    2010 Camaro - 200 Shot

    200 shot on an already 420 hp car at 11.5. Thats not very impressive honestly. 600+ hp S197 are running low 10s. I like the new Camaro and I am sure they will ET better with more seat time and more mods. So until then my lil wimpy Whippled car @10 lbs will continue to show them my pretty tail...

    TR 3650?? Is this right for me? Please have many questions!

    Test drive both. I live in a rural area and city traffic I don't deal with everyday. I have 40 k miles on my car. I have made about 250 passes on my car. 50 of those with nitrous and 520 rwtq, no issues. Alot depends on the driver and driving style. I am a dedicated manual tranny driver. I know...

    What spark plugs are you happy with?

    I was pleased with my stock HT1s. I did take them out and apply anti seize, never had an issue swapping them out. I ran HT0s on a 100 shot, again no issues. I will be installing a Whipple very soon and have Brisk plugs to install.

    Cost to Paint aftermarket hood?

    Most important is research local painters. You would rather spend a little more for a great job than to get a cheap job and get crap. I would say in the area of $600-$800 for the hood. Good luck.

    I ran a Nitto DR 305/45/18 in the back without an issue. That was with the car lowered an inch. It never rubbed even on hard launches. That (305/45/18)size is a 28" tire. Good luck.

    12s anyone?

    DAs have a big factor for ETs to the OP. My car stock best was a 13.55. Added 4.10s,CAI,87 tune was at 13.0s on PNeros (traction was tough). Adding MT DRs would run higher 12s. Added control arms,DS,plates,UDPs best so far 12.60 @ 107, with a 1.63 60',low elevation,temp was 80,not sure on DA...

    Smelly (rotten-egg) Exhaust

    Cheap Headers and H-pipe?

    Only issue I have heard from S197 owners with OBX is some very slight fitment adjustments (nothing major). Seen pictures from 1 year DD with alot of salted winter driving, they looked fine. Power gains are online with other manufacturers.

    help...water spots etched into paint...clay bar, pollishing compound, wax... no help

    You will have to get aggressive with it. I personally use 3M products. Try the extra cut compound, get the orbital with the wool bonnet. Then go over it with their swirl mark remover with their grey pad. Next use the Perfect it (blue label) fine swirl mark remover with their blue pad. Apply a...
