Mine has been great on street and track. Mine performed great at the hpde I took it to in November.

I also have the ls1 with ls6 intake manifold. Puts down 340rwhp.

Did you get a torque #?

Great thread! I've thought greatly about an LSx FD but ended up with an 08 z51 Vette. Love these engines After about 6 months of ownership I still don't see much need to modify it as it already pulls great in stock form and has torque everywhere; can't quite imagine what trapping 130mph and turning/handling is like in an FD chassis - my biggest gripe with the Vette is driver involvement and steering feel; and I'm sure the FD is a real blast in those regards.

I've had a MY2000 Subaru Impreza coupe with a USDM STi engine swap - it passed smog and got OK'd at the ref station (got pulled over for a modified exhaust lol) - and I live in Southern California. AFAIK as long as the engine itself is not some JDM stuff running weird smog components you will be fine - it's the main reason I went with the USDM STi motor.

I don't see any reason an LSx FD wouldn't be street legal in CA, unless I'm missing something.

At the Texas Mile a couple of months ago it did 150.9 in the 1/2, 184.8 in the mile.

185mph! That is awesome!

yeah and 129 is moving in the 1/4 to.. Wonder what the ET was.

Slow. We (builder/PO and myself) weren't launching it hard. 2.05 60', 11.69 ET. With appropriate tires and someone who knows how to drive, could be in the 10s at 130+, I think...

I don't have the dyno in front of me but it was around 340 as well.
