adams2003 Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 You never no. Even though there isn't a huge market for the Titans (performance wise) he could have still had some mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevySSandChevy8.1 Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I'm not too sure about the titan, from previous threads we have had, titan owners are claiming 14.7-14.9 1/4 mile times. But maybe they have some merit, but from what I have read the titans are about 1 second more than what the titan owners have been posting. http://autos.msn.com/research/vip/Spec_Gla...d=98684&src=VIP Their truck is around the same weight as ours with less power, so i'd agree with msn autos. One of my coworkers has a titan and its definately faster than a hemi qc sport and slower than a hemi reg cab 4x2, slower than an SS. I'm sure this might spark the titan owners again, but it doesn't really matter. Try a tune from pcm4less, and a cai, some cheaper mods to give you more power.

KoTToN Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 Yea that doesnt make much sense to me I bet he had something done to it. My cousing just got a new titan and its pretty quick but not SS quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smkdu Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 There are programmers out there for the titan, so if your SS is stock that 109mph shut off creeps up pretty quick besides a stock titan has a higher top speed then the SS by about 10- 15 mph. So while on the interstate it was possible for him to pull away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infinus Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 I'll bet its all due to the gearing on the SS. First thing I noticed on my SS when I got it is that the 4.10 gears made it damn quick off the line, but slow up top. Once you hit about 60mph on a stock SS the acceleration just dies off incredibly. Now.... with the Radix big improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

infinus Posted February 8, 2005 Report Share Posted February 8, 2005 After looking at the specs on the Titan I further think that may be it. 305 hp @ 4,900 rpm 379 lb-ft of torque @ 3,600 rpm That 380 lb-ft of torque would work well with a longer gear... meaning they'd be fast trucks at highway speeds.
