they use hardly any gas idling anyways :P

sierra 195hp-365hp but is a larger heavier truck not the same class
if anything the dakota is a canyon/cloarado competitor

here are what are in the kits
stage 1-injectors and ecu flash (takes you from 260hp to 285hp)
stage 2- upping boost from 12 to 16psi (takes you from 285hp to 335hp)stage 3 larger ic, upping boost from 16 to 21psi valve springs,and 103octane flash takes you from 335hp to 365 crank hp and it ended up making 330whp)
now it's getting a t04e 57trim turbo with witch 20-25psi should achieve the 400whp the customer wants (also it's getting meth injection so it can be re tuned for 93octane instead of having to run sunoco 103 witch is really expensive)

and since when does four psi give you 50hp with a factory turbo

Re: *OFFICIAL* Z06 ***** on GTR
Why don't they race a baseline vette against the GTR? The GTR that's coming out is just the baseline version. The V-Spec will have somewhere around 550. I think then it'll be more even with each car's highest models to toe to toe. That video looks like most of the videos on here. Taken on a cell phone at night with fingerprints all over the lens.
