2012 Camaro V6 Modded vs Stock 2012 Camaro SS

Is it possible with a 2012 Camaro v6 automatic with a cold air and axle back pushing around 350 horsepower to beat a stock Camaro SS automatic with a small head start from a dig?

Buddy i own an SS and a V6 camaro. The power difference is substantial even if the V6 is modded.
The only way you would be able to compete with an SS is with a supercharger or turbo on that V6.
Remember, the SS has 426hp.

CAI alone isn't going to net 27hp gain. Full bolts on with tune may help but going FI is the only way you'll really beat a stock SS, assuming driver skills.

Your putting around 263 to the ground, where a stock SS (auto) is about 320-330 and a manual is about 360-370.

Lol you'll be lucky to break 13's with full bolt ons. SS auto cars run 13.0-13.7 stock.

NO! This sounds like the guy around here who said his bolt on 12 V6 was making 400 HP and should run the same times as an l99 LMAO. I think he ran low 9s in the 1/8th lol

Not with a SC or TT under the hood. The SS just pulls harder....

Your getting maybe an extra 10 - 15 HP at most with the intake and exhaust....not 27.

To get the LFX at 350+ you need intake, exhaust, high flow cats, and tune
