guys just need to know what u think 03 siverado ss truck with intake exhaust ,all wheel drive vs 03 cls with intake im an auto the ss truck has 340 hp stock

03 CL TypeS

He'd own you off the line to say the least.

03CoupeV6

The CL-S is quicker through the 1/4 mile so I'd go for it. If you have a 6spd he might jump you off the line but you'll get him pretty quick afterwards. I've seen numbers of about 6.7 and 15.1@89 for them.

ga2000

out of the whole hes going to get about a car , car and a 1/2 i dont know if my cls will make up that ? especially in this heat tonig t it will be about 82 wth the humidity still hight right now its 90 something

C The "S"

Hes gotta drive in the same heat and humidity so I don't know why you're worried

ga2000

dont are cars react worse to this heat than other cars .......

6MTpromises

GM motors hate the heat too

03 CL TypeS

Forced induction (sc / turbo) cars are the most sensitive to variations in heat and humidity, not N/A cars such as ours.

Its funny I found this thread, because I raced my buddys 03 SS Silverado. He has exhaust, a chip programmer, and maybe a few other things he hasn't told me about. I have an 01 automatic CLs and yes its stock. From a dead stop he killed me, he hooked up and left me by about two to three car lengths. By about 50-60 I started pulling back on him pretty hard, passed him about 80 and kept pulling fairly hard on him. It surprised the crap out of him. I was just spinning from a dead stop, while he just hooked and left.

TypeSleeper

Those trucks are stout, I keep telling him to at least supercharge it. He wants to sell it because its horrible on gas, especially with gas prices right now. Its pretty stong running truck knowing how much it weighs.

TypeSleeper

But yes you'll win, he'll get you outa the hole, you play catch up, and then you be pulling hard

03 CL TypeS

Off-topic, but why would someone buy one of those instead of a RAM SRT-10 or a Lightening? Price difference I guess?

Sun Diego CL-S

i want to know the outcome of this run. i have a friend that has a stock silverado SS and wants a little race. i'll try to get him to have a go by this weekend. i'll try the typical 2nd gear roll then off of the line. the posts in this thread being true will give me a fun run since i have just the sport shift but with headers.
... to be continued

C The "S"

It's called brand loyalty.

Trucks are built for low end grunt not for top end power, that would explain you pull up to him around 60.

2003TL-S

How does 0-60: 6.3 and 14.8 at 90 mph in the quarter sound. That's what car and driver reported on an 03 SS. My suggestion, don't mess up the launch and you got him.

But as always the only way to find out is to race so do it and let us know!

ga2000

the truck is strong. ive been in it . and it seems to pull all the way thru but well see .and i think hes going to get the computer flashed today so thats another mod to contend with ... lol from a roll im not worried but a dead stop hell yea .. at the track ive seen i run 14.8 consistant im on a hot day 14.6 7 or even 8 cool day 14.6 14.5 and 1 14.4 ...... anf this trucks modded so we will see

03CoupeV6

Car and Driver figures can never be replicated for some reason. They got 7.2 seconds to 60 for a TSX.

n00dleboy

but the tsx IS really that slow..

ga2000

results of the race !!!!!!!!!!!!! we ran from a dead stop . a friend of mine flagged it . he took me by a 1/2 a car when we took off... but right away i caught up and passed by the time a went into second i had a 1/2 a car on him then by the end of the 1/4 i had him by a car and a 1/2 almost 2..... great race by the way he had intake , exhaust , and a chip ,,,,,,,,,, my mods are only intake I WIN lol

hairybonch

ga2000
