Lets Compare...
I would like to see rwhp numbers vs 60' time ,1/4 mile et and mph and trans type. I think this data would be interesting to compare.
This is not about what has been done to get to the established horsepower but what has been done with the power, i.e.; et & mph and trans type.
I will start with my hardtop for an example:
350rwhp - 60' 1.73 - 12.11 @ 115.65 mph - 6 speed and with 4.10 gears-60' 1.73-11.88 @ 117.39 mph.
Thanks, Todd

Re: Lets Compare... (Jackal)
Thanks, Jacka and garyZ06!
Where are all of the 500+, 600+ and 700+ rwhp cars, don't they get run down the track too? or are those numbers just for show? :yesnod:

Re: Lets Compare... (MC TORCH RED)
MitchC and MCTORCH RED,
this is an interesting comparison, both cars have the same tran's.
MitchC has 12 more horsepower and 30 more lb ft torque, yet the et and 60' times are the same.
thanks guys keep them coming, i think these comparisons are a good public service for new Corvette owners looking to mod there car, without breaking the bank.
huh! imagine that a supporting vendor trying to help people save money, who'd a thought? :crazy:

Re: Lets Compare... (Cary)
We don't know the perf mods MitchC has whereas we do for MC TORCH RED. Could be something to do with the TConverters or other mods?
- Cary [/QUOTE]
It does not matter what his mods are, he has more rwhp/rwtq and is running the same 60' and et.

Re: Lets Compare... (West Coast Corvette)
Nice PIC & mods list :thumbs: Thought about having that has your CF SIG?
I need to go to the 1/4 track. Hoping with my mods http://www.geocities.com/magredc52001/ I will be in the mid-high 12's but I realize would do better w/HS TC but can't decide on 3000 or SY3500 for my daily driver. Besides, leaning towards a cam mod first.

Yes, it does matter to me because that way I can compare his mods to the other with the same 60' & et. to get a better idea between vendors quality.
Why not show a list of perf mods w/60' & et. anyway :confused:

Re: Lets Compare... (Cary)
Cary,
thanks i change the sig photo around every once in a while and i have used that one before.
with your mods i would guess you will run a 12.8-.9 at about 111-112 mph, i think your 60' will be your biggest hurdle, good luck! :thumbs:
