Can a Supercharged V6 Firebird Beat a LS1 on the Track?

Hey you filthy animals, Jacob was able to put down some good power numbers and track times in his supercharged V6 Firebird.

    Interesting. 1/8 mile = 9.3s @ 77 mph. For comparison, my stock 1998 pontiac grand prix GTP with the 3.8L supercharged ran 9.4s at 73 mph. My stock 2020 Honda Accord 2.0T best run is 8.9 at 82 mph, which is considered a modern sleeper. My stock 2018 Camaro SS ran a 7.81 at 92 mph. Keep up the build!

    Auto cars build boost and hold it better plus have an easier time getting traction, but a stock 98 gtp Grand Prix’s best 1/4 is gonna be low 15’s. It’s why most people don’t compare or even care for 1/8 miles times. Look at the old late 80’s early 90’s mustang 5.0’s. 300 lbs of torque was getting them into the high 7’s low 8’s in the 1/8 but they were barely getting into the high 14’s in the 1/4 because they had such a low 215-225 crank top end. Thats why all these new boosted gt500’s and hellcats are all auto’s. There quicker!! I miss my 2000 gtp!! Is yours modified or still stock??

    "He barely got me" LOL. 7 tenths is a decent amount, especially when you consider he is stock vs your pretty well moddified car

    That’s what I’m hoping for, maybe add meth injection since e85 isn’t an option round here and then pulley down some more and probably match or beat stock ls1 numbers. Especially with a good tire and better launch on it

    ​@@6ON6Firebird that is a sick setup! I always wondered about doing this! Glad to see that I wasn't the only crazy person out there but 12- 15 years ago there was not nearly enough aftermarket support attainable to try it.
