True, but the mod game is a never ending debate, it just goes round and round... watch this..

*slams beer down, gets all offended and starts typing really fast*

"Sure, the WS6 only has a lid and cat-back, but give the 5.0 a tune and I bet the 5.0 would walk that TA! Its only fair for them to have the same number of mods.."

J/K man.

The manual has a more aggresive set of gears than the auto.

Check the mpg numbers

Why are we still worried about the LS1?
We should be worried about the LS3.

Vtec in the Mustang > gay Ls1

BUT STRANGE HOW ONE PASSENGER MAKES SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE! I THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH THE BP OIL SPILL

Why anyone is worried is beyond me... this race is played out on paper already.

If I beat a new GT with my LS1 it's simply because I'm a better driver...the car is faster than me period.

Given the lame 1st gear that goes to 50mph and traction issues encountered around 3000rpm... I believe it is faster from a roll than dig.

Of course... from what i've seen the new 5.0 is just a damn beast so maybe there was probably driver error during that race. lol

Well we dont' see in the rolls who got the jump...i don't think a passenger would make that big a difference. But oh well. For an auto that 5.0 ran pretty damn good lol. Better then the new camaros.
