The times that magazines give are done on a V box! Different ball game on the strip with proper timing.
p.s. remember, we are talking in the hands of an average punter!
i have to agree with rody
im a frequent vistor and competitor at WSID. My father and i owned a 9 sec monaro still have it but sold the engine and build a 12 sec engine
i have seen so many XR8s , Xr6s turbos , SS, clubsports that do try to break the 14 second barrier its no easy task , the only LS1s or XR6 turbos that have done it , have had work done to the engine and upgraded the intake e.g turbo or supercharger , CAPA and many other engine builder offer services to get your LS1 runnning close to the 12 sec. bracket but you have to drop close to $10 grand .
