Default GXP vs GXP

and I lost, as I kind of expected... *ricer excuse alert* I need a tune and a tune-up, plus I had a passenger and some other extra weight...

I don't think he went when I did the first time and he got a jump the second time.

GXP-Miller's car is an early '07 (Alcoas) WITHOUT a sunroof! Can't be many of those around...

Kind of a before and after, lol.

Thought I put that, 100% stock...

I could tell my cutout is doing more harm than good untuned.

EDIT: Off topic, but I just looked and only 182 '07 GXPs were made without a sunroof.

I think it was an order-only option.

Yep, he's down to go again, when my car's fixed, sans-passenger.

BTW, he said the first time, he wasn't int Tap, so that's why it was reciprocated.

No... I have a hot air intake (the shroud is useless ), the cutout, untuned, CEL limp mode, and bad plugs, hence the tune and tune-up comment.

And mine was silver once upon a time, lol.

I had about 250 extra pounds in my car.

It would still look like that if I wasn't rear-ended, and couldn't find another GXP rear clip, couple of gouges in the paint, and the paint on my front clip peeling badly.

Next time we get together. The result will be different.

I knew my car was running worse than stock at the time, plus passenger and other weight.
