yea because he couldn't possibly be wrong when the documented curb weight is 3400+ lbs
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontiac...2.80.932002.29

curb weight= 3440lbs

lmao if a WS6 weighed 3100 lbs....what would that make the curb weight of an LS1 Vette??? sub 3000 lbs lmao??

Claims 3400-3500lbs

I'd believe that webpage before I believed some random fanboi

 

thats a BIG jump in tq? what all do you have done and how did you come up with that number?

 

alright beleive a website or someone holding the title

 

Those number seem high, but the tq should be alot more than the whp.

Turbo is too small, causes the car to make a lot more tq than hp.

Likewise, i'd believe a website before I started pulling random numbers out of my ass about my car as well.

Bone Stock WS6's do not weigh 3100lbs.

 

exact curb weight on the title of the car is 3156lbs, this is a 2000 ws6, completely stock except for exhaust



numbers arnt out of my ass they are straight off of the title this time i have the kid on the phone right now

 

they don't weigh that dude....the title is clearly wrong...and it wouldn't be the first time.

That curb weight is the weight of the Vette. They share the same motor....one of the advantages of the Vette over the WS6 is it's weight

 

why all the bitching and arguing?? they raced. he won. end of story. maybe the TA was a better car, maybe the TA should have beat him, but it lost. /thread

 

lol im glad the trams am lost i'd love to beat my buddy and shut him the hell up about v8s

 

ws6's arnt really that fast. i raced an auto version and through the 8th mile track i was still ahead by a 1/4 of a car. we fucked around a little bit too doing roll racing but it was on the freeway and i took off in third at high revs, he eventually started pulling on me but it wasnt by much. our cars 4th sucks

 

ikno a kid with a ss/sc with the stage 3 kit but he was running the stock pulley idky and he was right next to this almost stock ws6 from a 40 roll

 

lol WS6 stock traps as high as full bolt on SS cobalts....108-109. You guys are ecstatic about hanging with a stock car....congrats

 

i really have no problem with this guys win. I raced a C4 LT4 6spd, a modded '97 auto LT1 TA, and an auto C5 LS1 vette, and beat all three....should have only beat the C4, but i beat them all. who knows how....

 

What's wrong with V8s?

 

oh and a '95 Z28 with intake, headers back exhaust, and valvesprings(lol)

 

The reason we came up to that number is, before i dropped my cat and was just catback and tune i put down 291 WHP and 332 WTQ. Dropping the cat on this car picks up a lot, so 300 should be easily be in the range of what he is putting down.

 

i think he's just refering to the ones drivin by tools who frown upon cars simply because they have smaller engines

 

I dunno about the LT1, but the LS engines have somewhat weak valvesprings, and they are a good thing to change - even with a stock valvetrain.

 

well then that would make sense then, cause thats the only thing done to the engine itself

 

yea i dont have a problem with v8s just the ppl who think it makes themm gods just cause they have the bigger motor, i could just imagine the look on my buddies face when my little 15,000 dollar 4 banger beats his 27,000 dollar untouchable trans am

 

Now, now, lets not assume the outcome of races

 

add heads and cam....total what it takes you to compete with that...then see who's winning the "price war"

 

still the balt . anyone who pays 12k for a built head needs to be shot

 

Heads + Cam on an LS Engine is good for damn near 100 horse

 

lol thats exactly what he says hes guna do, but if thats the case i'll throw a turbo kit on the gsxr and be good to go
