also for nick.... my shitty wagon goes 10.46 at 128 on a low budget build and weighs only 100 more pounds than my friends 2ss. and can seat 5! When you have kids this becomes important.
Cool, so it weighs 100lbs more than an already-heavy 2ss? I'm so proud of you.
It's not like a g8 gt would weigh less and already has the proper stuff, not to mention the higher quality. Or would it?

This is just a pissing match. I say line up what you have and end the debate.

How would that end the debate? At the end of the day, a g8 is a far superior car in every way.
I do not own one anymore, so I couldn't line up. And lining anything else up would not prove anything.

I bought the car for $4000. I paid $400 for the drivetrain line and pcm wiring. spent $2500 on comp cam, springs, push rods, arp bolts, rocker arms, gaskets ect. built the supercharger kit myself. I paid $800 for those materials. $250 for tuning. $350 in exhaust. = $8,300 how much was that sweet g8... don't be a hater! A G8 GT is a sweet ride I would gladly trade.

tach doesn't work... 2.7 v6 vs 4cyl signal needed. The temp, gas gauge, and alt all work. The speedo worked until I deleted the abs. I will be going aftermarket soon as posted.
