Nice! What's in store for the GXP?

What was that crap on the front of Jeffs car? Hiding something?

Tossing ideas around now. We were thinking maybe a 427... maybe a Maggie... or maybe both

It's similar to the material that comes on the cars from the factory. We install it along with fender covers on all cars before we work on them to protect the paint.

Keep me updated. Everyone said our numbers seemed low, but the car did only have 19 miles.

The stock exhaust is choking the blower. It'll make 450-460rwhp with exhaust mods.
While peak HP might be similar to a H/C car, the power under the curve of the blower
car is much better and the torque down low makes for a great street car.

Nice. Great to see dyno vids when people actually show the graph afterwards.

Easily. We should know shortly. We plan on modding ours. We had it back on the dyno today after breaking it in... breaking it in very hard and the numbers are closer to what others are seeing. With 19 miles it made 351 RWHP / 361 RWTQ, now with 1,000 hard miles and no mods it made 371 RWHP / 382 RWTQ.

Wow... It's amazing to me how much horsepower break in frees up. Wonder if it applies to my car @ 193 miles? lol, j/k
I'd like to do at least bolts on if/when I get one. Maybe even a small cam. 370rwhp is near my goal with the LS1 in the 3rd gen, but seeing as how the 3rd gen is something like 3200lbs as opposed 4000 lbs...
