cammed gto

After running at redline, best run was a 8.88 at 86mph 2.2 60ft. anyways track was about to close and i talked to this gto owner its his girlfriends car but he mods it, he said it has bolt-ons and a small cam. its a ls2 gto well we get on the highway and he was driving his trailblazer ss and his gf was driving hers, we get up to 65 and shes not really a racer but its automatic so all u gotta do is floor it anyways i told her to go and i was gunna go off the downshift so i hear it downshift and i hit it. were even me inching then it shifts and drops back, i NLS in to 4th and pulled it about a car and a half up to 130mph.
looked good i didnt think i was gunna beat it cuz of the cam.

Sorry I call BS, I ran a bolted LS2 and im more modded than you (according to your sig) and he beat me by about 1/2 car and he wasnt even cammed, just bolt-ons and I think a tune.

just cuz u have more bolt-ons dont make u faster and i got walked by a headers, intake, tune ls2 gto before aswell and most gtos run different but the guy claimed the tune on it kinda sucks. never know i might have a factory freak.

Regardless of their mods, a properly running/driven LS2 GTO with bolt-ons and a cam should walk you pretty hard. I think that's pretty much what they are trying to say.

i agree but it didnt. i dunno what bolt-ons tho it was loud so i know exhaust for sure maybe just had exhuast and a cam that wouldnt run that good and i did say a small cam right? it was like a one step up from stock wasnt that big at all had a good lope tho.

What is your reasoning behind this? I have a DP, MD, CP, tune and a drop-in, you have a POS intake and a tune that is the same as min so im sure I have more power than you do.

pretty sure my SRI has 15hp over ur drop in easy and the cutout is better than a muffler delete and dp in my opinion so i prob gained if not more power than u there and ur CP isnt giving u **** dude prob like 2hp and 2 tq not worried about that so no ur not.

ROFL 15 HP with a SRI, I gained 6 HP with my CP. You probably lost power with your intake and my buddy didnt gain **** with his cutout open on the dyno.

Yeah you guys are talking about SRI's and having more power and stuff like that but all that he said was he beat a GTO so either say awesome or keep the negitive thoughts, questions, etc. out.

There is no way he beat a legit bolted and cammed LS2, my buddies put down 431 whp and 400 some wtq, I simply called him out on it.

ur buddy prob had a big cam and way more bolt-ons. this one had a very small cam so prob gained small numbers and like i said it didnt have that many mods prob even had the stock intake which i doubt but still yes i did beat it.

This has already been stated, and he admits he should have lost to a properly setup car. There are a few things that make this plausible:

Girl driver
Unknown mods
Girl driver
Not all cammed cars run correctly or are even set up correctly.
