Exactly why he was racing a lt1 not a ls1. He didnt shift at 9k rpms and he beat the car. Unless the guy sucks really bad at driving it was a lt1.
well my VTEC starts at 4500 and i think and my power ends at about 8400 now with my tune. So i was shifting early cause i dont need to go to 9gran anymore. And i honestly dont know if i can even make it to 9K anymore.

if your supercharged on a VTSC. You would destroy an LT1. So its def an LS1.

Did you get a dyno printout when you got your tune done? I'd be interested to see it. With a centrifugal blower you should definitely be making power all the way to redline. If you're not then there is something wrong. What are you tuning with? How many pounds are you running? Do you have a wideband?

Nice kill, once you're taking it all the way to redline it's going to be a lot faster
