Met up with some buddies last night, my friend with his evo 8 (full bolt-ons and ecu reflash) wanted to run me. we went from about a 40 roll. Beat him by about 3 cars. Then later that night at the car meet a guy in an older Z06 (flip up headlights LS6 engine, long tube headers, cams, no cats, full exhaust, intake said he made about 430rwhp) went from 40-140. kept up till about 100mph and then he pulled me by about 2-3 cars. I didnt expect to win but I didnt expect id stay with him as long as I did.

 

and the evo was spiking 30psi and holding 25. I was running 13psi

 

Nice kills, but correct me if I'm wrong- didn't C5 Z06's come with an LS1?

 

cant correct you cuz im not sure. He said the ls1 and the ls6 have the same bottom end. Its the heads that are different. he said he had upgraded heads, valves, springs, and cams. maybe he put the ls6 heads on his engine. I dont know, but either way he said he had an ls6....

oh and I didnt beat the corvette. he beat me.

 

your mods would be nice. and dont say stock twins.

 

99 twins
stock ecu with split second additional injector controller.

greddy 2row fmic
koyo rad
hks intakes
m2 down pipe
megan racing midpipe catless
racing beat single cat back
split second additional inj controller w/ 2 extra 750cc injectors. (increase fuel as boost increases runs a constant 10.5-11.2 afr under load)
13 psi

 

nope, the C5 Z06's came with the LS6 engine.

New C6 Z06's have an LS7.

 

its shocking to hear that u stayed with a low11second car like that. i am puzzled. at 13psi u have a low 12second car at best......on a great run.

 

he said he spun 2nd and part of third. so that might have been to my advantage. either way I was next to him till about 100. the he left me pretty fast. he had about 3 cars at 140.

 

sounds like u have a nice running fd. congrats! sorry if it seemed like i was second guessing you as its rare to hear about a good running fd these days. noone spends the time to dial things in....they slap **** together then complain or buy a pos in the first place. thats all i read about on here......i guess i am alittle (or alot) bitter.

 

Nice run, you held pretty close from what it sounds like. At about 100, the vette comes alive. I believe that the 02-05 Z06 had the LS6, but i believe that the 01 had the LS1 with a different intake. Might have still been labled LS6, but meh.

Anyways, nice run, one day youll get that kill.
