Pretty much stock.
Man I wonder what I'm gonna put down
How does the muffler sound?

Yeah, that wasn't pretty... And I didn't have my camera ready. Of course...

Did it do any damage? I saw your car being pulled in right when I left.

Sounds like you need some serious tuning, too.

How does the muffler sound?
About gadzillion times better than stock!!! Thanks for such a good deal!

I have SS tips on their way, too, so I'll finally get it looking to my liking.

We turned his rotors and replaced the rear pads w/ some PF pads. Now he won't need rear brakes for a good while.... LOL Sorry about that again dude.


Get that exhaust leak fixed as well as the misfire taken care of, then you should be around 290 or so.. Possibly more


And to those that made it out... We appreciate it! Thanks for bearing w/ us through the heat .

None local.. only a few from Houston, but the numbers were pretty close actually... A few hp higher on ours, but they've added a couple mods.

Had a couple stock '01 WS6's, just had mufflers/catbacks, put out just over 330rwhp.. DAYUMN!!!

So that's what it was. That shouldn't be too hard to take care of.

Good luck!

1851 Jupiter... Closest cross street is Campbell. Basically from I-20 - You'd have to make your way out/up to Central Expressway ~ 75... spur 820(I think?) to loop 12 to 35 to 635 would prolly be the quickest way.

Take 75 north to Campbell.. Make a right, and then another right on Jupiter.

I had a blast, never been to a dyno before. Shawn and the rest of the gang up there are very cool. I'm very happy with my results: 384 rwhp 354 rwtq., and it was still climbing when knock retard killed the run. Did that LS1 camaro w/the 110 speedlimt ever get to do a nitrous run and what was the n/a top pull for the day?

Just wanted to say Great Job! to guys with Kwik Kar. For an extremely hot day, they were working their butts off. For me the most impressive run was the bone stock Lightning. Again great job guys. I hope you do it again soon so I can get my car on the dyno again. I was hard to watch everyone run their cars with mine on the rack next to the dyno.

I think the last run was w/nitrous but he only got something like 30-40hp more out of it.

At least when I left (around 4pm) I think you were still the highest N/A car.

Again kudos to the guys for putting up such a cool event!
