Default Buddy just got a 08 gt500. questions

Car is 100% stock with only 7k miles and he picked it up for 30k. Sounds like a steal to me. Dont know alot about them. What do they dyno stock and I assume you slap on a smaller pully and tune and it makes another 100 hp? Anyways car is badass. Anyone have one?

That's a killer deal, they can be stout with a blower upgrade.

430-445ish stock from what I have seen. A pulley change, exhaust and tune REALLY wakes it up. Sounds like a deal to me. I have a couple buddies that have them.

I want to say they dyno around 450rwhp stock. And, yes. Pulley, tune, cai and they are up around 550rwhp. I'm sure others will chime in. I know Mike over at G-Force has tuned them.

I went there and walked right out lol i went there to look at a vette and they wanted me to wait in a long *** line for for someone to go find it... or they said i could walk the lot till i found it. I had a check from my bank in hand.

got my vette now about a hour later from champion Chevrolet
