yeah that rosty guy said he had all exzorst a cam and head upgrade and that he can dip into 11 second and it was pretty cheap, thats why he likes ls1s

my dad has a VT II ls1 and i eat him, i took my judgment of LS1s from my dads car.

Flaming......lol understated well.

I have a stock r32 prob put out 120rwkw if that....cant say i get handed my arse by really anything except other turboed cars...i mean i would get beaten by modded R8's...but i expect that since they are running 2.5 times the power and 2.5 times the capacity. They dont whoop my arse though... and as for top end...i dont think anything car really beat a force feed car. My opinion

Maybe look at your technique at driving dude

Power isn't everything.

Rotor's with relatively low power and torque can still pull some quick ETs.

Ditto for Rollas, Hondas, etc.

Ls1's advantage in a rolling start would largely be in torque. Gear selection, and revs will be your advantage.

That said, only an idiot would post on a public forum bragging about street racing.

A 13.5 quater mile should be quicker than any LS1 powered holden, and probably match any LS1 powered HSV. The bigger problem is that people fork out $70,000 for a brand new Clubsport R8, and hence the CAPA bolt on blower for $4,000 drive away seems like chicken feed. And that little supercharger makes their dyno readouts a little more worrying:

And they only get scarier from there!

Good luck with your future LS1 hunting endevours, but try and keep it off the street! I know it's tempting sometimes... I had an FPV GT baiting me on the freeway tonight (in traffic mind you) and it's soooo hard to say no in that situation! (I'm proud of me :) )

A guy at work has the Stage 2 PWR supercharger on his LS1 HSV. Estimated at around 450kW at the flywheel.

f**k it pulls....
