I hear ya brother. It would be nice to make power that easy, and have our cars as they are much lighter then most.

 

some of the larger things ive done to shed weight is gutted everything behind the front seats, removed all the hvac and associated things. lightweight parts like the d/s and heads, went thru the car and removed a crap ton of miscellanious wiring, bracketry, smog and a/c, and lots of miscellanious things.

I thought when i built the car i'd be close to 400whp as well, but I made 340 with my crappy tune, and now I've got a much better one but i simply can't see a tune upping 60 horse, so i just guessed at what it is now.

 

Congrats! You did really good. My buddy has a cammed 2006 GTO with 420 rwhp, and he and i pretty much dead even as well. I have about the same rwhp as you (numbers are in my sig) but more rwtq and full weight.

 

not that u said it did just that i posted a similar vid wit similar powerd cars and the outcome was similar to this untill he went into 5th just saying

 

what do you guys think that gto would trap at in the 1/4?

 

I would think he could trap 115 pretty consistently once he got his driver mod dialed in.

 

My buddy traps 113-115, both at Milan and Lapeer.

 

Agreed. Those GTOs are heavy pigs.

 

idk man, take that thing to the track and see how it traps now.

I dont like looking at dyno numbers. your trap will tell tell you what your making.

 

100lbs heavier than a terminator... if that

at the strip my GTO weighed 3800lbs and some change with me in the car... I weighed 180ish at the time

I had the spare tire and all the equipment out of the trunk... that's about it

it's no dodge LX car, let's just put it like that
