Pontiac G8 2008-2010 - New G8 GT Owner!!

After years of seeing these cars on the road and wanting one, I finally stepped up and sold my truck and picked up a 2009 Sport Red G8 GT!! Drove it an hour back home and loved every minute of it even though it was pouring rain. I already have the mod bug, looks like I will have to ignore my Camaro for a while and pay some attention to the G8!!

Awesome ride brother. Check out the article in GM Hi-Tech Performance magazine with the Twin-turbo G8 putting out 700+. You already know how I feel about twin-turbos.

Welcome. This car responds well to mods. So be ready

Awesome ride man! Congratulations!

Great looking car.

nice!

good looking car!

Looks nice, you will love it

Sport Red - my favorite color on these cars - gorgeous!

Now for boost.

Nice! Welcome to the club

thanks guys. i already have a plan for wheels, brakes and suspension. then eventually a TVS 2300!!

You are on the right path.

beast, what made you do a Procharger over the TVS system?

Any mods yet cook?

nope no mods yet. but im planning a few. The Camaro still gets my mod money right now!!

Congrats on your new ride, I am sure it's a hell of a lot of fun! A good buddy convinced me that when I do get mine, don't go crazy on warranty voiding until after the warranty is almost up, to ensure you cover any and all recalls/un-normal wear items. To each their own, but if you have one toy, why not save this one for treatment later. Who knows, maybe more aftermarket parts will fit and be made once the new chevy SS comes out.

Drivability. The way the power builds. And is limitless on power compared to a Maggie. Install was a breeze.

Maggie's build boost really quickly and is great for the street or for someone looking to be in boost more often then not.

I'm almost always in vacuum cruising around, which is great for fuel economy, even of I give it some throttle, say 3500rpms or less, I barely hit 2.5 lbs, so less fuel for daily cruising.

Iats are pretty good as well and belt slip is non existant.
This thing pulls like a freight train and I am no where near done with this setup.

Larger injectors are going on this weekend for more power and meth will be in a month or so

Real nice ride you will love it!!

There won't be any heat issues or timing issues with burning meth mixture? I really don't know much about nitro meth.

Hurry and yank out the DOD!

Awesome Ride man, you and all 5 of your friends that you can fit in that beast will love it!!!!

I agree there is plenty of space in this thing. one of my coworkers who is 6'8" sat in the back and even he commented on how much room there was.

I think a stall and a 5th Gen 3.27 rear will be the first mods. And because I know i will procharge it one day I am not jumping into any mods until I have a game plan for the end result.

Thats a good idea, dont want to waste time and money by mismatching parts and not getting exactly what you want.... Been there and done that....LOL

Awesome looking car man, my wife wants one bad. Since I got my T/A then my Camaro my wife has got the need for speed haha. But she wants something with more room seeing how we have a 7 month old. So she wants a v8 and room these are perfect. Hope you like it and good luck with the modding.

Beautiful car.

Very sharp.
