Ok, my friend has a WS6 2001,auto, with about 50k on it, stock. I have a GMPP Stage 2. What do I need to beat him off the line. I have the g85 package also. I am sick and tired of being beat by him.
Without nitrous and meth.

Thanks, Tvor

 

Intake, full exhaust (header, dp, 2.5" exhaust), smaller pulley take your pic (2.9 or below), VERY good tune, and meth and maybe... if you are a damn good driver and he sucks!

 

A Zo6

 

your never gonna beat him from a dig. now from say a 40 mph roll maybe with everything that was stated above.

 

RWD > FWD from a dig

 

those cars run anywhere between 13.1 to 13.4 average...

you will need some sort of traction mods, prolly axles(so yours dont break), and drag radials,

O yeah, smaller pulley, full exhaust, cooling mods, intake, tune, as stated above....

 

Actually, you won't need thousands upon thousands to beat him. Start with traction/suspension mods, axles, and good tires. Once that is said and done, then concentrate on performance and cooling mods. You will be surprised as to what times you can achieve with little performance mods and decent traction fixes.

On another note, how bald are his tires??

 

You will lose.

 

pull a few of his spark plugs

 

LOL^^^ W/ an auto he will be able to easily cut a 1.8 60 with street tires. Good luck

 

The car ...

His tires are mega bald. When used to go out drinking, we woulddo dounuts in the parking lot.

 

sounds safe

 

Yup you aren't going to beat him.

My buddy's WS6 auto ran a 13.1 stock.

 

borrow jk's vette

 

HIS TIRES ARE BALD!! That will help alot if you know how to launch your car, not saying you will win, but this WILL help you out.

 

Nah it won't

 

drag radials. pushed by the hand of god, hopes and prayers.

 

Hey now, if dude is spinning like crazy, then he might be able to hang while he's spinning till....Hmmm...maybe second gear.

 

Learn to launch your car. If i can do this to an 06 sti

you can beat a ls1. lower your tire pressure, practice your launces, and you should be well on your way.
BTW,
my 2.1 60'
to his 1.9 60'

 

Post your time slip pls.

damn good launch

 

An LS1 will trap anywhere from 2-4mph higher then an STI

 

Yeah right. He's stock besides stage 2. Even if he out launches the WS6 it's gonna rape him up top.

 

I did not think there was an auto WS6. I was under the impression they were all 6-speeds....? Just like the cobalt SS/SC, no automatic, only 5-speeds

 

Nope.

1998-2002 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am WS6
"The V8-powered Pontiac Firebird will always be remembered for leaving the stench of burning rubber at every traffic light. The Firebird Trans Am has the one of the highest horsepower-per-dollar ratio ever - a ratio beaten only by the new supercharged Mustang Cobra. And in WS6 trim, it could pretty much go head-to-head with 75-grand Porsche 911s at the dragstrip. No wonder the Firebird became a cult classic by the time it was discontinued at the end of 2002, along with its Camaro twin.

Available in coupe or convertible form, the Pontiac Firebird Trans Am came standard with a 310 hp V8 engine derived from the Corvette LS1 small block. The Trans Am WS6 is a higher trim level, tuned by F-Body tuners SLP, which added a Ram Air cold air intake, hood scoop and 15 more horses. The WS6 package is also available on the Formula, which is essentially a stripped-down version of the Trans Am. The loaded Trans Am came with an electric driver's seat, rear spoiler, unique front bumper and removable roof panels on the coupe, in addition to the Formula's high-speed tires, sporty suspension and 10-speaker stereo. Transmission choices were a four-speed automatic and a six-speed manual in which both fifth and sixth gears were overdrive. SLP also offered a Firehawk version with an optional exhaust system that bumped up horsepower to 335 hp. Traction control, ABS and dual airbags are standard on all models."
