Your dyno numbers are not terribly off if you factor in drivetrain loss. You need to keep in mind..you already have the heaviest, slowest Camaro in the convertible.

All that being said, a stock Camaro with a good driver can run those times in the 13's. If you are putting down almost 500 rwhp, and running 13's...you either have 1000lbs of lead in your trunk, you are doing something wrong like leaving the traction control on, or you simply are not driving the car right. If the car can put down the power on a dyno, it can put it down at the track..so either it id driver error, traction, crappy track..or something. Not SLP's fault however if the car is otherwise mechanically fine. To get a mid 11 out the car you will need to drive it like you stole it without regards to your clutch and so forth. Also, the moves you put on your Sky are not gonna work on a car as different as a Camaro is.

I remember back in my GTO days..I had an automatic GTO and would roll up on the street tires with an intake and headers, and run low 13's all day long. This was compared to M6 drivers, who would have drag tired and skinny's and cams running mid 13's because they could not drive their car.
