I was commenting on what Mygoatbites had said, pertaining to the 6spds and people not knowing how to shift em. As far as you racing an auto and winning, congrats..With it being an auto, there is always that chance that he was outside of his, shifting powerband, if you will. With an auto there are certain speeds/rpm's that the car will be better suited to launch from. It might have been a slightly different story from 20 or 25, but then he may lose traction fairly bad Eh, who knows...Nice win though..

 

he wanted the 30 roll so i guess that is were he can still downshift into first i no my bro's z28 could get in first from like almost 40

 

With the 3.46 gearing the GTO was dumb for going from a 30mph roll. It may downshift but it will be at the very top of 1st and will shift back into 2nd a split second later.

A race from 25mph would have been a different story.

 

Nice kill man. I killed my first GTO last weekend.

Keep up the good work. Nicely moded 06 and up GTOs are very tough.

 

just like a race from 50 for me would have i was in second the beginning of it. his car would not have come close if he was close to stock he was putting down 280's i put down 250's with a heat soaked blower and coolant that was 214* ON 16 PSI I NORMALLY RUN 20+ he never had a chance

 

bump.....

 

oh you're just asking for it

 

i had to after seeing all the debate its funny when i posted this was before everyone started going crazy with gto threads. This was before red2.4 had his gto and when cody had his and they both were cool with the kill.

 

so have you dynoed since you found your lost boost?

 

nope i will go back once i get my tune worked out it is still being a bitch but i have not worked on it ina few days. But 11.5 afr and 19* timing should net me 270's i would hope. The old dyno was my car heatsoaked so bad and on stock exhuast lol.

 

i would still believe the kil , you pulled an aut 04 gto with a catback, thats honestly a 13.8-14.0 second car and to top it off you were rolling when you started , i definately believe the kill , but i would still pull you in MY gto

 

Mark my words though i will be the first ss/sc to use the heaton to break 300whp without juice

you still stock i think it would be a good race

 

no im not , but you might be able to stay even with a stock 6 speed 6.0 GTO

 

you don't need a 2.5 to break 300. im sure there is a couple cars runnin around now that are over 300, just haven't dynoed yet

 

i know i don't you could do it with a smaller pulley and the right tune. tq is kinda fun though

yeah thats what i was thinking but we will see only racing at the strip from now on so i might have a tough time

 

hell im doing rollin burn outs with a 2.8
lol!!!

i want to go smaller, and yet, i don't. it's a conflict. easy power. or satisfying power
hmmmmmmmmm

 

all i have to say is the guys with the faster times run smaller pulleys in most cases

 

that is, untill the cams came about

 

thats true but we will see what happens with my car all i can say is i have some ideas.... good ones lol

 

300 at the wheels should put you next to a LS2 M6 from a roll until about a 100, dig not so much with out alot of traction help. 270-280 at the wheels will net you about a 2 car loss from 40ish to a hair over a 100. How do i know? Raced japeatr in my car when I was bone stock. Just a little FYI. I would love to see your times (more like trap speeds since traction will be hard to come by) when you get to 300. Very impressive if done on the stock blower. Get some full exhaust BTW!

my car would do over 300 on his dyno then lol i have a few more mods

 

The EATON would be just fine even past 300hp as long as cooling increases with addition of boost.

Eatons may not be equal to a Lysholm when it comes to efficency but it is overdriving without over cooling that makes problems.

 

yeah i got that cooling part taken care of
