a lude beat a LS1 SS

h23power · Mar 27, 2001

Well this sat me and some import guys(4 preludes,2ttRX-7s, 1 turbo MR2 a 3 series BMW, a GSR) decided to go out to the races. The races up here they go from like a 20 roll. But n*e ways there is an ss I rooled up too. He looks at me like his sh!t doesnt stink and I look at him like I got am another ricer that he gets to talk to his V8 buddies about, WELL NOT THIS TIME hehe. Well he revs it up then I do the same. I drop it he honks on the third honk we go. WE were side by side during 2 gear I shift in 3rd gear I started to pull on him a-lil then he quits. I beat him by about a finder. I dont give a damn though hell its an ss. He looks at me like he just $h!tted in his pants, and gives me a thumbs up sign. we ended up racing again and it was a lil closer I belive that I won again but it was too close to tell.
I wasnt suprised about the outcome. Since my newest mod on my car I have been able to shut down a 5.0 cobra and LT1s(beat one so bad I got in his lane) an tubo civic si, I raced another SS before and I hung with him for a while but he started to pull on me around 70-80mph. so I knew that I could roll with one. But later on that day I raced a bad ass rx-7 that had a computur and exaulst on it and I hung with him for a while then he pulled on me.

Hey, I was reading your post at SHO and now I see another post in H-A.net. I am trying to reply your post at SHO, but takes too long. Anyway, I believed you, cause I pulled on a SS with 8 psi. So 50 shot should do it. Becareful with NOS, it will mess up your engine faster... Good Luck

ooh so he was running 50 shots! why the heck didnt he mention that?

wait wait, so my set up with 55 shots (going 65 soon) would actually hang with a current camaro SS? PLEASE TELL ME I CAN!!!

i thought that would never be possible to even come close to an camaro SS...

A 50 shot alone won't do it, if this is a 4th gen Si.

What mods?

Is that you Derek? WUSSUP! This is Albert. It's about time you signed up here in h-a.net... nice kill btw. =P

dptkfil · Mar 27, 2001

Why wouldn't he pull on a SS with 50 shots? How come I pulled on a SS with 8 psi? Remember now mine was a Sport shift...

hey hey! someone tell me if i could pull on a SS with my 55 shots and current mods listed above in my sig!!! this is wonderful news if its true!

VeeTec · Mar 27, 2001

Because 50 h.p. on top of 160 makes 210(crank) h.p.

You'll need a lot more than that to take on an LS1.

I have no idea what his mods are so maybe he can, it would help to know though.

A 50 shot alone would drop a stock Si to mid 14's at best.

Ng Luder · Mar 27, 2001

AAAHHH!!! CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER MY QUESTION????

Buckwild · Mar 27, 2001

Seeing as how this is a kill story post, I'm going to have call Bull$hiton this until h23power comes around and posts what mods he has.

ok u know what? i just checked..

z28: 0-60 in 5.3 1/4 in 14.0
SS: 0-60 in 5.2 1/4 in 13.8

i dont even have a chance with a Z28 yet i doubt.

mustang GTs on the other hand i might...

GT: 0-60 in 6.4 1/4 in 14.6

* all of these are in manual not auto

VeeTec · Mar 27, 2001

NG Luder,

What times did you run before the nitrous?

Then maybe I could guess.

Stock 6 speed Camaro SS' run mid 13's stock. And it doesn't take much to drop them down into the 12's.

I know a guy who with only a few bolt ons, and Nitto drag radials, that ran a [email protected]

He didn't have nitrous or any internal work, and he was running on stock gearing.

An auto SS should run a high 13 to low 14 stock.

well thats the thing, i never ran for a time yet. i posted awhile back about what times i would expect and people said about 14.2 or somwhere arond there. this is the times that im basing my conclusions on. but according to what youre saying, im actually on par with the Z28? i would have never guessed...

I haven't time my car yet, but i think i run mid 13 cause i lost to my friend N/A integra GSR 1/4 car... I mean i was at his door. His Integra run low 13 and sometime high 12.
On my kill with the Camero SS, I just pulled on him like 1/2 car space from 0 to 100 mph, then we slow down...
Mustang is a piece of cake... I take them anytime.. no fun at all...

Ok....well its best to take a trip to the track for test and tune, then you will know for sure.

Its very hard to guess at what your running until you run at the track.

true... i cant wait till i get a fuel pump and wires so i can safely go up to 65 shots. then ill be more confident

but ya, back to the topic, i still dont believe a 4gen si with 50 shots can hang with a camaro SS. 50 isnt pure 50 hp anyways. and even if it was, the lude will still be struggling to keep up. myabe the SS driver wasnt all that great ???

gee...and yet...nothing from H23

come on dude....*plays the jeopardy theme*

if you don't answer before the music starts playing you're getting one massive BULLSHIZNIT call out on your boasting boootay
