RE: ss camaro
what all do you have done to your car? just hit me with a email, i always try to help people out we have to many guys in the dsm ranks that think they god and are just plain rude. or people want to charge everybody for everything they tell them. we need more people that just love these cars and want to see them fast. thats why its so hard to get a big meet anymore. the biggest one i have been to here in okc, there was 14 turbo dsm's it was nice. but again people are just plain rude. lol i will help all the can.

RE: ss camaro
I started off with a 5.0 mustang, good amount of mods. (dad has a '70 440 6-pack challenger) so im kinda in a racing family; nowhere near a hick, but i have an interest in detriot american muscle. Anyways, i know some peopel with SS camaro's, WS6 trans am's... and from a start whooping one of those is quite an accomplishment. I had 512 gears in my 5.0, and SS stock has 323 i believe, thus making them dangerous from the take off, but thats it... they are cars made for the 1/4 mile...sure they have some power past that, but not much...so if your gonna race one, do it from a rolling start, and in the long run imported cars naturally have the top end speed

i ran the 12.9 at 21psi. i could have turned it up to 23 or 24 and hit a low 12. i just did not want to push it right now, but yea i do need to have my car tunned that would help out alot.just wish there was a awd dyno around here close. i will be running 11s pretty soon.

RE: ss camaro
No dought stock LS1's are quick and pretty comon- maybe thats why others use them as a measuring tool when it comes to quickness in this modern era?
I am not really into Mitsubishi's but I have a hard time believing a car that runs 12.9 at 21PSI of boost can get into the low 12's with an increase of 2-3 PSI. I would venture to guess at a 12.7 -12.8 depending upon how maxed out that turbo is?
This is my first post on this forum. I am a turbo Dodge guy but I really like what I have seen and heard of the EVO's. Mike

the best part about the ls1 f-bodys are their top speed which is past 155 probably around 165-170 and most 4 cylinders top out before that. they also don't slow down until they top out. you have to love the ls1.

LS1s are one amazing motor though

RE: ss camaro
yep but I still can't wait to install my nitrous then it will be real fast. its only a 150 shot but over the summer when my forged 383 goes in I can continue to run the nitrous on top of that.
also our speed limiter is at 168 but even that can be changed. Heck at 140mph i was only at about 3500 RPM in 6th gear still 3k rpm left too.
