Gears and getting 50 hp
#21
I haven't started anything yet. I just wanted opinions. Bc I don't want to go overboard either bc it's a daily driver and I have a decent commute. And my area is definitely lt friendly. And I understand gears I was just considering them for when I see my friend with his Camaro haha. Tell me more about hi flow cats. I know they just flow better, but are they louder? Any good brands? Will they work with my stingers? I know what they do but besides that I haven't found much information. And Cai and udps were on my list eventually. I've thought about cams but I'm not crazy about them. Cool for other people tho. And the more I think about lt the more money I would have to spend for installation and the rest of the setup.

Thanks! That really does help a lot. I've been considering all these things but that helps really put the list together.
If there was an award for answering a question and being helpful you would def get it. Thanks again

You can say that all you want, and while I agree its what you put to the pavement that matters, that is where all official engine horsepower ratings are taken.
Reminds me of a Top Gear episode where they put a '07 GT500 on a dyno and fussed about it only making 447hp.

I have a ignorant question (I know, again) is it the motor that dictates how much power gets to the floor, or is it the drive train/suspension in general? Such as:
Late gen supra w 1200 hp only running 12s
Or my friends 540+ wrhp 03 cobra losing every race till 3rd gear by finally hooking... ( I think hE just can't launch it properly though)
Late gen supra w 1200 hp only running 12s
Or my friends 540+ wrhp 03 cobra losing every race till 3rd gear by finally hooking... ( I think hE just can't launch it properly though)
