That sounds amazing. The video did not list any specs though. You can tell by the sound its a Maggie or KB type blower and not a centrifugal supercharger. You could also tell that car was a M6 which will be the equivalent to the GXP. That was a bad **** for sure.

I actually think it sounds like a Mustang GT with a big exhaust, I hate to say. My buddys sc gt sounds identical. The G8 however is MUCH better looking! haha

That's an Eaton for sure. Look on Youtube and search VXR8. The Vauxhall VXR8 is the European cousin to the Pontiac G8 and Holden Monaro. Comes with a sickass eaton that produces 550hp though. Wonder if Pontiac will get that engine combo?

It must be a new version they are releasing cause I cant find any info on it. God I hope the GXP will come with this combo!

wow that sounds beautiful. Nice roar from the exhaust and the whine of the blower is icing on the cake. I think it sounds better than 03-04 cobra's with an exhaust.

Damn. That thing sounds pissed. Sounds a hell of a lot meaner than a Mustang, that's for sure. I wonder what kind of exhaust it has on it. Whatever it is, that thing is freaking loud.

That can't be a factory exhaust system, can it?
