I have a 00'GT and last sat. I raced a 01'Camaro SS. We pulled up to the stop sign and he revved his engine. I rolled down my window and said, "lets do this!" We both took off and I pulled a 1/2 a car length ripping thru 1st and 2nd (thanks to my 3.73:1 gears)but as soon as I shifted to 3rd it was all over. He pulled about a car length ahead of me. We tried it again at the next two stop signs and it was the same result. I wasn't too disappointed considering all I have are gears, a K&N, underdrive pulleys and Flowmaster(3 chamber)exhaust. My Question is: How can I improve my 3rd gear power?
