probably not. You can get a better start than him, but he will catch up to you.


btw if you want to know more about bolt ons, there is a sticky thread on the 4gens by spector. He gives you a whole detail of bolt on mods. check it out

Btw You will get better response if asked in the Street Strip Section

you wont win trust me my grandfather has a 05 silv. with the 5.3 just intake and exhaust. i had a 3.4 94 that i would walk 3.8 (underdrive pulley, intake, exhaust, shift kit, MSD coils, headers, and a posi out of a Z) and he still walked me by cars, i could launch really hard and i pulled two cars on him right out of the hole but then he ran me down and jst kept pulling. so yea sorry to say but he will kill you ecspecially if he starts in 4WD then he will launch as hard as you can.

If you wanna go on the route of Forced Induction, then you need to do some internal works. Exampe: racing headers, cams, exhaust etc. You can get a small boost of 5-6 psi for you car. Then add about a 100 shot of NOS if you want. After that you have a great shot of winning against your dad (if he stays stock).

If you would like to supercharge your car, then I suggest you read on some information and learn about it before you make a decision. This is a thread started by specter and it has very useful for information on SC/TB. I suggest you read all the threads, it will only benefit you.

and for your benefit this one also
