16 GT vs 16 SS, comparison after owning both

[Voodooo]

No not necessarily. I can't speak about around the twisties because there really is no data behind that as of now. I'm talking about raw speed. 0-60, 1/4 mile, braking, and overall drivability.

Ok well let me get this straight.
You think the SS is faster in raw speed and 0-60/1/4 mile fine that's ok.
But around a road course or braking no way. Everyone knows the gt350 isn't a drag car.

Sit inside a camaro and you will understand, all I can really say. The seams, body panels, paint, feel of the interior and much more are the quality I'm talking about.

I take boost out of the equation because it is an infinite battle. Any car can be fast throwing enough money into it. Even though the point here is comparing a stock SS to a modded 5.0.

I've been inside the SS. I don't think its better than my CS interior at all. I personally can't stand the dash layout in the Camero. Also, I'm getting too old to grow a mullet to drive one.

Infinite battle - You said it.

Bickering over Stock vs Stock is a complete joke on either side of the fence. :headbonk:

If you're that worried about interiors and bells and whistles you should of bought a used 2012 E63 AMG. They can be had for under 40k and with a simple tune will walk both the Camaro SS and GT and do it with class. More horse power, more torque, more doors and 186mph out of the box.

Again, people here are either dumb or ignorant. A roll race is won by the faster car with driver error reduced to a minimum, true or false? That's the point of this conversation. The camaro is the faster car taking out driver error verse a modded mustang. Faster in the 1/4, track, highway, and anywhere. I won't even get on the quality or interior subject.

How about that quality paint job on the camaro?

This Mustang 5.0 user is the one that kept trying to tell me that an x/hpipe added horsepower to the '15+ GT's. Even after 15 people saying the same thing as me, he still disagreed.

Bwhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....That for sure discounts his statements the SS/GT350 are on the same playing field.

It does add more h/p Todd, about 2-3....I think LOL.

Off-road X/H pipes do add power.

Exactly, this guy thought I was crazy. Never said it was 20whp but it does add power.

Terry Reeves, AKA Beefcake, did back to back dyno testing. It was 1.4hp. Not hardly measurable

:doh:....The discussion was not off-road. We went thru all of that in that thread. I will not debate this crap with you. Another member on the block list:clap2:

The power is negible at least when using the butt-dyno, but definitely has the placebo effect that makes it appear that your car is faster due to the increased volume.
Exactly Todd...but I'm a little pissed because I was told 2-3, I know Terry is reputable but I'm leaving 2 h/p somewhere on the table man lolz!

The argument was an aftermarket Xpipe from magnaflow, mbrp, or any of those brands which is off-road. Most people who upgrade get them catless which make it off-road. Not going to argue with you because this is a widely known fact that OR xpipe is a power adder.

 

[BluByeU]

On the S550s the cats are attached to the stock or aftermarket headers, not like the h/X pipes that were made for the Fox-bodies...you could go cat less or p/u a pair that had hi-flo cats.

Is this your whole complaint all along? 1/4 times to the gt350?

This is the backward thinking you have to deal with from chevy fan boys. In one breathe he wants to discount the fact that no Camaro has beat me in a drag race. In the next breathe he want to claim victory in a drag race VS. a GT350??? Mainly because he read it somewhere!:doh:I recommend he tries one of his ricer roll races against a GT350 and see how it works out.;)

 

[BluByeU]

I'm confused is he not an owner of a Mustang?

Nope. Sold it and bought a '16SS aka Koenigsegg killer.

I had a 2016 5.0 PP and recently sold it for the SS. Both great cars.
