Its a really tight ride and I know it would eat up a new ZL1 Camaro as I just drove one of those recently but I would equate it to a heads/cam C6 Z06. This engine revs quick! Its not uncommon to hit the recall on the tach and see 6300 rpm! But once the boost hits in second it just winds up so fast its almost a race to balance being pushed in the seat, checking for cars up ahead, and jumping off the throttle. Id have to say if I can hook, this car it should be good for low 11s. Id really like to turn it up to 12 lbs and leave it there. I also need to program in the rev limiter to 5800 rpm!

My original 74 GTO wieght around 3,400 with a 3.42 gear and a turbo 400 trans with a stock converter the engine was a 455 with a crane fireball cam the heads were stock and a stock. It had a small b & m 174 street charger, the car ran the best of 10.89, I never ran more then 9 lbs of boost!
