lol... your not that much faster then my G500... i hate you G55K guys lol...


side by side of a G55k to a G500 just to give an idea of how quick /fast those really are. Granted i have 33" tires which hurts a little. for the fun of it ill toss in friend C5 vette with bolt ons that i race

G55k________________________G500____________01 C5 vette
60 foot___2.090______________2.587___________ 2.271
330 feet__5.738______________7.115___________ 6.073
1/8 mile___8.871 80.6 mph____10.873 65.43 mph__9.095 @ 82.41
1000 feet__11.434___________14.158___________11.763
1/4 mile___ 13.667 @ 103______16.98 @79.00_____13.763 @ 106

The vette has intake, headers exhaust, computer work. However its a 6 speed and i dont abuse the clutch... As for the G my best pas on stock tires wasa 16.3 Sill way slow.

............the 05 G55K has been tested by Mototrend: 1/4 mile 13.2 at 107mph. Stock! Now, I wonder if it is possible to take this car to 12's with a reputable tuner.

.......I am sure Nos will do it, but I wouldn't want to try it. What I meant was that the cars does 13.2 bone stock. I wonder if with headers and a boost kit and ECu modification can shave off the renmaining 0.2 secs.

im sure it would. i think renntech and EVO sport are making 550 ish hp and over 600 lbtq in the 55 motors now. You also have to worry about the transfercase and front axles i would think.
