Now that I think about it I guess you're right (2 cars not ugly). Forgot to mention the guy thought he had this one in the bag. Before the race he tells me how he beat his dad's 08 GT by a car and he's running neck and neck with his buddies 06 BMW M3 both are auto tho (don't really know if that makes much of a diff). Man the car is running real good and after this race it's really making me wonder should I just buy the new trick flow heads or get the S/C.
It would not surprise me if he beat/ran with those two cars and then lost to you.
I'm curious too. I'm a full bolt on minus headers with stage 2 heads, and comp 268's and I only put down 260rwhp (I'm an auto, with a gear too).
I'm sure ur around 300rwhp. The Cams gained me 16rwhp peak and lost 2ft lbs of torque, but I gained through the rpm rangs (as much as 3x rwhp and 40ft lbs of torque).
You have a nice car there soldier.
Hey thxs for the compliment man. Once I get it running the way that I want it gonna get dynoed. Got a huge exhaust leak that's pising me off. Waiting for my tune from Breenspeed(for the cams).

With all your mods and the power you should be putting down, I would have thought you would have raped him by alot more. A stage 2 SS/SC is capable of hanging with mid to low 13 second cars from a roll. After I order my DP for my Cobalt SS/TC, I hope to get some DR's and hit Bowling Green up sometime this Spring or Summer, I'm looking for a 12.8 or so with just a few bolt ons, tune and DR's.
I'd hafta say it's all in the tune. If you have cams and no tune for them that's not doing you any favors at all...... and why the hell do I never get anyone that wants to race me on the street? only bigass trucks rev at me

Hey man need to come to Fort leonardwood. As soon as you come off the military reservation it's like a 8 mile three lane road. I've had guys from caravans to monteros that wanna race. Yeah gonna get the tune. Once I get it the car should run alot better. Looking to get to low 13's at the track.
