GOT MY CAR DYNOED AT CARTEK IN GARWOOD NJ THE OTHER DAY. IT MADE 384 RWHP AND 362 FTLBS WITH THE FOLLOWING MODS-CARTEK STAGE2X CAM 224 228 DUR.@.050 581INT 588EXHT LIFT WITH A 113 LSA, ROLLMASTER DOUBLE ROLLER TIMING CHAIN, HOOKER SUPER COMPS WITH OFFROAD Y PIPE, BORLA CATBACK, ASP PULLY,GMS AIRLID K&N FILTER, MOSER 12BOLT 4.11 GEARS. I AM VERY PLEASED WITH CARTEK I INSTALLED THE CAM MYSELF AND THEY WERE EXTREMELY HELPFUL IN ANSWERING ANY QUESTIONS I HAD, THIS WAS ONEOF THE BEST SHOPS IVE EVER BEEN TO. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK OF THE NUMBERS? ANY ESTIMATIONS ON WHAT IT WILL RUN, I HAVE A M6 AND RUN ON BFG KDW WITH THE EIBACH PROKIT AGX SHOCKS. SORRY FOR THE LONG POST. :devil:

good numbers through a 12 bolt and 4.11's. :). what it should run and what you do run could be worlds apart. just take it to the track and find out.

I didnt see u have a ported TB listed so if u dont have one u should get one. Also, if its a 2000 or older model LS1 car get an LS6 intake. Didnt see yr of car or intake listed. Assumming ur an 00 or older car w/o ls6 intake & ported TB u would prolly pick up 20-25rwhp tuned. You didnt mention if it was just dynoed or dyno tuned either w/ the 384rwhp numbers.. Was the car tuned on the dyno? If not, then theres another 10-15hp in there ill bet. I see 30-40rwhp more w/ ls6 intake, ported TB, and good tuning assuming you didnt already have any of this. Either way still good #s. JMHO
With good weather/track conditions, great launching/shifting abilities, and a good set of DRs or ET streets( since you have a 12-bolt go w/ et streets or even full slicks if u want)) then mid 11s easy or low 11s w/ slicks all else being the same. that would be my guess. You only live once so have an absolute blast with it man :D :cheers:

Hmm why would the year make a difference on the gains with the ls6 intake and ported tb? If he changed the cam.. seems the changes would be the same for both cars? assuming 98-99 vs '00-02. Granted I sometimes dont know my a$$ from a hole in my head :))

01-02 cars already have LS6 intake from factory & ported TB makes gains on any year LS1 bolt-on/ cammed car/etc. I just didnt see him list portd tb or ls6 intake(since his is a 2000) as one of his mods so i suggested it, thats all

you said you "run with KDW's" so i think you'd get mid to low 12's with those tires. with slicks or DR's, you should be mid to high 11's with a good driver.
cartek rocks.
oh yeah....turn off your cap locks :)

Thanks for the responses, i should have told you i have a 2001 ss so it already has the ls6 intake but it has the stock TB, and it was dyno tuned I wouldnt of had it dynoed with out a tune because to me it would be a waste of money.

Snatch up a ported TB for $130-$150 bucks and ull prolly pick up 8rwhp. every lil bit helps. then u could get a nitrous system if they allow that in cali?
