Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am Trailblazer showed good numbers and awesome torwue curve. The transam dyno is interesting. One was done on a mustang dyno and the newer one is done on a dynojet. The only mods inbetween was a torque converter. http://www.mychevytruck.com/mygallery.ten?id=4459

Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am I went there for the dyno pics, but those offroad pics are pretty nasty. I don't know of a truck that could make it through that nasty mudhole... wow. Got any more?

Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am yea, its real nice, I would like to see the i6 or i5 in a car. Imagine the i5 with a little turbo in the grand prix or something similar.

Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am I agree, that straight six in the Trailblazer is one hell of a sweet engine. Lots of torque down low, super smooth and gets pretty decent mileage in such a heavy vehicle, it would be perfect in a midsize sedan, or even better, a lightweight 2 door sports coupe (rear drive of course!)
Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am Not bad, they are damn expensive though, I saw the stickers at the dealer and it was all high 20s. It would be cool if theyput the 5.3 in the regular version, I dont like the long version it comes in.

Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am They are a bit pricy. Mine stickered at 31,000 and I walked out the door at 23,000 with all the discounts and cash back and gm card.

Re: Dynoed my Trailblazer, and Trans Am wow that's very nice! I came very close to buying a trailblazer, after seeing that kinda wish I did heh (an SUV isn't really practical for me so I opted for a 4 door sedan instead)
