Default Ran my buddy's LS1 GTO again

Twice from 55, lol. It was even til about 80 then he pulled a little, I was about a fender behind at 100, not bad considering I'm untuned, he was in 3rd, btw.

Running again this week, a dig, a 30 (in 1st), and a 40 (in 1st). He'll get me on the dig, I can't launch for , I'll eat him on the rolls though. There will be videos.

Reruns after my tune too, so stay tuned.

He has headers and an 05 catback, I think that's all.

Once your tune gets straightened out you should be a good run for him!

I've beaten him from 40 once before he got the headers and I had bad plugs.

CAI, cutout stuck 15% open, bad tune, running straight rich, but I did put in new plugs last week. My mods will always be full disclosure.

Like this little bit of news, the turbo built is put on hold, I'm just gonna build my tranny and run a 100 shot for a while, maybe a few internal mods.

i cut a 1.9 60' in my '05 gp gxp. It can launch but you have to have jedi mind control over the pavement lol... seriously use the word h-i-p-p-o-p-o-t-a-m-u-s. Say that to yourself as you press the gas pedal down. You want to time it so that the pedal is at the floor at the end of the word... It works like a charm. If you're not spinning a little by the time the pedal is down speed the word up a little till you find the traction threshold. I ran 13.6 @102+ in my bone stock gp gxp and a ***** load of 13.7's with only 1200mi on it 5 years ago.. it CAN BE DONE!!!
