I'm sorry but it does not add up, and I handed a WRX its *** up and down the freeway a month ago not an STI with the wing but a WRX nonetheless. Either there was something wrong with his L (the one you raced) or the one I raced was definitely not stock.
The one you raced prolly wasnt stock.. You should be around 14.5-14.7 i would think .. so a stock lighting wouldnt put to much of a beating on you.. IMO

My buddies old 99 lightning ran a 13.0 @ 104 with only intake and exhaust. Of course this was with cooler weather but none the less thats still a respectable time.

In the heat he could only pull off 13.9 - 13.7's @ like 99 or 100 mph.

Here is a vid in "mexico" of me running him when i had the stock cam, 3000 stall, full bolt on's (minus UD pulley), 4.10's, wheatleys tuning. Again all the L has is intake, and exhaust.

20 - 100


By the time my speedo was @ 100mph he had about a length/length1/2 on me.

There are some lightnings that run really well and some that don't. Kinda like every other truck in the world lol. Every lightning that i have run into runs pretty good.

Haven't ran any since i put the cam in... my buddy doesn't have the L anymore so i cannot compare. Im sure ill find some at the meet i go to... see if i can get a video going.


Like i said earlier... vids or it didn't happen

We have the same motor and Justin has street tuned mine just like yours so I guess when I hit it my truck doesn't take off hard but yours does ? It doesn't matter gear I put it in once it downshifts and floor it screams to 6K, your Tahoe weighs about 1500 lbs more than my truck your just getting carried away now, now you can run my RCSB. Good day.

You cant even acknowledge the fact we have the exact same drivetrain and exactly the same mods and my truck is lowered and and weighs a **** ton less than your Tahoe, and then you actually try telling me how hard your Tahoe pulls like I don't have a ******* Blackbear tune ? Since your from Texas why dont you post this story up on rgvperformancetrucks.net with some of quickest trucks in the US including Flaco's and see what they say. The only person who agreed that this happened in this entire thread knows you like a buddy and lives in the same town as you. Maybe they put a throttle body spacer on at the factory and you didn't even know it then I would believe you LOL And quit replying back defending your 3.42 gears and all this 2nd gear bullshit next week will hear you got new tires and beat an SRT8 Charger

Did that bring enough ? Post a video or STFU.
