Last night I ran into a 5.0, and he actually got a jump on me from a dig because I wasn't paying attention. My SS was still able to pull in him and pass him and continue to pull away. I have experienced this more then once as well. All I have on my SS is a Magnaflow Competition exhaust. Are the 5.0s overrated or is the weight dropped from the mufflers being gone making that much of a difference needed to out run a 5.0?
