So a guy wants to run my 2014 GT Premium in his 2004 Corvette.

He just started installing a Nitrous Outlet Plate, Dual Stage kit and I have no idea how big of a shot he's planning to run. He said he's just gonna spray the shit out of it and hope for the best. He doesn't have a dyno tune, but he has a handheld he said he's gonna pull timing with. :shrug:
NOTE: His car is not a Z06.

I've got a NX Plate Kit on my 2014, running a 125 shot and tuned of course. It pulls extremely hard but I don't have any track times. I have stock Pirelli's and just axle backs, no other power adders except nitrous.

What do you think will be the outcome, it will be a roll race.


This may be the wrong forum to post this in, if so, sorry in advance :)

May be kind of close depending upon what he's spraying on both stages. If he was just spraying a single stage, you'd take him no problem.

Traction will determine the outcome. He who hooks first, takes the checkered flag

Let us know the outcome sounds like a fun race. However he is playing with fire only using his programmer to pull timing.

How low of a roll? If you can get him in the 40mph range you should be able to get him. If you can get a dig race his ass is grass.

So a lower roll will be better? I've got 3.31's but when I'm spraying, I pull for days. I raced a 521 whp civic hatch that weighed 1900 at a 60 roll and put 2 cars on him easy.

So he's not going to properly dyno tune his car?

You'll win when he blows his car up. Sounds like some red neck jerry rigging of a nitrous kit there by him.

No dyno tune, no email tune. Just pulling timing with a handheld and using a 2 stage nitrous outlet plate.

so you put two cars on a 520whp 1900 lbs car... you know there is a little issue that is most common with fwd cars... its called no traction. LOL if you think that you will beat a 520whp 1900lbs civic you are delusional. anyways I know that this is a ford forum and all but the ls1 motor was once what the coyote is today but the only difference is that the corvette about 500lbs lighter. i would run it anyways but i wouldn't bet any money on who will win. i would bet my car on that civic that it would put about 10 bus lengths on both of you guys as soon as it gets traction at around 80-90mph assuming that the hp numbers were the result of some ricer math.

Lmao... Steves hatch vs. Carson mustang - YouTube

No traction? You must not have read, it was from a 60 roll. He was on ET's too. Shut up and sit down.
