only bad thing about the gto's is the small rear wheel openings. cant get some 28" tires in there.[:@]

 

Not to hijack, but "rsw007", how do you only have 225rwhp, but run 12's? And with an automatic too? Very nice.

"Fat Nick", sounds like a nice car you have there, cant wait to here that thing in the vids. Why wouldnt "Sidewayz" be putting down more power, he has 400hp, so shouldnt that be like 365 or so to the wheels? And dont he have some mods too?

 

Dyno numbers don't mean **** at the track... It's all about the set up, and how efficient the car is...

 

True, but I'm sure his 430+rwhp would beat "Sidewayz", if he really is only pushin 335 to the wheels. You can have 500rwhp and loose to someone with 250whp, if the 500rwhp car is on street tires and cant hook for ****, and the 250whp car has DR's and can grip it and rip it, than if thats the case, hp dont mean sh*t. But I'm sure "Fat Nick"s car is bomb and can run some pretty awesome times, I'm guessing high 11's atleast. I'm I right Nick?

 

that would be assuming nick can drive. but then again since he is going to teach 98 and sidewayz about cars, one can only assume he can teach all how to drive as well.

 

My thoughts exactly. A dyno is nothing more than a tool. Niick, is'nt this your first real fast car? I am sure you did the cam swap and all the other work yourself right? I assume this cause you are going to "teach us all a thing or two".
BTW what does your car run again? I know 98lS1 goes to the track quite a bit, yea it's only an 1/8th mile but it's not his fault there are no 1/4 mile tracks near him. Sidewayz goes to the track all the time.

 

I certainly hope a cam/bolt on car will beat a bone stock car. Personally I 'd be looking for at least mid 11's with that much power, but what do I know

 

i agree i went 11.95@109 with only 282rwhp. its got alot to fo with 60ft. my 225rwhp 12 second passes were with 1.69 60 fts.

 

Wow...the highest dyno'ing GTO...

on a mustang site...what an accomplishment.

JD, surely someone as accomplished as nick does all of his work himself. Hell, ive changed a cam, and i have no where near those great dyno numbers....ive never even been to a dyno, just the track, but that is beside the point.

the bottom line is that dyno numbers mean nothing...unless you own a supra or terminator....but we shouldnt give nick a hard time, after all, he does have SO much work done to that GTO, that he must have done himself, and he is the most intelligent person on this site...

 

The highest dynoing GTO is only 439 whp? My old setup would have hit that range if my motor hadn't lost compression on the dyno, and that's at all 4 wheels and on a 4 banger

Or were you saying that you have the highest dynoing GTO on this website?
