RE: Cant i beat a 01 tran am
crazy is right.. you need atleast 50rwhp to stay in the ballpark with the T/A
and atleast another 100rwhp to hang in the vette territory
h/c/i with 4.10's and DR's and u will be smoking any bowtie (except the Z06 badged ones heh)

i think u guys are over estimating the T/A.. otherwise under estimating my car... if we way the same and u think we has 300rwph then i need a lil more rite??... im gettin it dyno tuned and what not so ill know how much i got...i dont think his that car away... i kno the vette is a good bet away but a t/a dont have that much on me does it??

^^^That is correct. My friends 01 SS put down 325rwhp w/ only SLP airbox and loudmouths. LS1's are underated from the factory. I've seen a lot of them that put down 300+rwhp and the Z28's were rated at 310 at the flywheel.

i just dont see how it could be so much faster if they are the same weight and hte t/a puts out like 300 hp or so... its got catbak on it and thats it... so i dunno mayb like 315hp if that??... but with my upgrades after i get it tuned im hoping for like 275hp... so i dont see how he could crush me with only 25-40more hp... and a 75shot of nitrous should get me rite up there if not past... i dunno mayb im missing sumthing but thats just how im thinking... i heard the kid doesnt like to race.. but he floors his far every time he leave the tech building so who knows... i gotta school with a lotta vette and camaro loving hecks... so a T/A is bascially the same thing... i was goin to try and hold down for hte stangs but i didnt think i would be as far behind as u guess are acting.... and with new tires and gears i figured i could take him

hrmmm....
i have beat stock LS1's with exhaust with my car. I got beat by a white SS once that had exhaust gears and lip and zip tie mod. I have never ever seen a stock LS1 go any lower then a 13.43 and that one had exhuast. They are not that freaking mean. You all are all scared!
Just run him man and work on your launching before hand. I think you can take him. The T/A's weigh more then SS's too. If the LS1 is cammed yuou better be cammed. I think you got a chance. Just put on some DR's, take out spare tire and unhook front sway bar and dont run him anymore then a 1/4 mile. G/L
flame me please.
