And 10.5" wide rims with larger rear tires than stock. But I still don't roast them lol. I have full bolt ons and cam and got to 482rwhp so the claim on this super car of a 1le would make as much hp as me with just bolt ons?? I also believe the dyno was tampered or info was entered wrong. Btw anyone running the dyno can easily change the numbers and print them off. Not saying that's what the op has done in any way but the dyno operator could've messed up

Spinning rear tires at 70 till ya upshift into 4th at about 80 is called what?

I offered the information I am not in a position to explain it. That is why I come here, so more knowledgeable members can be dicks and throw flames.

What the heck the weight and aerodynamics has to do with the power that the engine put out ?

They can be a PMSing bunch

This sounds like something that would happen to me. Ask some questions and get bitched at more.......if you KNEW the reason would this thread be here?

I got your back out of principle

has nothing to do with be bitched at.

saying you break loose when downshifting at 70mph in a stock car is utter nonsense and a complete exaggeration.

Nah it just means you can't downshift properly.

And who are you to decide what's exaggeration or the extent of it?
