes no difference.A block does'nt make power.Take it to the track,timeslips mean more than dyno graphs.

BMP = Bradenton Motorsports Park (formerly known as desoto speedway). Just take I-75 south to the State Road 64 exit and head east for about 10 min. It'll be on your right. Should take you about 1/2 hour to get there from Tampa.

I know that the block makes now power, it is a question on how much power it can hold, and how good it flows. How much dose a stock 2001 Camaro SS with automatic cost(no cd changer). I went by the door weight so I honestly have no clue. I know the stock SS M6 weighs aproximatly 3,411lbs

you are lucky, i had an m6 but sold it and got an a4 this time. i hate running into cars on the highway and on the roads. it has to be at a stoplight, cuz my car will only take a m6 from a stop considering equal mods of course.
