hp loss
Went to a small show this weekend. Didnt drive the vette so I most likely looked like some fat slob that knows nuthin about cars. Talked to a c5 owner who told me he had a LPE setup (head and cams with headers) . It was a a4, and he told me it had 550 hp, with 525 at the wheels. To me this sounds a little streched. The guy had a dear in the headlights look when I told him I had a c5, with a blower, gears, and this and that I would love to see his dyno sheet. Hmm, no sheet to back that up. Car did not sound like it had much of a cam....he had to be pullin my leg.

I never meant that I was a know it all. But I do know a little more than most and kinda enjoy it when some pull the truth a little farther that it should be. What I meant, is that you should not brag until you know you can bull**** the guy you are talkin too....lol
