Default WALK DOGGY!

I had my first race since the vortech install. I am rolling down the street about 45 to 50 and notice a LS1 T/A riding my a$$. It was damn loud, I could here his exhaust from behind me! Anyway the road splits into two lanes, he pulls into the right lane and instantly hammers it. He pulled hard and was coming up fast to fly by me, I drop into third and hit it. I pulled instantly side by side, and steadily pulled about three cars up to 100. As I was going by the expression on his face was great! I slow down, and as he pulls up he instantly says "what kind of charger you got on that and how many lbs." I tell him and he says "pretty good", I ask him about his mods and without answering he pulls into the gas station. He didn't seem too happy, and I even complimented him on his car? Oh well, maybe he was still in shock?

Good kill, especially from those speeds. How many #'s are you running? I'm guessing a fair bit plus lots of bolt ons. What year GT you have? 99+? Ever ran it? Have a list of mods? Pics, vids, anything?

Its a 93with too many mods to list, and it is about 8lbs. at 5000 rpm. I posted pics of all my rides in one of 2000si's threads, I think it was titled something like MF's official post a pic of your ride. I havent had it to the track, **** I still haven't had it dyno tuned

98 I have nothing but mad respect for LS1's also, I had a 95 T/A LT1 4L60E though[]. Ram air T/A's give me wood, me want one reeeaaal bad! Trust me dude I know not to be pokin LS1's with a stick unless I come packin.


Obsolete i start making pressure about 2500 to 3000 and it keeps building to my rev limter, I have it set at 6000 on the digital 6. I think my belt is slipping though?
