    Question Me Vs. Shelby GT500?

    I know the new Shelby GT500 makes a very conservative 500hp. Just wondering if I could take one out?

    Ok, my car's under the knife right now, It's an A4 LS1 Camaro. Mod list:

    -383 Stroker Kit
    -Vig. 3600 Stall
    -TRex Cam
    -Forged Internals
    -3.73 Gears
    -Full Bolt Ons
    -SFC's, KYB AGX's, Boxed LCA's

    I think you could take him... race him and find out. Even if you lose, you still paid a ton less to have a car that performs pretty close to the gt500

    Awesome, thanks guys. This is actually an older guy that is reliving his childhood days so he went out, grabbed a GT500, and he's racing everything in sight.

    Is this only because it's forced induction? I've heard turbo's & blower's don't "run out of breath" at their top end...

    Dude you would smoke one, from a dig they are 12.6-low 13 second cars. From a roll they got some power but not like a stroker would.

    So this car isn't built yet, and you want to race the old man?

    Watchout, with an exhaust, pulley, porting the blower and gears that GT500 is a low 10 car...

    It makes a substancial difference but not that 50something HP....maybe 10-15...which is decently high for just a filter
