S14 VS Camaro SS

[GT500916]

yea lol, guess who won this one?? Ofcourse i lost.. but it was worth the fight... First me and him got to 100mph+ i was in 4th and was gonna shift to 5th but decided to cool it , there were a few cars out on the road...

Then me and him pulled up to a light we talked for a sec, light turned green and we both punched it, i kept up with him in 1st for a few because i got the torque and lighter car and he has to much torque and havier car lol... then shifted in second and he started to pull away, i was gonna shift to third but he already had my by about 2 cars so it was fun while it lasted hahah...

then another Z28 pulled out being all loud like they are are and im all "GOSH DARNIT!!! WHERE IS MY TURBO WHEN I NEED IT!!" I hope i meet that SS again when i do get a turbo...

Next light i pulled up to him i rilled down my window... and he was all looking light hes cool and stuff hahaha and im all "atleast i get better gas mileage!!" haha he got a smile on his face and he knew he just got owned, and he knows he will get owned if i had a turbo!!!...

Turbo Soon!! woohoo

or course you got wasted by a camaro SS, their 1/4 mile times are like 13.6 stock, good fight tho. Why did you by header when ur going to get a turbo? just wondering, what kind of turbo and accsessories are you going to get?

well right now a header is an option because i wont get a turbo till sometime next year, and im sure ill be able to sell the header on ebay for some few bucks and get some money back... its no big deal, i figured why not do the whole exhaust not just half... and then just get a downpipe when a get a turbo and ill be good to go...

dont spend any money on the n/a. just save up for the turbo. trust me.

you'll probably just squeak by him with a turbo upgrade.

turbo won't beat em either. Camaro SS's get high 13s stock, you will have to do more than a turbo to get high 13s

a few comments on this thread:



Camaro SS can run low 13's, not high 13's... they usually get tested in stock form to an agreeable 13.3 1/4 mile time, and I would also agree with that from what I've seen LS1's running at Moroso dragstrip.

I highly doubt you raced a real LS1 SS Camaro, it was probably a v6 with SS badges, cause he would have waisted you a lot worse then 2 car lengths by the top of 3rd gear, it would probably do that in 1st gear against a ka24de with I/H/E. Those bitches launch hard, thats always an advantage of the v8 versus the tuned import.

haha it was a V8 and i asked him what he does in 1/4 and he said 13.5 and he said hes stock, it was an SS, and i never got in 3rd gear, so he beat me by 2 cars already when i was still in 2nd lol... they are known for burning out to much because of alot of Hp and torque, i know if i would have kept going to 3rd gear and all he would have been at the next stop light waiting already ahah..

well im not exactly spending any money on n/a engine if you think about it? the only thing i wont use on the turbo engine is my header, everything else ill be using on my turbo set up. The only other thing i might get a pulley kit, which i can use on the turbo engine, and the cams out of a 91 240, wich i cant use on the turbo engine as well...

im not going for just a turbo, i tell you that ill be picking up another KA engine from a junk yard and strip it. I will do the internals, head work, all the fun stuff, im not going to just throw a turbo on my stock engine and hope to smoke people, ill put a turbo on my turbo set up engine and blow everyones doors off lol..

my goal is 400whp and hopefully run 12s at some 15 psi or something, dont know yet, but my goal is pretty high....

guy relax, i only keep repeating myself a lot is because people keep missing what i have siad in other threads about turbo and this and that, so they ask same questions, its not a prob, i dont get all steamed up like some people... just calm down, dont be so hard on yourself...

"I highly doubt you raced a real LS1 SS Camaro, it was probably a v6 with SS badges, cause he would have waisted you a lot worse then 2 car lengths by the top of 3rd gear,"

If it was a v6, he wouldve smoked him, i know.

[johnnyboy5]

a turbo on a ka... prolly. an sr-t with fmic.... no.

on the highway the sr has amazing gearing and would put an ss down.


even if it does do low 13's, lets say 13.3's... it's doing 13.3's at 102xx, and im doing 13.4's at almost 107xx. from a highway roll its toast. even from a dead stop it's going to be just about dead even up till 3rd gear when i'd start pulling.

im not sure a ka-t has enough power to do that unless it's a bigger turbo than a t25.

nope not the 3.8 liter, maybe the 3.4. 3.8 F-bodies get 15.4 sec 1/4 mile stock. 240s get like 16s stock.

And GT500 can you resize your sig? That thing is huge
