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?

i've had and built several cars faster in the 1/4 than yours.

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

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.

You should have bought a TA. Everyone i see at the tracks around here are running around 12.80. 2.1 60s rwd and 245s how is the driver not the problem.

01+ ls1's have the ls6 intake manifold

what would help me now is a tune.

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
