Lol, well let’s see I’m almost 850 wheel on a dynojet compared to a Hellcat that makes what low to mid 600’s? Then I’m a lot lighter, not sure why it’s sounds “excessive” ha! Been around street racing wayyyyy too long to bullshit! I had 6-700hp cars when guys thought 3-400 was fast.
Lol, I need to get my GoPro charged and back in the car. As I said it’s been so long since I’ve been able to race anyone that I took the GoPro mount and everything out of the car.
I like the meth, I don’t daily my car but I do drive it a lot. Meth is perfect since you’re not using it if your not in boost. An air fuel gauge could be a safeguard and I will add one eventually. However for now, my tuner set it up to where if my IAT’s go up over a certain threshold it will...
Thanks guys. Yea, I used to have a CTSV and it was fun but they’re too heavy. Needed a lot of power to try and compete, so sold it and got back into a Vette.
Went out tonight to see if I could find anyone to mess with. My car was hurt for a long time so it’s been a while since I’ve been able to have some fun. I’m cruising on the freeway at about 70 mph and I see some hid’s coming up, as it gets close I could tell it was a charger. Now I’m thinking...
Thanks guys! I need to get some tires for it soon otherwise it’s pointless on the street. Lol and a tuned/e85 gt500 wouldn’t be stock. It’s crazy how much hp you get from E, I may be doing the switch myself soon. I think on E I could easily be close to 900 wheel. I’d need a bit more boost but...
A few months back I had the bottom end forged, upgraded my old SI blower to the TI, added headers and switched to a dual meth nozzle. There’s a few other small things but nothing major. Took me a while to get it all broken in since the weather has been pretty crappy. All in all I’m happy with...
Lol, late to the party but seen the car in your sig...how you liking it? Funny how people mention resale and depreciation, in this category when it’s going up against Mercedes and BMW’s, have you seen the depreciation value on those? I almost bought a 740LI a few years back, it’s was 3 years old...
Might interest a few. It’s getting finished up here in the next few days, so I went by the shop and got a few videos.
It has a fully built bottom end, BTR cam, full Corsa exhaust, Vortech Ti blower, Alky meth kit and a few other small items. It’s getting the break in tune, then once I get a few...
Yea, the ECS kit and A&A are pretty comparable. I'm going to forge the bottom end, add a cam, change to a dual meth nozzle and 4-6 more psi...should put me in the low 700's to the wheels.
No offense, but can't that be said about anything then? I put a blower on my C7 and raped a stock Hellcat so now it's compareable to some shitbox? If a modded Hellcat beats a Mclaren 720 then all of a sudden that's not impressive because it's modded? What's the point of modding then? I've never...
Don't use those cheap plastic covers. Not sure why it does it but it will leave marks on your car, not scratches but they'll look like water spots and they are super hard to remove. Happened on an old Vette I had and a friends camaro.
Totally agree! I have a Vette parts business, but the only way you can survive is if you control manufacturing yourself (or have another full tim job) For me, I've always had a full time job and done this on the side. Business is actually really good, but I'd never quit my job to do this full...
I have a ton of these stories, I used to see all kind of stuff when I was younger. Every once in a while I'll still see or hear something, but I've never really felt threatened. I just think some people see this kind of stuff and some don't for whatever reason. Weird things used to happen to my...
