Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

Previous owner has no reason to lie about anything. I told him I was gonna run it at the track and get it dynoed he said "Ok make sure to tell the forum guys "told you so"". Car was paid in cash its mine now, he has no reason to point me in the wrong direction. 430 running a 2.75 pulley mid to low 12 seconds. Not trying to argue I guess we will see come track day. (Probably getting a better intercooler and possibly upgraded cam by then.) Soon to be in the 11 second club, but still be a daily 4 door driver. Thats my goal I have the extra cash to do so and this beast is a good start. Haha

dude my car ran a 11.57 with 451 at the wheels. now explain to me your thoughts of how your numbers of 430 and 12.5 make sense? will all that instant torque you will probably run an 11.0!!!!!
 


Im more on your guys side about the #s but this guy is an older, honest man. Sold it to me for a steal because he simply had enough fun with it. Wanted a gas saver and owned it since new. He told me if i had any questions ask him... I asked him how much it was putting out and he sent me those texts. Gonna have to wait for proof currently working on getting to my water pump and its irritating me lol
 
Lets see Austons car on a 3.0, fsic, s1x, gen v, SD headers, 2.5" catback put down 32x whp iirc. On the dyno, this car seems to have less mods yet making more power? Unless I'm missing something important here that we don't know.
 
Go through the thread I took pictures of SOME of the big upgrades on both builds earlier today. Im almost postive he is claiming 430 to the engine not the wheels and im not bothering him anymore until i have a problem. But i dont know, never owned a car with this much pull too hard to guess. All I know is everyone ive ran against was in my rearview. New mustangs, modded evos a stock gto my friend owns, srt8 i ran with earlier today before I started working on my water pump.. undefeated so far.
 


Hope you run it as is since the owner claims BS #s. Don't start adding crap and changing crap to it now until you run it and get us some #s so we can say we told you so

I will probably run it as is before I do anything drastic to it.
 


You know what.. im arguing to you guys about what my car puts out, when really I know the least out of everyone on this thread appearantly. Im learning more and more everyday. Im more on your side about NOT being over 400 horses but if it is I am not complaining. I will definetly run it 0-75 in car or time slips. Everyone has to relax until I fix my water pump.

so what will you do if you run the car with the current mods and it's nowhere near what this guy says?
 


Thank you, don't take it as a beating just trying to be realistic. At the end of the day most of use have had multiple W bodys. And have a pretty good idea of what pretty much every conceivable mod combo will make. Hell the E85 one is #7 for me. If you do have trouble working on it or need anything send me a PM. I'll help anyone out that I can on the forum.

Just don't take me as a prick HAHA. (ok ok even most around here that know me would tell you otherwise!)

Edit was aimed @ the OP.
 
Hurtz by the way I didnt really get much out of that video. I havent glued my eyes to the dash while i was running it full potential lol ill show you a pull when everything is running correctly.

E85 Vs SRT8

SRT8 Charger BUSSSSSSSSSSSSSes behind me.... LOL all you hear is jayroca talking and my 2.8 pulley E85 car screaming at full tilt. BTW that was about 130mph when I went past and started to shut down........ Little hairy shutting down with stock brakes, since then ive got centric rotors and ceramic pads at least.

Your turn for some vids and dyno sheet.........

Edit 12.99 is way harder than you think.
