well get a good set of 18in rims under 24 lbs at least and some 3.73s and youd be in the high 13s. of course along with a cai.

I hear there are stickers you can get to increase your HP.

Do you know where I can get theses stickers and how much horsepower can I expect to gain?

Haven't seen a stock V6 run into the 13s...so sorry but unless your track is located in a place with great air and elevation, it won't happen.

That said, we've had lots of guys with bolt on/tuned V6s run into the 13s, but again, if you are running in moderate to bad Density Altitude at your track, 13s may not happen.

The GT was faster for a couple reasons. 1) less weight. 2) more torque. 3) lower geared.

If the V6 weighed what the GT did and had the same gearing they'd be running into the high 13s stock as well. Wouldn't need the extra torque to do it.

Believe it was, but he is modded. Think there is a video of it floating around here somewhere.

We have two members of the Detroit5thgen Camaro club with V6's, one in the low 13's, the other is in the 12.80's with a procharger.

The 2007 Mustang GT I traded in for it had far less horsepower and I broke 13.9 with it stock. All I want is a Camaro that can do 13.9 or mid 13's. Besides a supercharger or juice, money really isn't a problem.

Yeh..13.92 with a full trunk load and 87 octane. Seems to be a little faster now with 28k miles on it. Pretty sure I can do 13.8 with the looser engine and empty trunk. Mine is a stick. My only mods are Cold Air Intake, Mag Xpipe, axleback and Ported TB. Can ony imagine if I had headers a tune and port Intake manifold.

somebody tell me were I can get upgraded gears for my car. I am running at 14.12 with stock tires an empty trunk and half tank on 87. going to try to hit high 13s. with 94 oct and 1/4 tank of gas.

J_Vibe92 07-29-2013 03:37 AM

get smaller rims. or do 3.55 gears if auto

.....and to the "should have gotten a V8" guy (always has to be at least one who feels compelled to jump in) - you should see how many of your SS brethren are running the SAME TIMES with their SS's......due to bad launches, and not having a clue how to handle the power!! ...lol

You don't see us getting on your posts with: Wanna go fast, should have gotten a Mustang"....do ya?

Jeeez. :thumbdown: Enjoy your LS man, it's a great car, with a great motor. I love my 13 RS M6, and have owned too many Mustangs to count, including a 2011 5.0.
