Default 12.8 @ 115MPH Compliments of New Era Performance

Last friday the fellas @ New Era Performance installed a 228/240 cam into my Pontiac G8 GT. This was done in addition to the NEP CAI, ARH headers and custom NEP Tune I already had (13.47 @ 105.9 before). Next on the agenda is possibly a Yank 28-3200 Torque Converter and some drag radials. Hoping to get into the 11's.

Yea....The 60' times blow with these cars. That and I spun all the way through 1st, and most of 2nd. Milan isn't known for being a very good track for hooking up. I need to get down to Norwalk and try there.

i think i was at the track when you ran the 13.4 earlier this year. Your G8 is orange right because i went to milan about 1 1/2 months ago and there was a G8 running that sane time. i was in the pewter t/a, i ran 13.7 all stock, it seemed that the air was bad that day though.

Yes that was me! Hopefully will have my rims and tires w/in a couple weeks so look for me again. Trying to get my 12.5's incase I decide to go to the LSX Shootout.

A 3200 or higher stall should put you in the low 12's lif you can hook.

The guys at New Era are great!!!!
