What does a BONE STOCK 04 GTO make at the ground?
I am thinking about buying a 04 Goat and am curious as what HP and TRQ numbers they make at the ground in stock form with a auto and a manual. If anyone has numbers would you post them. Thanks

How come some of the auto's you say make even less than that. The car that I have found is a auto car and with the numbers that low and you say some are even lower maybe I should hold off for a manual. My only plans for the car are a set of longtubes,K&N intake system free mods and a 150 to 175 shot.

On a DynoJet a stock A4 04, no tune no nothing will typically average 285 - 290 rwhp.
My baseline dyno (stock + LPI CAI) was:
Run 1: 297.0/326.2
Run 2: 302.4/325.1
Run 3: 302.3/326.7
The typical tune coming from the factory on the 04 was crap, I was lucky and was actually pretty well tuned. Most cars had spark plug gaps that didn't even match.
An A4 has about a 17% loss from the crank. So 350 * .83 = 290.5rwhp
So with my current bolt-ons (LTs/CAI/exhaust) I'm at about 385hp *.83 = 319.55rwhp
Manuals have more like a 13 to 14 % loss...but all things equal are slower in the 1/4.

So the rearend setup really eats alot of the power. My stock 99 TA with bolt on minus exhaust and headers made 311 and 325 on a dyno jet. It just seems hard to believe that the rearend on the GTO's takes up that much power.

LS1 GTO's will dyno lower than LS1 F body's. The tune is more conservative from the factory, and the IRS eats up a little more hp.
I've got a 2004 M6 for sale...

That is really a suprise to me about the rearend eating that much. What are you wanting out of you GT0 and if you don't mind telling me why are you selling it?

Yeah I agree about not having a dyno queen. I was just wanting real numbers from people that have the cars. I do plan on doing some mods to one if I get one,but I wanted to see what numbers I would be starting with.

I would like to thank everyone for taking the time to answer my questions about the GTO. I do believe that this is the car I am forsure in the market for. Thanks again!!
