if he is running 13.8 stock, then he should be getting slicks or something. He ain't going to run 10's with a supercharger. He'll probably run low 13's. LOL. Just like most of the retard drivers on this forum.

Hopefully the engine starts getting tuned, on an engine dyno, within 2 weeks. I should no better at the end of this week.

He must have shitty track prep or something; those are low 13sec cars stock. Numerous people have gone 13.1-13.3 with these cars bone stock. A buddy of mine has one and its getting a blower put on right now. We are figuring it will be a low 12sec car after the blower.

SRT Challenger not that fast

What kind of leaf blower, LoL! You'll need at least 150hp and DR's to get'er into the mid 12's

These cars are not low 13 sec cars. First: they're automatics which = slow. The (M6) 6 spd stick is out soon, the stick should be a very low 13 sec car. I've seen many of these run already and they're are a 13.7 to 14 sec car. Just like a stock 06' A4 (that's automatic speak) GTO runs 14 flat stock and it is 400 lbs lighter than the Challenger SRT8 so the 25 hp difference is nothing. Gearing is a big factor too. All the mags are talking about the manual SRT Chakkenger running low 13's. In a not realistic world in terms of DA and really cool dense air, such as ATCO, a SRT CHallenger might do 13.3's . >> In a real world, realistic weather and elevation like most of us, upper 13's is the order of the day.

I tied a new Orange SRT Challenger in my new SS\TC with just a K&N drop-in, which gave me 2 more lbs of boost I might add. 13.8 at 104.

Without doing the math or looking into things you'd realize real fast that a 4300 lb car with an automatic, 425 hp\ 420 tq and sad gearing, ****-poor aerodynamics is not going anyplace very quickly. They're much bigger in person, just another barge, gas guzzler.

My buddy just got his Challenger back with the Procharger on it. The car ran 12.24 blowing the tires off the car. I don't remeber what his trap speed was though.

The car made 475rwhp on 6psi and there are no other mods on the car other than the blower.

since you 'RESEMBLE' that remark, does that make you retarded? Maybe you are considering the correct word is 'RESENT'.

Unless you meant to do this, but I dont think you did.

Good to see no one else caught this

While you are the only one that caught that, I did actually mean it simply because of my warped sense of humor, and nothing at all to do with the mentally challenged, where I would actually resent that word being used.

Isn't it though. Then again most people already know that only a retard would spend the kind of money my project car has cost.

O I know its rediculous. Just to take advantage of all the stage 3 perks ( 8k RL, 100 octane, and 50 shot ), you need:

pistons: $900
neutral balance shafts: $400
high speed valve springs: $500
N20 kit: $500
Gasket: $50
stage 3 PCM: $300
stage 2 upgrade: $900
labor: $1000

lets add that up: $4550 just to run stage 3....

And youre doing a COMPLETE engine rebuild ( swap? ). Have fun with that...

I just happened to notice this post, the a4 Ls2 GTOs are STILL mid/low 13 second cars, the m6s will hit 12s with a good driver(my friend David Moore went 12.80s with a drop in filter ONLY at MMP, on the stock tires)... now the auto LS1 cars WERE high 13/low 14 second cars, but the LS2s are good for mid 13s even with the slushbox...

Probably didn't hold the Brake & Gas while on the line and launch it. Probably just held the brake, light turned green and they then mashed the gas.

friend of mine just hit the track up in his LS1 GTO m6. 14.3 was his best time. He ran a lot of mid 14's. Driver comes into play with any car.
