Default ls motors are the best

I just ran at the track today with my crx and I almost hit my goal of 11 but fell short with a 12.1 @ 115mph with a shitty 60ft of 1.97. I also ran 118mph but missed third and ran 12.3. The amazing part is that the motor is competly stock with a stock head running 16 pounds of boost and a 35 shot of nitrious. I tuned the car for about a half hour with only a autometer a/f ratio gauge to aide with. Next week hopefully I will hook with a low 1.8 60 fts like I usually do and break into the 11's. The car also weighed 2425 pounds with driver.

We have about 25 or so passes on this motor at similair boost levels. I cross my fingures everytime the car runs down the track.

st00pid tuned a completely stock LS turbo hatch using a butt-dyno -- 11.6@119 this weekend. Just because you can't do it doesn't mean it can't be done.

Edit: Oh yeah, and that car is using an "inferior" LS tranny. Food for thought -- it's only inferior if you're not making enough power

How much does stoopids car weigh? I really dont care if I blow up the car. I have many back up motors. I am pulling the motor out next week if it is blown up or not. I have a motor tore down that I am shipping of to get sleeved for next year and I have a fully built head. I am also putting on a T-66 with a sfp manifold and I am keeping the car street. The car has a dragIII manifold and a t3-to4e and rev hard piping and intercooler. the rest of the mods are in my signiture.
