Why would anyone want to? Maybe Jay Leno would do it, he has the money for that.

Yes, do a search. There has been several V6 rides running below stock SS numbers.

Reason for the question is i have this ahole of a neighbor who bought a 2010 ss n pretty much is rubbing it in. Like most v6 owners i couldn't afford the v8 at the time. I love my v6. But would love to beat this ahole or even get close enough to make him sweat. I have minor mods, knn intake, trifecta tune, vmax tb, black isolator, mrt 2.0. Thinking of nos but i am very nervous about it.

But, who cares what your neighbor thinks. You own a badass car, thats all that matters, theres going to be people will bigger, badder cars your whole life, are you going to keep looking over the fence to beat your neighbor? What if your other neighbor gets a new GT500 are you going to but a ZL1 and mod it to beat that? Just be happy with what you can afford, because the v6 is better than 80% of any other car on the road |

NOS is like a smoking hot girl who might have an STD. You know you want to hit it, but you are afraid of the consequences.

1. Yes
2. With the money to make it happen, why not just get an SS? 3. Who cares anyway? |

OP, it sounds like your neighbor would still be an ahole whether or not your car is faster or not. Sounds like he is just trying to get under your skin just ignore him and he will go away=)

I sure do hope your next door neighbor isn't a C5 member. If so you might have a bigger problem than just HP and TQ. Jus Sayn

Neighbors will be neighbors. My neighbors bro told me that my SS is slow as he has beaten one before with his stock bmw. Never got the opurtunity to shut em up because his car got t-boned.
