Thanks guys that info was greatly appreciated...the main reason I ask is cause I have had recent encounters with each of these, here was my results.
Corvette: we were from about 40mph rolling and both gunned it to about 100(was drizzling a little so didn't want to go any further) and we were dead even.

911 Carrera: It was on the highway and he was right next to me and I actually hit it before he did and he tried and tried but could not catch up, that one ended at about 130mph.

and finally the Boxter S: I smoked him rolling from about 45mph till about 100. Dont remember exactly how many cars but it was a few.

Thanks again guys!

Sweet! I can't wait for that 300+hp dyno chart.

Any trips to the track planned?

Monday the car gets dropped off for NX kit install and 3.125. Although i should be in the 300hp mark now since my last dyno was with the 3.33 and no alcohol cooling, right now im using the 3.25 and 50/50 water-alcohol injection. Hopefully Ill have a dyno chart up by either next Fri or Mon and track times in about 2 wks. Keep you posted...

A Mustang Magazine ran its arch enemy, a Z28 SS at 12.89. On a cold day, a great driver can easily get high to even mid 12s for the Vette, since its lighter and has more HP than the Z.

I take it you are a domestic car enthusiast??? Thats cool, I appreciate all cars, even some domestics. Although most Z28 and stangs are not the great handlers, they are good cars for drag. But Id take the M3 in your pic over any domestic.

Its actually water/alcohol, Its called Aquamist intercooling. I have a 1.8 gallon tank in the trunk filled with 50%alcohol and 50%distilled water, and when my boost kicks in so does the water with alcohol. The reason that you use alcohol along with the water to cool is so you dont drop the octane of the fuel. Check out my homepage for some pics of the whole system.

I think the water/alcohol thing is good for daily street use. However, I don't think it will help at the track. I know Mardigrasmax used to have this water/alcohol thing, he ran poorly with the system on. After he turned it off, he ran much bettter.

Thats prob because he was running 20%alcohol and 80% water im doing 50-50 and the car is running really good. But I will let the track and dyno do the talking next week, so I could know for sure, speculation/assumption is the mother of all fukk ups

The Vette puts down almost exactly what a Z28 or SS puts down. I watch Vettes and f-bodies run within .1-.2 of eachother all night at the drags with no advantage on each side. Top sped the Vette prevails!

those things are litterally torque monsters, hit it up with a 100shot of nos w/ no other mods and ull hit up over 400 whp and get this pretty close to about 600 lbs ft of torque and this is the reg C5 showed on tv a while ago, but still id have to say $ for $ the fastest car out is a superchared lingenfelter Z06, costs a bit over 60K and u get pretty damn close to 600hp and the torque ????? cont say buy u know is out there, gives u enough power to take out GT2!!!

Most 6sp run low 13s stock I know several personaally that are in the mid 12s with an intake.
I Gtech @ 12.8 with a few bolt on such as intake, exhaust and X pipe.

yup that very true so if a vette is stock u might have a good race if u got a s/c and a whole buch of otyher mods, but a few tweaks and those vettes are very generous on freeing up power, and those Z06 vetts those thing run like mid 12's w/o and mods, 7000 gets the lingenfelter s/c which gives them another 170hp approx, can u say low 11s!
