I had no idea those things were so fast! I raced one on the way home last night and didnt get beat, but I didnt win either. We started off from about 60-which is the perfect place for startin out in 3rd-and took it up to 130 before we had to slow down because of traffic. I was behind him and hung with him the whole way but never gained on him and he never pulled farther ahead than what he was when we started. My car is still stock, his had an intake, exhaust, and a boost controller. So if you come up on one of those, be careful!

60 is not a perfect place to start in third. Shift down to 2nd, chirp the tires, run it to about 70-75, shift into third, leave otherwise close contenders about a car length back. Trust me.
Wait, sorry, I was talking about M6 F-bodies. I don't know where the sweet spots in a GTO are. My bad.

60mph isnt a place for the EVO to start out either now that I think about it. (Unless he was an MR and had a 6speed). Its usually 35-40 for 2nd gear, 50mph for 3rd and 70 for 4th... but who knows lol

Thats crazy how close the gears are in the Evo.. dont they have to be in 5th already at around 85-90?? A friend of mine with an Evo raced another friend of mines 5.0 last weekend... and he was already in 5th when the 5.0 was still in 3rd. He lost because he still can't speed shift, and he doesnt quite know how to launch it.

60 is where I shift out of 2nd, thats at 6k-ish rpms. Not gonna watch the tac that close while racin, I see it hit 6k and I shift. 60mpg in 3rd is at 3500rpms for me, so it pulls hard. Anyhoo, I dont know what gear he was in or the rpms, all I know is that car was fast.

I think you were in the right gear. Good race.
Running 2nd to 70-75 mph isnt right. I was about to race on the highway once and I was going 75 and I tried to downshift to 4th but like a ahole I missed 4th and hit 2nd..
My car over reved like crazy.

Stock Evos are no competition for stock LS1's from a roll. Its ownage, by many carlengths. Evos and STi's aren't anything special from a roll at all, they are only fast from a dig, since they can outlaunch just about anything with their AWD.
Sounds like the Evo you raced had some mods, a stock one never would have hung like that ;)

Yeah a stock one would get slaughtered by an LS1 from a roll-on. If you guys were even (depending on year) it probably had turboback exhaust, intake and a tune (300-320whp). My friend's 05 GTO walks my other friends stock EVO nicely from a 50mph roll-on. The 2006 EVOs even stock would give a much better fight from a roll than the 03-05s. They are trapping 105-107 stock.

You say the 06 Evos are trapping 105-107MPH stock?? I find that hard to believe, not to mention I've never heard of nor seen one trap that high.
The HP ratings are the same from 05-06, if they were that much faster I think Mitsubitchy would have upped the HP rating...

I didnt mean 107, 105-106 is much more common.
The IX's hp ratings ARE different. 2006 is 10HP more (276 to 286) however they are putting down 260-270awhp stock, which is 15-20whp MORE than the 2005s put down. (05s usually dyno around 250awhp stock). I dont know why Mitsu would underrate them but they sure did, being the whp is so close to the advertised crank HP. Even better, they respond much better to mods than the 03-05s. 2 guys ran 11s with just I/E/tune on 93. One of them now is going 11.5@117 on a race gas mix.
I just grabbed these off EVOm. Stock IX runs.

IX's are making more like 325 - 330 crank hp - they are seriously underrated by Mitsu.
Trapping 107 stock? Uh, I'm not so sure that's true...

Haha no way all wins :wall: Most were just bolt-on, couple stock, 1 was cammed (close race). I raced an SS with LS6 heads this weekend and pull him too, he was on stock cam though. Two of my buddies have cammed LS1s and we are a dead heat last time we raced, however both of them just got more work so I have to play catch up now! :drivin:

The ls2 GTO i raced from a roll must have been modded or my stock clutch must have been horribly slipping in 4th gear. The gto was pulling on me slowly at higher speeds. And i have more mods than the evo you raced.

I'd expect that it should pull on you, considering it has over 100 more horsepower than you car does.
What are you pushing with mods, maybe around 300HP?? Even if your car had 400HP to match the GTO, you would still lose, because the AWD system saps up much more power due to drivetrain losses.
EE1983
05-14-2006, 02:29 PM
He should have about 340-350whp. With that power, he should walk easily on an 05 GTO from a roll-on. When I had 346whp I could pull on my friends 05 GTO.
This thread is very ironic to me right now, I just raced a black 05 GTO minutes ago. 70mph roll-on and easily walked on it. :yup: Guy didnt look too happy after that :)

05-15-2006, 03:43 PM
Then i must have a horribly worn out stock clutch!! 23k on it And pushing at least 100whp over stock. When i try to launch, nothing grips at all!!! Not even when i WOT in 2nd gear!!

05-15-2006, 03:58 PM
Yeah it all depends how you take care of it. Some people burn the stock clutch out in 5k miles. Im at 50k and on the stocker with more power than you!

I've never seen a stock LS1 trap any higher than 102-104 at our track, which is pretty equal with most STis/Evos. I've seen ETs around 13.2-13.5 on drag radials. Now, I suspect that in the upper gears the LS1 is still going to pull a bit but it's far from being "ownage" by any means.

Umm no. Most LS1's are putting down between 290-310WHP stock, STI's put down about 240WHP. Thats a 50-60WHP difference, which isn't even close from a roll. Maybe the F-body guys at your track just can't drive (or maybe you're at higher elevation), but LS1's trap much higher than 102-104MPH. More like 107 to 108MPH on average.
Heres a video of an LS1 GTO with a Borla Catback vs. a Subaru STI with an exhaust and tuning. The results speak for themselves.

I'm just telling you what I've seen. The track is at 700ft, so perhaps the 3 or 4 that I've seen and a couple that I've raced are just horrible drivers. Also they are Z28s and WS6s, not newer 2004+ GTOs. :dunno: Just as some STi drivers have hit 12.9s @ 105, I've never seen it and wouldn't call it the norm. It's certainly not a slow track either as there were modded Z28s and Vettes there running low 11s and stock STis running low 13s @ over 101-103.
Seriously, I know you love your car and are frustrated that a turbo sedan with 4 doors out-handles, out-brakes, and can sometimes out-drag your beloved V8 sports car, but why are you showing me videos of a modded GTO? I could show you videos of modded STi's raping GTOs and WS6s as well. Hell, one guy with just an exhaust and ECU tuning (USDM STi) ran 12.5 @ 110mph recently. The STi is far from being rice as you like to repeatedly remind us.
Thankfully most of the people here seem to be enthusiasts and don't act like fanboys.

Frustrated?? No, not at all. Thats all great that your ugly ass 4 door sedan can out handle and outbrake my car by a few tenths of a MPH or a few feet, but I honestly don't give a shit.
I put the video up to show you that STI's don't hang with LS1's, especially not from a roll. Both cars in that video had aftermarket exhausts, and the STI had some tuning as well. The STI got the launch (expected) but the GTO caught up quickly and walked it hard. Thats how it goes, whether you like it or not.
I don't see how you think the STI is "far from being rice", its the epitomy of factory rice. Its a basic 4 door family sedan with a body kit, massive wing, turbo, and a nice fart can out back. It sounds like complete garbage, and looks like a charicature of itself. Please :rolleyes:

Uh, rice is usually attributed to something that has a ton of crap on it that isn't functional. Hood scoop, functional. Large Brembos, functional. Stupidly sticky tires (almost Rs), functional. Wing, functional. Air splitters, underbody cladding, functional. Jeez, sounds like rice to me. :tired: Fart can? The boxer engine is probably one of the nicest sounding engines in the 4 cylinder world, especially when it is opened up with a bigger exhaust.
I'm not going to pretend the STi is a pretty car but looks are subjective. The STi looks much like the WRC rally car, which looks pretty nice. The Cusco road racing versions are incredible. It's taken a bit but I've grown to like the STi's looks. Personally, I can't stand the looks of the modern Camaro. In my opinion it looks ungainly, unoriginal, and drab. The WS6 version is definitely an improvement but still far from being what I would call beautiful. The GTO is slightly better looking but still just blends in with all the other Grand Ams, GTPs, etc.
You seem more concerned about appearances than overall performance. I bought my car for one reason - to tear up autox and road courses and have a pretty quick car that is useful for other things. I can comfortably seat 3 extra people, pack the dog up in the back, handle bad weather extremely well, etc.
So what if a modded GTO (or stock 05) can blow my stock STi away in a straightline? Oh wait, I don't have to worry about those in Canada, since they aren't sold here. :lol: Either way, drag racing isn't my top priority. If it was, I would have a Cobra (or best of both worlds C6 Z06 :notworthy:.)
Anyhow, this is pointless arguing. :drivin:

How are you able to type while rubbing all the tears out of your (sniff) eyes?
Your car has an enormous, non-functional wing. It's also loaded w/ body cladding that's also non-functional. How you can possibly rip an STI for having the same things (though the STI's wing actually does something positive) is beyond me. Keep trying to justify it, though.
BTW, who insulted your car (other than you)? I mean, if you hate cars w/ cladding and spoilers you must be into some serious self-loathing since you not only drive one but you spend time in forums talking about them. You have my pity.
Oh, I drive a 300C AWD, a lightly modded Evo XIII and a '57 T-Bird. I'm about to add either a LS2 GTO or a new Vette. If I found an SS Conv that I liked I'd also consider that.

No, because they are front wheel drive and most of those aftermarket elcheapo wings weren't designed in a wind tunnel. Our cars are biased towards RWD and at speeds of over 100km/h the rear wing reduces lift.
Believe it or not, the underbody cladding cleans up the airflow passing under the car and, honestly, my car isn't a daily commuter. It regularly sees 160-200+ km/h. Obviously, this stuff won't help when autoxing. :lol: The 06 models also have a rear defuser that helps cleanup the air flow even more.

You are one very cocky newbie for just joining this month and only having 12 posts. You're the kind of kid that would randomly insult someone on the first day of school and get punched square in the face. Lucky for you this is the internet.
Despite what your jaded views are, the Trans Am and STI don't share anything in common. The T/A was designed to look exactly like it does, and the spoiler, not wing, is not in the least bit out of place or tacky. The STi is merely a factory riced out Impreza sedan, which was never meant to be a performance vehicle. Its merely a family sedan with a turbo engine and a body kit and wing. The F-Body was designed to be a mucle car from the start. Get a clue before you open your mouth and make yourself look like an idiot.

Correct me if I'm wrong (though I'm not wrong) but the T/A is an offshoot of the Formula as well as base T/A models w/ none of that stuff (and a V-6 to boot). That car, by the way, has no body cladding (ground effects) though it does have the requisite non-functional doodad on the trunk. Unless, of course, you're talking about a Firehawk (which you wish you owned). Same drivetrain, same body. Oooooh.... hurts, doesn't it? :itsok:
Time for another lesson: a spoiler is nothing more than a device to disturb the flow of air (spoiling the aerodynamics) in such a way as to push the rear of the car down to the road. Since that thing on your car isn't functional it can't properly be called a spoiler, now can it? A good place to rest your beer or Astroglide, though. :true:
Now that we've got that solved, what do you really think we should call that thing bolted to trunk? I mean, we've proved it's not a spoiler or a wing. I vote for "tail" or, better yet, "fin". :approved:

Remember, this is a LS1 board. And as far as I am concerned, we are just letting yall visit because you have nowhere else to go. Kinda like charity...think Katrina "victims".
You are not going to get welcome arms here when you drive an import:date: . Just a little FYI.

I drive both and I've owned more small-block cars than 90% of people here.
If your members make ridiculous statements wouldn't you rather they get called out? If not then the veracity of this forum is in question.
Like you said, it's your forum so have it whatever way you want it...

Partially agree, but it is a matter of respect. You are in OUR house. If you are going to eat at my table, you are going to eat what I serve. Dont bitch and insult me in my home. If you dont like it:burnout: . You gotta expect to have that flung in your face on an LS1 board.

:dunno: Toyota Tercels have a website. People with different cars always visit different sites. Reasons may vary...

The STi is merely a factory riced out Impreza sedan, which was never meant to be a performance vehicle. Its merely a family sedan with a turbo engine and a body kit and wing. The F-Body was designed to be a mucle car from the start. Get a clue before you open your mouth and make yourself look like an idiot.
Ever heard of WRC? It seems to be popular everywhere else in the world.

Lemme get this straight - a guy who drives a gold Trans Am is dissing an import because it has "a body kit" and a "massive wing"?
OMG... :lol:
Get over yourself, Wes-fan-BOY.
and there's a problem with having a gold car?
