Default 02 GT vs. C5 vette!!!!!

i found a C5 when i was out cruising earlier and was screwing with him and he wouldnt go.. then he finally went and i went to. pulled him a car length with traction control on and spinning like a bitch... sweetness!!! haha. he had this funny look on his face that he just got beat by a GT. it was a stick too.

awsome man, im hoping to be like soon -once I get to modding. what kind of numbers are you putting down power-wise? also, a flipchip is one of those chips with diferent tunes programmed into it with a bezel switch in the console right? so you can flip a switch and be on a daily driving gas conservation tune and then flip it again and be on a more agressive tune and so on and so forth correct? are there any pros/cons to these style chips?

I love it, good kill.

the only guy Ive ever known to be a cool 'vette driver was at my old job. He had a ?'69? with the 427 jet black exterior, interior, and mostly black and chrome detailed moter bay. He said he bought it from his dad when when he was twenty and had worked on it since then. He would only race on the streets for pinks...

He could spin his 12 inch wheels going in to 4th on the freeway.

Stupid tangent. Good kill again.

im putting down 407 rwhp on my Daily Driver tune... and on my performance tune i put down 440rwhp. i ran the guy on my DD tune. ive also got a tune that is valet and has a 3k rpm rev limiter. for it to switch the tune, you have to turn the motor off and back on and then the tune is reset to the other one.. i actually dont have the bezel but you can buy one to switch tunes. ive got this little **** inside my glove box to keep it hidden.

its made by superchips. its a Superchips flipchip 4 bank chip. it can be changed from 4 different settings. you have to find someone that tunes those chips and get the person to put your car on the dyno and tune it. it cost me a total of around 450 between the tuning and chip. chip was like 275 and tuning was like 167
