Yeah theres a guy in my town talking **** after 4cyl. cars. I was wondering if my SS/SC with a GMPP S2, CAI, 2.9, catback and highflow manifold would be able to take him from a roll. Lets say 40mph-110. He has an auto vette conv 1999 (C5 anyways)

 

i dont think so my friend has an 86 vette, the official pace car and thing pulls like you wouldnt believe from dead stop up too 140

 

not very likely...but you never know

 

You'll take him since Stg 2 is so fricken sweet.

Edit: You're in Canada? I retract my statement then.

 

im not sure but i would think it would be great race. seems like a decent match up to me. make sure you get it on video. is he modded???

 

well i was looking on the web, and they only do the quarter in 13.5+. I mean I am at the very least 14 flat. From a roll, there is no need to launch and having those problems. So I thought it would be an intesting

 

completely stock. AND is auto... I mean stick only does the quarter in 13.3, so the auto has to be over 13.5 easily

 

my body had an atuo z28 camaro and that **** ran 12's all day long(with gears, hypertech and borla) so i dunno dude get it on vid and well see

 

yeah but with gears and the hypertech and borla, this one is STOCK and AUTO!! It runs 13.5's+ all day long!

 

I believe thats the LS1 motor. I've ran a LS1 Camaro SS from rolls and kept my bumper at his door all day long. Only have Stage 2 and Intake.

It will be a close race i think

 

Thanks damien, yeah I think it should get him thinking for sure!! Yeah its the LS1 motor he has!! Was the comaro SS auto or stick??

 

When you are talking about roll racing, look at trap speeds, 1/4 mile times don't matter that much. But to answer your question, he will pull away from you but race him anyway just for sh*tz and gigglez but don't be like yo, i'm going to beat you, just tell him you want to go for fun

 

Don't forget, the corvette is a lot lighter, and MORE aerodynamic, which will make it pull even harder at higher speeds

 

no no, no disrespect, not my style!! His style but not mine, but if i can put up a good fight, it might open his eyes a little

 

and their car weigh 300 pounds more and he weighs 150 more than me, so thats a total or 450 pounds more!! but they are more aerodynamic for sure!! But from a 40, i think it should be close!! NOt going to win, but closer than most would assume from a cobalt

 

Oh, i'm more than positive that he will gain respect for 4 bangers, because I as well think it will be a good race, but he's going to pull up top. Get it on video though if it goes down

 

you also have to take into effect his car is 8 years old now

 

You need to get the 2.5 with 60 lbers man, then he will be making up excuses as to why he lost

 

Man, i'll try to get it on vid!! It would be sweet to post that wouldnt it, even if it adds a 100 pounds to my car (2nd passenger) haha yeah his car is 8 y/o and is a reck/rebuilt!! Prob wont change much, but it prob doesnt help performace.

 

I would if it wouldnt void warranty, If the warranty can end, then i might go with that setup or a GMPP S3 and actually put the wet/NOS in the car

 

Just get a third car if you don't want the added weight......if it were me, I would tape it myself during it lol because i'm stupid like that but that's just me

 

yeah i could get a third car, he would be in the way, we only have like 4 lane highways here, two lane each side. Or get my dad and his car to fallow us, that would work to, but he prob wouldnt be down for this kind of stuff!

 

Yeah I hear ya

 

Race him... AND GET IT ON VIDEO!!! I think you might pull a win... Hopefully. I've beat many low 13 second cars from a roll. And the mods you are talking about are pretty similar to mine.

And Duct Tape the Camera to the Dash... that way there is no problems... No extra weight... and no shitty third car that can't keep up... like that Honda in the SS/SC - Cobra video.

 

If I am not mistaken I beleive the auto trannys in the LS1 vettes and camaros are faster by like a .10.
