Tested this new theory. Yep, it works.

Re: Trailblazer SS

I usually turn the nannies off at the track. Only had one pass so far that I was sideways all the way (I hate to lift) through 1st.

Mine (wife's actually) runs high 13's right now. Get some 17" drag slicks, a CAI, headers and a catback, and a slightly higher stall torque convertor... and you can run 12's. I've seen one running high 11's at the motorplex with no power adders.

Ryan has plenty of it I'm sure He ran it at the LSX Shootout in Bristol. He was also shown in a magazine this month, can't remember which one though.

Yeah, I see possibilities of good numbers if it hooks up. I plan to play with it a little. Nothing major now till later on when the warranty gets older. For now, K&N filter, exhaust(later), and tune. It takes time and money so this will be ongoing. Gonna do a resonator delete right off.
