I just raced a fully modded WS6 trans am and pulled on him by 3 car legnths from a roll and a dig!! This thing sounded badass and was catless. I am just shocked and happy right now! I mean I'm stock and im running with modded chevy's insane. I love my E55.

From the factory they are low13.x cars so our cars should def rip one apart. Depending on what was done to it who know though...

Johncy2000

it was one of those yellow special editions ones. Also I'm sure it had most of the bolt ons: Intake, exhaust straight pipes, ECU, and maybe headers and heads. Do they have an LS1? By the way evolved, I miss my Evo badly. Had a gt3076 .82 A.R and made 400whp conservative on meth and 1000cc injectors.

Nice! By chance did you talk with MBtek about installing your mods?

OE Tuning plans on coming to the bay area soon, do you plan on getting in?

Johncy2000

Santa Rosa's a little too far for me. I talked to (ASP) Vlad and he is a really nice person. I greatly appriciate your referral though Alan! I'm getting a package deal with EC but still don't know weather to tune my car through Jerry or Jeremy. I'm gonna spend more if I go with Jeremy but I don't know the differences between OE and EC tuning.

bassn_07

...no worries. Good luck with who ever you go with! If you decide to go with OE Tuning just let us know. Either way, maybe you could meet us at the track when Jeremy comes and test your new found power. I'm sure we'll have a few stage 1 guys to play with.

Johncy2000

When's the next track meet? I'm down but Feb 5 is a ways. Gonna start practicing at Weds night drags at infinion. I wonder what my new found power will feel like. Just beat a muscle car and my confidence is way high right now. lol Do you know how much Jeremy will charge when he is here?

E55Dimon

what special edition ones lol?
your garrett 30r spooled early it seems like, and u should've pulled either way. Who did your tune?

Johncy2000

There is a yellow collectors edition they made the last year and it had tribal graphics on the side.

I had full spool by 3800rpm with ported stock exhaust manifold. EIP racing in San Jose did my tune. I know I could have made more power but I was only at 25psi. Could have turned it upto 32psi. lol

skratch77

Ahh I loveeee modded evo's mu good friend had a fully built gt35r that would scare the crap out of me.made 520whp on pump and ran high tens all day

GHAZAN

they were LS1 with 325hp probably closer to 350 underrated for the corvette with exhaust being only difference perf wise

Johncy2000

damn I didnt go with a 35r cuz i would spool at like 5000 lol. But wow 520hp and 10s all day is highly respectable. Stock block?

Johncy2000

Wow now im really happy I beat this because it sounded like it had the works.

What is your definition of a "fully modified" WS6?

RobertG

It doesnt have to be fully modified to be loud
My LS-1 TA has SLP exhaust that is loud and believe me it's far from fully modified, I know better not to fool around with an e-55

ELITE_KOV

Exactly what I was thinking ... a 'loud' exhaust on a WS6 is not an indication of fully modded.

Fully modded to me would be: heads, cam, aftermarket headers back to aftermarket exhaust, tune etc.

And if that WS6 was indeed that sort of modded, you wouldn't be pulling 3 cars on him that easy unless he can't drive for his life or you have some mods (i.e. not stock). Didn't you just install the pulley etc.? If so , this story is believable.

WS6s are known to trap 109, some even 110, bone stock to the tires. With the aforementioned mods, they are easily stock E55 territory.

E55Dimon

Yeah, I had a 35R on mine and holy late spool, killed the fun of the car for the daily driving but when it spooled - it spooled haha.
Miss her too..

Jakpro1

What is it about the sound of that WS6?? Incredible sounding Chev monster!

Great kill!

Johncy2000

This guy could drive and it seemed like he was pissed while he was driving lol. I think it was modified because everytime he would pump the gas, his front end would lift up a lot. My theory is of hes gonna put catless straight pipes, he's gonna do atleast intake and ECU which is good for about 420 hp. I think

skratch77

it spooled around 4800rpm but the engine was built to redline around 9k so once it built boost it was an animal.

Ill ask him next time I see him,I think the engine was all redone.Im looking for his youtube video of ics in ct dynoing it with there custom tune.

Johncy2000

Ya the power was insane just having 400 hp felt more like 550 because it only weighed like 2700 lbs for the rs version I had with no abs, radio, and manual locks and windows lol

Heres a couple pics of mine:

Congrats! These things are beasts and the beauty is nobody sees them coming!

soulezoo

Congrats, but be careful. You'll get excited at beating a muscle car then get doors blown off by a 4 ton diesel pickup...it happens.

Evolved8

Evo's are great man. Mine is making around 56X AWHP with a 35R. It fully spools around 3,800 4k belive it or not Its a monster. Next best thing to the E55. Ill throw up some pictures here soon.
