We know how to go fast. But we want to do it on a stock trim car. To show the capabilities of a bone stock car with very little $$$ spend.

LS200, Pm me details about your E85 kit.... I'm ready to pull the trigger.
I like the way you think about going fast on a little spent. I could see MILD bolt-on converter cars running 10.5s
How much alcohol content is the tune showing on these pulls?
RGT you can for sure mill the factory castings, but your only getting about 12.1 out of them with the head gasket selections we have available at the moment.

P.S. I do tunes as well, look me up on Hp tuners (Ben Charles), love E85.
