Default 2005 ssr track times?

Hi guys new to the forum would like to know what my 2005 ssr 6 sped all stock will run.

And what are the hop ups that are out for it.

Would it be as fast as the tbss since the ssr is built on that frame, thus it is the same truck.

Everything I've read puts the SSR dead even to a little behind the TBSS... those SSR's are pigs... alot of weight with all the goodies on em. BTW: lets see some pics.

Listed for 51.000 I paid 40.000.

Going to be putting a super charger and 4.56 gear to start .

Put the flowmaster 40 on it sounds great finally like a hot rod.

Yes the truck is a pig wish I could make it lighter .

The truck is also my wifes weekly grocery getter

Will try to get some pics

I love mine and the first thing you should be doing is putting the MagnaCharger on it. The stock times for the 6 speed SSR are 13.89 reported by GM and the auto is the same as the TBSS as reported by GM.
