Default Grand Prix GXP vs G8 GT

It's been a little while since the Grand ***** got to have some fun. Just passed the break-in miles for a freshly built TEP trans and these are the first WOT pulls on it. The electric cutout is melted in the closed position so not at full boost and power yet since everything's going through the extremely tiny stock exhaust system. Still good to see what it can do even in this condition.

Oh and bla GoPro1 bla too dark bla is this a Star Wars clip? bla bla getting that out of the way lol

Hey I was told to drive it normal, no WOT throttle for the first week/400mi or so and that's just what I did. 12-month warranty
