i dont know what the percentage is but chevys seem to loose a ton of power through their driveline.like i said, my buddy has a vmax and it definitely does not feel like a 345 hp(?) motor.im not into chevy much though so i dont know, ive had a lot of old dodges, and the titan is my first truck.

actually chevy doesnt loose too much i think. its the dodge ram hemi's that loose alot!! like 26%!!!
huh, maybe my friends engine is just messed up or something, he has the 6.0 345hp vortech. ive been wrong once or twice before.
If he was running low octane fuel that might have done it... The vmax is tuned for premium, anything else and the pcm starts messin w/ the knock retard. I've noticed that in my truck when the gas was at $3 a gallon for reg.
that's here in houston, with NO nitrous. that's my buddies truck. there's another guy that went 13.56 with the same mods as me, but he has slicks so he can hook. the best i can do is 13.9 spinning through the 60ft mark. i've got another pass with a 125 shot, BABYING it off the line running a 13.22. and that's with 3/4 tank of gas, 100lbs of stereo stuff, spare, tailgate, and crap in the front seat. FULL street trim. with weight reduction and drag radials that's a 12.6 EASY! this winter when i get finished up i'll be running high 12's on motor and LOW 12's with a 125 shot. got video of it all if you dont believe it.
Those are nice times but hard to believe. shoot me a pm with the vid. I'd like to see it. I still haven't heard from any titans in CO. Will check back early in the morn. just wanna prove some people wrong on this site that have raised some Eyebrows and question marks on silveradoss.com that think stock vs stock they got a chance.
Hey i think its cool cause they now titans are nice.As for badblackhemi he seems to be nutral and knows titans are are no joke and have more potential. Lets be real your regular truck is not meent to be draged raced.

Why is this taking up space on a Titan Forum, Do either of you have a titan?
No I don't own a titan. and don't want to either. I prefer faster trucks. The reason this is taking up space in your titan forum is simple.... numorous titan owners on this site think stock vs. stock they have a chance. From a dead stop or not I'm saying a titan would get The only one to reply has been a dodge and some titan in montana who obviously didn't read the thread title. Also, I've seen one titan a couple times close to my house and wanted to see if there was anyone in the denver metro that is on this site especially that titan who i've seen messing with ford rangers like that was something to brag about. still waiting for a serious reply.... from a titan owner.

And yours is? No doubt nissan actually built a stout truck. just a little slower than my chevy, thats all.
I know japenese vehicles have a rep for great reliability, but on the other side my 95 silverado ran great to 223k w/ heavy trailer use on original tranny and engine. Plus i drive it like i stole it till the day a cam bearing spun. got a new 350 in it... now the tranny's going. get that fixed it'll be good for another 200k.
the titan is still nicer and handles better IMO. every chevy ive ever drove has sloppy steering and drives like crap. i dont really care about racing in my titan, i just like driving it. if i want to race ill hop in my 71 charger with 425 rwhp.
try riding in a vmax with manual ride control. (A switch that automatically stiffens shocks for loads, rough roads, or to control body roll on a launch) In the soft mode the thing rides like a caddy.
Hey vmax i think you got the wrong concept here cause my truck was not ment to be draged. Go out to a drag strip and give us some prof post it and ill tell you thats cool, you proved your point, if you win. My truck is what it is a truck !!! lets face it another truck will come out braging about HP and torq but it will just be a truck. O an nissan titans are asembeld in the US
