Default come help me bench race.

ok so I dont have a vette yet but I just sold my evo and am looking at purchasing a 02-03 Z06 shortly. I have a friend with a mkiv single turbo supra pushing about 450rwhp and needless to say its pretty fast. Also I will be the first to admit that me and my ego would really like to have a faster car. For comparison sake their car will pull a c6 Z06 from 70-140 by about two to three car lengths. I plan to spray on it but im not sure how much I should need to in order to pull on them from a roll? I dont want to do anything more then maybe intake and some exhaust stuff since I plan to do some track days in it and would like to learn to drive it before putting gobs of power down.

Your friend must have a very small single or running low boost. I have seen bpu++ supras close to 450.

As for your quest to pull him on the highway. Get a Z. Put long tubes and intake. 100 dry or wet and you will pull him. I am at 400rwhp in a auto and pull on my friends BPU +++ up to 110ish then he shifts to 4th and his car walks away until I hit over drive at 134 and start realing him in at about 160. This was all before I put my 3.73 gears in.

He is around 420rwhp on race and 360 on pump.

Good luck and hope he does not know how to brake boost or you may have to up the shot to 150! Remember your going to be 400 to 500lbs lighter than a supra with better aero!
