yo nastyWS6?! I was just wondering why youre getting rid of your ws6? I would definately want a '03 cobra over the ws6, but that doesnt take away from the fact that it is a badass vehicle! My friend just bought one over the weekend and man is it mean looking, powerful too! Just interested to know...

by the way, we figured out the problem w/ my horsepower losses on the dyno yesterday! The computer went nutty and just needed to be rebooted!:bash: dammit after all that trouble shooting! We will dyno it again at some point, however our estimate with the fuel and nitrous fittings i am running since that dyno are around 440 HP, and 480 TQ. hell yeah!:beer:

I am getting rid of my WS6 because I am tired of replacing the inferior parts like the rear end, bottom end, clutches, etc... So If you know of anyone looking to buy one let me know, Mine has a freshly built forged bottom end, and is still in very good condition.

I was wondering the same thing. A 384 hp machine is no slouch, but if its anything like my Pontiac (yes, I was once on the dark side) was, it is or will be a rattle trap.

The 384 rwhp was NA and with some tuning problems. It would have made 400+ RWHP. But did break 520 RWHP on the N2O.

Shadow : you got the rattle trap part of it right.

I loved my Pontiac when it was new, but at about the 15k mile mark it started showing its true colors, rattles started appearing. By the time I unloaded it at a little over 100k, it was really annoying. I have found most corvettes are the same way. A buddy has a 96 with 11k miles on it (he rides his motorcycle most of the time) and its turned into a rattletrap.

Yeah the vette's are the same way too. Same Terrible design that for whatever reason sounds like it falls apart over time.
