Well I was cruizing on the highway around 75-80MPH and I see this yellow C5 Vette Spyder come up on me real fast. The problem was I didnt see him until he had already slammed the gas so from the get go I was playing catchup. I guess when I down shifted into 4th I was doing around 75mph while he was around 85mph, when I guned it I started to real him in for a few seconds then we stayed in the same position the whole time up until around 140mph when we shut them down. I was real suprised to say the least that I could be almost identical with a C5 vette. The guy later pulled over and we chatted for a while and I asked him what year and he said it was a 2003 C5 vette with just an exhaust upgrade. I said thats a fast car it really gave my 4 banger a run for its money! LOL he was like 4 banger? I said yep. He was like well yours is a Porsche thats why. I laughed and said I'll catch him later. I'm sure most ofyou already know my mods and have seen my previous videos so I won't bother listing them again. It would have been cool to real his *** in but I guess you can't when them all right? Maybe if we started at the exact same time the ods would have been much better. I was running around 15psi of boost on this run.

That's everyones excuse, "BECAUSE ITS A PORSCHE."

Still, it's a damn 4 banger!

We get more bang per cylinder than that V-8!

i love the 951!

Yeah because your 4 cylinder is turbo charged. If the C5 was turbo charged it would make much more power per cylinder than a 951.

well, duh. 5700cc's is a crap load of displacement. I've seen NA ls1's make 390rwhp

I would like to see how well the C-5 holds up after 16 years. That's one race all the boost in the world isn't going to help him win.

Luke, try 450+ rwhp, NA and daily-driven - it's a simple head/cam swap. Check out CorvetteForum.com

Bash the Vette all ya want, I had a C5 Convertible 6sp and than a Z06 to play with for a couple of weekends.

Sure they rattle and will never hold up like a Porsche BUT they make up for it because they are FUN FUN FUN! Is that not what a sports car is all about?
I could not get the grin off my face in the Z06

And trust me I am a die hard Porsche elitist!

It's the only American car I'd ever buy. They are awesome at autocrosses.
I wouldn't be able to afford the speeding tickets.
