New G8 GXP

Car made 355/353 bone stock down to the air filter. We just got it in the shop for Kooks Long tubes (Catted) and a tune.

Exhaust is on. We will have results by the end of the day. This is an M-6 car BTW.

Thats fine, actually taking the car to Ed Wright next week to get tuned.

Plan on doing a LSX powered GTM in the future, may bring that to you though.

Thanks badass guys. 47/39 gain before any tuning, look forward to see what you guys get out of her with a tune. The customer should be very happy.

Final numbers. The car is a little warm and its ***** hot outside. I think a pull while the car is cooler would make a little more.

Not bad for a car with headers, a CAI and a tune though.

I want one of those F'rs so bad I can taste it but I can't find a buyer willing to pay for my Typhoon, forget about trade in

Nice numbers in the heat, thanks for posting before and after.

Ive always wanted a nice typhoon. I had a 1989 turbo TA pace car that had 10k on the clock when I sold it 4 years or so ago.

If I was in a position to buy a vehcile, Id ask you about yours for sure!

Nice job guys.

It really is right? The mid range timing tables on these cars are crap from the factory, then add some mods that move more air and those are the graphs you get.

Nice results here, these cars really give us a lot of room to work.

The potential on the GXP is amazing. I am glad I went ahead and upgraded from my G8 GT to the GXP. Headers, Intake, TVS1900 would probably make for a SICK DD!!!
