Chadoo951 Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Hey guys. Just wanted to post a update for some people to see. Its a 2009 g8 gt. Performance mods so far are a intake, tune, staggered wheels and big sticky tires out back, solo mach shorty exhaust system, and kooks 1 7/8 long tube headers with high flow cats. Next going in is a torque converter, and a cam. here is a video for you guys. Let me know what you think. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKL_LG6_qyo&feature=player_embedded Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chadoo951 Posted August 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 Thanks guys!. This video DOES NOT give this car justice!!. You'd have to feel it in person. We had to soften the tune up once we added the timming for the headers. Prior to the headers I was chirping the tires going into 3rd gear at 75mph on the freeway. Which was fine. But once we added the headers it spun so bad going into 3rd gear it would kick the back end out. So in sport mode (what I was in during the video) we tuned it down so that it doesnt spin so badly going into 2nd, and so that id doesn't chirp 3rd at all. But in Manual mode. It will still lay down black patches of rubber when going into 2nd and spin hard going into 3rd. Manual mode is just for me to be loud and annoying and to show off in. This is the video I took BEFORE I got my headers and a retune. This is me chirping 3rd on the freeway lol!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0maqVrVGyE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kick-ass ride you have man! I havnt heard a thing bad about these front ends or transmissions either. There are g8 gt's with stock engines and stock transmissions, but with a cam and supercharger pushing 600 rwhp with no problems. They are driven to the track, run 11's (or faster I cant remember. There is videos though) and then come back home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blick05SS Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 yea a friend of mine has a g8 gxp with about the same kind of work you have done ran 12.xx spinning through the traps they are really nasty cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black2003SS Posted August 13, 2010 Report Share Posted August 13, 2010 You just solidified my decision to get the tune, CAI, and exhaust to start and hopefully some LT's as soon as possible for my 2009 G8 GT. I'm going to have Zippy from LEP do my tune. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
