It's not going to happen on the Camaro without a bunch of weight loss.

If a cam was enough to make the Camaro dip into the high 11's, I would be happy.

Or you could put a bunch of sweet mods on it like a leather center console cover, or painted vents or louvered tail light covers. Then, you can get your microfiber cloth out and wipe it down over... and over... and over... while your buddies stroke your ego with how nice of a car it is even though you never drive it.
Ok, I'm stereotyping. I will stop. :cool:

I didn't think it was stereotyping if it was true :lol:
Much like 4x4 owners with thousands in mods with huge lifts and tires that have never seen mud.

:confused: John ????? lol :lol:

3.91's will probably be the popular gear for the 5th gen. It is not a cheap swap, though.

With a stall that's possible. Not on the stock converter. You'll need a good 3500 stall to get this car to accelerate.

No you won't.
I bet good money you won't have to touch the tranny to go deep in the twelves.

:confused::rolleyes:
I speak from experience, Its not about hating, I used to have a 02 Auto SS, went 12.4 with a lid, converter and nittos..They need converters.. Think bout it, 3800 lbs is not easy to get moving off the line.
How much you wanna bet? Might as well make this interesting.

With a trap of 111 mph 12's stock are not only possible but very likely and given we have a dyno of a GXP putting over 410 to the wheels with just a cat back and tune. Cat back tune headers and DR's lmid to low 12's.

Well you just proved your own ass wrong.
If your 2002 WITHOUT a STALL is DEEP into the 12's, like I said, then why in the hell would a 2010+ need a converter.
I am done with you as you post crap.
I do however believe at some point, the car will need a converter, but to get into the low 12's, NOT.:5go:
Keep it up as the 54's bandwagon is on the way to prove you wrong.:lol:
And BTW, I'll bet my left MAPLE Nut, wait I don't have to as the GXP is already doing it.:thumbsup:
You comment was that you needed a stall converter to get to the mid low 12's and your 2002 wwas already there......
Go away with that contradictory dribble.:STFU:

I agree, it won't need a converter to go low 12's imo. We'll see.

I know I am a late poster on this thread (but hey, I did just sign up today:D), but there is no way in hell that C6 only had a cam:lol::lol::lol:
and if it did, Boy, did I sure waste my money on those twin turbos I have on my Vette.
Mine with 19in CCW's and KDW's ran an 11.4 @ 121.
on ET STreets I will get an 10:9 like this so called cammed only C6

A lot of people are not mentioning that this car seemed to have 3.90's out back for the rearend :thumbsup: I for one know what 3.90's will do to an Fbody however I do think there is more than what he is saying.
