if i spent 15K on a "muscle" car i would expect it to go AT LEAST that fast. terminators go 110+ stock, weigh more then a vert F body, should they get a cookie too?

so says rice boy. one of these days you'll be able to beat stock z28 camaros. would you then have something to live for?

95% muscle cars in "the muscle car era" would not trap 107mph.

im not asking a cookie you clown i simply posted the videos.

i didn't buy the car to be the fastest possible, and a SVT cobra mustang typicaly costs about 10k more than a z28 camaro

i am pretty happy about the 107.56 trap speed. no induction modifications, just the exhaust.

the convertible adds 300-400lbs over the hardtop :/

yea maybe you should've.

i ran 13.32 with less than .1% of your modifications.

horray for you!!!! :1


does having an engine more than 2x the size of his count as more than 2x his mods?

Good times for a vert, get some bigger/stickier rears and a ported LS6. Not sure what years came with it stock, but decent upgrade I hear.

no it doesn't. do you understand the concept of supercharging?

before you go nutz using a turbocharger is "supercharging"

maby not reliably (or even more than 1 time) but it can and has been done with either a turbo and some boost or one of those magice cheater nawsss bottles
i built for a budy an 89fox mustan (5.0L like 210hp or somthing stock) he bought for $800 threw in a $600 250hp shot of nitrous and $150 for more braided stainless lines and more jets and solenoid so there was a second stage (to make arround 500additional hp) threw on some 10inch slicks (i think the were mt 28x10x15's and were radials, street legal) for arround $250 (craigslist find) and a $35 shift kit and $50 trans brake (craigslist find) so arround 1k in performance and $800 in a car
1st run- all motor,t-brake 14.3@88mph with a 2.3-60' (launched about 3500rpm)
2nd run-hit nitrous at about the 60' line (1 stage) 13.34@104 2.24-60' (launched at 4k, all following are launched at 4k)
3rd run-nitrous launch 13.1@ 109 2.5-60' (bogged on launch because to much fuel not enough nitrous)
4th run-everything (both stages launched, but at 2500rpm) 11.43@ 118 with a 1.98 60' and 1 wheel about 6inches in the air for arroun 15ft
would have run better with traction bars and bigger tires also trans was starting to slip (there would be a run 5 but i blew up launching, i should have run high 10's at arround 130)

moral, unless you are willing to pay to do it right (or kinda the right way) you will pay in the end
