Welcome Matt.


Fast? Not by your standard of fast. It's a good group of guys here. Very chill, laid back place. You're not going to find too many monster cars in the new 5.0 scene quite yet. Buying a $30k car and dumping another huge chunk of change to completely rebuild a new car that doesn't need rebuilding is kinda rare. The quicker cars around here will only be around 600-700rw. Most around the the 400rw for now since most haven't had their cars too long yet since they are new. lol.

makes most sense... 600-700 rw aint bad, thats starting to get into the fun catagory... if you dont have to pedal, it needs more power.

600rw is plenty for the street. Less breakage = more time on the road to actually enjoy your car rather than being a member of Jackstand Racing. lol.

86 was out for 6 years at 700+... it's all in the combo. It made 660 at 14 psi the day I had it running... that was only at 5400 rpm too, I think you were there at the old HPP dyno day.. Tune was so off it flooded the garage with black smoke like a gd diesel...

When you rode in the vert it was over 600... probably near 700 short shifting it... not my fault the trans is a pos, I didnt buy it.

Haha, good times. Seeing everyone run out of the dyno area because of all the smoke was hilarious!
