Actually supercharged are pretty similar performance wise to a stock gtp. once modified you'll have no preoblem beating them. Turbocharged though is another story. i get smoked constantly by stock turbo ss's!!!

Well of course with as many mods as you have listed, i would keep up with alot more cars than i have been. im talkin about i've put only lik $300 performance wise in my car. And that only because my intake from K&N was about $220. My tune, u-bend delete, and resonator delete only took about $80 tops from my wallet. on another note another car that has surprised me is the new turbocharged mazda3....

Not many GP's run 14.4 stock. Overall I would say SS/SC's are def faster stock vs stock with a GTP.

For one they dyno higher that us.

How many stock SS/SC's do you see running mid to low 14's? Not that many. 90% of people out there can't drive. I've also seen mid 14 second stock GTP's...it isn't that uncommon.

So im only running light mods...for now, on my 2001 GTP. Yet i've beat on more than one occasion srt-4's, g-35's, 350zs, mustang gts (pre 05') etc. but i get smoked by diesel trucks, cobalt ss's, and modified mazdas. WTF!!!

you must race the kids that have stock skittles and think they are fast lol i raced a 02 4.6 mustang a couple nights ago and beat him by a car. raced a slowbalt a week after i got my skittle and he didnt have a chance. im only running 12 psi, spike 14.
 


The turbo cobalts have a no-lift-shift feature which makes it easy enough for an unexperienced driver to put power to the ground.
 


Only bad thing about the SS/TC is that you can't really "slam" the gears...it only likes to be easily changed...its funky. Like you can in a 1G DSM...slamming 2nd turns the wipers on LOL

if you cant beat people without slamming gears then your car isnt fast enough. if you can walk away from people and still lose a few feet when shifting then you are doing it right.
 


You slam gears in your Subaru cuz it isn't fast enough...I would in my 'Balt if I could.

Don't lie TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
 
i do it all the time. i have to otherwise the car wont go anywhere. also, if i keep slamming gears eventually ill strip one and then i get to upgrade to straight cut gears and have a whiney transmission that will take the power of a blower.
