What's it gonna run...
#21
yup. not a whole lot of seat time. 140 miles round trip to work, so I rack up the miles fast.
I think there is more in it for sure, just not going to wait to find out, I want atleast to get exhaust soon. Don't think a axleback would shave more then a tenth, but people would argue its no longer stock. doesn't truly matter in the end.

Damn, over 8k feet. Thats tough air man, I don't think I have ever in been in elevation like that. Around here, 2k foot DA is something to bitch about, lol. Good runs though. I agree a 1.9 is about all you're going to pull off in a street tire. I managed a few high 1.8s in my current car on street radials, but being an automatic makes it much more doable than your M6..

lol, and these motors are only 302 cubic inchs. Not to pull the ricer line of talking about engine size, but the LSX's always go for size to make power, the fact the new coyote does so well, and its only 302ci is that much more impressive to me.
The dyno guy said I must have got one of the "special" cars. He showed me two dynos where a 5.0 with exhaust/tune only made 380-385 or what ever it was, and a boss only made 395-400 or so. He said mine is the highest stock one he has seen so far.
I told him it's because it barley had 50 miles on it when I got it, and I've been beating the **** out of it since then haha.
intake/tune/midpipe and axleback and we will see if it will break the 400hp mark, that would be pretty cool just for dyno numbers. ****s corrected... my real world numbers to what I'm making at this elevation probably is around 300 to the tires.

yup, Racing at this elevation is almost worthless. we will see how much more I can do on street tires. Ordered exhaust today, go back to the track and see what it will do. Doubt the axleback will even take off a tenth, but just wanna see what I can pull on street tires.

yea, i read they can sometimes hit even higher then that. I'm trying to stay a bit modest, and knowing that I rely on SAE numbers for any that look half decent, I figure I'll be around 400-415

What's scary is they're expecting something along the lines of 470-475 when they switch over to direct injection. (granted it's still speculation) But I think that's pretty got-damned impressive.

Bring back the 427ci or even 351. Ricer math says if a 302 will make 370, a 427 would make 520rwhp.
btw, new video
