A crossover pipe would help get a few extra hp but not a big difference in the feel, and ponyboy was right, about 270 without a tune. You didn't say if he had bigger injectors or a re calibrated MAF and a bigger fuel pump, if he doesn't have all that stuff expect power output to be significantly lower.

Yeah, his car has those mods, its gutted, 4 10 rear end gear, short throw shifter, skinnies up front with cheater slick in the back. its most defa quick car and I think it would be a good race. I drive a 02 t/a full bolt ons, and nitto drs. He prolly take me due to gearing and traction. dang it lol.

If you have a bolt on LS1 he might be in for more of a fight than you'd think. In the S/S section we have here, we have quite a few stock and stockish LS1s in basement 13s and high 12s. With full bolt ons and DRs if you can drive the car right I can see mid to low 12s for your car.

Not trying to be cocky, but I am a really good driver.But, His car does weigh ALOT less... Fiberglass hood,No backseats, no stereo,no AC,light weight rims up front... I think he has the edge!! but idk we well see, were both planning on goin to the track one nite, so maybe if i out tree him and get a good 60ft ill get em lol. Well atleast I hope I do because he's still talking trash!!
