Stock for stock it should be VERY close, unless one car isn't running right, or one is a factory freak. -- Red 2002 Camaro Z28 M6 with Hurst shifter, T-tops, Leather, 12 CD Changer Ram Air Scoop, SLP Lid, K&N Filter, Smooth Bellow, and Borla Exhaust; 332 RWHP @ 5450 RPM, and 347 RWTQ @ 4500 RPM; Just installed Dynatech Long Tube Headers and High-Flow Cats; 13.30 @ 110.7 mph with a 2.32 60'...I need traction mods Posted By: 97Lt1TA On: 05-19-2005 @ 21:05:38 Reply | Top | Edit his car the only mod that he has is the ram air intake for the ss hood scoop and his exhuast seems to be upgraded but he claims that all 97 ss had that exhaust (its the one with the two outlets form the muffler going to one side so form the back it looks as if he had 2 muffler tips on the left side). as for my car i have an airfoil and 160 thermostat and the previous owner of my car changed the pipe form the y pipe to the muffler to a 3 inch and i think my muffler is not stock but i might be wrong. -- http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/PC090904.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010042.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010047.jpg Posted By: GTA91 On: 05-20-2005 @ 05:46:08 Reply | Top | Edit Most SS guys think the factory SS is a joke as far are the air induction goes. I have looked at one and i can agree that can't flow for shit. He could have 342s and you may have 273s. I really don't see how those to would be that much diffrent. Unless his is in great shape and yours is tired. -- 94 Z28 M6, Cai, hooker catback, SLP fan switch, Lakewood LCA, Jegster Tq arm. Posted By: 97Lt1TA On: 05-20-2005 @ 13:30:11 Reply | Top | Edit ya i got 2.73 gear and hes got the 3.42 plus he uses 93 octane gas and me bc im low on money and the gas prices went up i went down to 87 and 89 octane  -- http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/PC090904.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010042.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010047.jpg Posted By: PongoX11 On: 05-20-2005 @ 14:18:30 Reply | Top | Edit First off, if the gears are stock they are probably 3.23 (I could be wrong on this one) Far as the gas you are using! What its like $0.20 more per gallon from 87 to 91. You have a 15.3gl tank. So even if you run your tank dry thats only another $3.06 to fill up. --

I'd say a car and a half is about right for the difference between 2.73s and 3.23's. -- 2001 Firebird 3.8 5spd: exhaust, lid, cat, LCA's+relo, 3.73's, Zexel posi, HP Tuners + Intense-Racing tune, complete MSD setup, HBHRacing fan switch, SPEC Stage 2

I just don't have the nuts to run a 10 to 1 motor on 87. I know it will cut timing and that is more then likly how you lost. -- 94 Z28 M6, Cai, hooker catback, SLP fan switch, Lakewood LCA, Jegster Tq arm. Posted By: 97Lt1TA On: 05-21-2005 @ 01:36:15 Reply | Top | Edit ya i no i use to always put in 93 and i felt the difference and now i put in 87 few times the car didnt act right. it idled rougher and response was slower. im doing my best with putting 93 and im putting in the injector cleaner to clean out the injectors -- http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/PC090904.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010042.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010047.jpg Posted By: 97Lt1TA On: 05-21-2005 @ 01:38:26 Reply | Top | Edit the gearing makes a difference here too. my 2.73 gear is like the only thing i hate in my car and i want to change soon as i get a job. right now the gears are tooo long -- http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/PC090904.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010042.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y227/97lt1ta/P1010047.jpg Posted By: raven97 On: 05-21-2005 @ 19:40:05 Reply | Top | Edit Read your onwers manual It tells you to specifically run 91 or higher -- 
Posted By: Z28LT1Ski On: 05-22-2005 @ 00:41:26 Reply | Top | Edit Youre risking detonation by putting 87 in. Your computer can only compensate for so much then BOOM. BTW good races. --
