It's kinda a way of saying I accomplished a goal
I know what you mean. I told everyone who knew me back in 2006 that this car would be mine if it was ever produced. I'm sentimental with a lot of things and I'm sure I'll miss this car when I do get rid of it, but I also get bored with things and feel the itch to get something new. That's why I wouldn't be surprised if I traded my car in within the next couple years.

What are you running in the quarter? And how big a bottle have you got?

I think he has hit low 13s or high 12s, but I'm not 100% sure. He's running either a 75 or 100 shot.

I know, I'm a big help with all of my assumptions..

I'm currently the fastest v6 in las vegas, that I know of. And I talk to a lot of shops/people at the track. lol

And that's with a tune that isn't dialed in yet. still having issues with my car when running nitrous. i believe its a timing or solenoid issue. Fastest i've run in the 1/4 on street tires so far is 13.8, with a DA of over 3000. I think corrected it was low 13's. It's the only time i've run with nitrous. I know i can do a lot better. And i have the standard 10lb bottle, pushing 100shot.

Goal is to get my car working right with the nitrous, and then go up to 125shot. I should be right at 400rwhp at that point. if not a tad more.

I'm going to get mine as fast as I can without a tune-- I don't want to mess with my computer 'til the warranty's up. When I buy a sixth gen I'm going to turn this one into a beast of a weekend fun car. I never intend to sell it.

you can do 75shot of nitrous with no tune. best bang for the buck right there.

I already have all the bolt-on's you can get for the v6 camaro. waiting on ported intake manifold to come out.

Warranty? What's that? Use this one as your beater and DD when you get the 6th and turn the 6th into the beast. It's going to be on a lighter platform and will take less power to make it fast.

and tuning the 6th gen should be a whole lot easier.
