^ yeah. When I see a TT car that has been converted over to single, I naturally assume it will be pretty mean (unless its a Supra, then its only mean if you are a dyno, lol.)

The thing us LS1 guys laugh about is that they have 1300 PEAK! whp. Where as the LS1 guys with a lot less still lay the smack down on them because by the time the Supra spools up the LS1 is already gone.

My friend, Mike's civic would be a great match for him too I bet. I know it would have ass-pummeled the ZX in that vid BIGTIME.

Over 1200hp for almost 2000rpm's doesn't sound bad to me. Not usuable, but it's not exactly going to be slow because of "peaky" power.

Take a 7.0 with a blower on it and have IT put down 1300peak hp and see how the two compare at the strip.
