Yeah I thought they did. Thats pretty damn impressive bone stock. I'd like to see what a full bolt-on ss/tc would do.

 

cmon man, don't be magazine racing. that's a hit or miss. NO ONE could ever run 13's in a ss t/c, OR they could run mid 13's. NO ONE KNOWS YET!

 

Concidering the car is rated for 14.1 stock from GM, you can immediately assume that people will get it to 13.7 with no mods at all.
Compare the original SS/SC, GM rated it in the mid-high 14s. People have been able to take it down to 14.1 with absolutely no mods, not even tires.

 

lots of assumptions in there.
and btw, i saw the ss/sc rated as low as 14.2 in mags.

13.95 maybe.
13.7? oh i think thats a bit of a fairytail.

 

it trapped at 103, it should be good for more than a 13.9

you are at 106 and ran a 13.3

 

Yea, I'm at 100 and ran a 13.6, but that doesn't mean that some joe shmoe, let's say yourself, will go to the track and bang out a mid 13.

you are making too many assumptions

 

Keep in mind that 14.1's in stock SS S/C's are rare.

Most decent drivers I've seen are mid 14's bone stock. I don't believe 14.6 was THAT much slower than the average times I've seen stockers run.

 

oh I doubt I would be able to run that fast, but that doesn't mean that the car doesn't have the potential to

 

Bry, two things.

i sent you the ECM file from the stock car rite?

if hpt would read the OS of the stage file you'd giggle almost as much as i did when i saw soem of the changes and table limits.....

p.s.
i jumped on the local civic fanboi the other day with the TSi....multiple cars instantly, he should shut up from now on.

 

Stage 2 vs SS/TC might be close in a drag race but the SS/TC will murder the Stage 2 around a track.

 

I'll bet my dinner tonight that'd I'd beat a ss t/c in a drag race. Wouldn't even be close.

Point! WHO CARES!

 

Abolutely nothing. The computer will limit your ass to 260 torque even if you have a jet engine piggybacking the LNF.

 

I agree. Both are and will continue to be great cars. If I hadn't bought the 08 SS I would have bought a used 07/06 SS. I went with the new one because of the new features and I got the 2.9% financing for 72 months. Couldn't come close to that on a used.

 

the people on the forum seem to care

 

pm me d00d. or call the cell. either one. in short. the answer is no

 

just got back from test driving the TC i love the racing seats. my dealership got 2 in last week, a black and a yellow one. i drove the yellow on. the no lift shift is pretty neat. the sales rep let me open her up a lil, he doesnt know jack about cars. i was talking to him comparing the SC and the TC and it was like talking to a girl about it. lol. really nice car over all. i love the whistle of the turbo, cant wait for my turbo to get here

 

^Agreed.

 

i'll send it tonight.

the current HPT boot loader wont read it yet...the beta's are touch and go....however i have my ways.

the stage tunes are even more out there.

32bit with a decent OS FTW

 

hmmm. if it's anything like the mustang gt maps. it might be all clicks and whistles

 

they spent good change on the current cal's, AVL and FEV make good ****.

 

sweet!

p.s. my valve train is quiet now. however. the exhaust lope is not

 

swapped the cams?

you can always use RPM and spark to ditch that lope.

 

i don't have the desire to **** with it. i know how to get rid of it. just more precise timing control. haven't swapped em yet, still runnin on 272's for now. the slp resonator made a huge difference in terms of sound. i do believe it is from the f-bod loudmouth exhaust

 

Rock the mullet!

got my head flow numbers back today....did it on the same bench as the formentioned head so i have a bench mark....and i beat'em buy a bit....the trick is in the valve seat.

 

i could have told ya that goober.
