have you thought about going to stock manifolds and a wrapped ory and exhaust? I have heard that helps the spooling a lot.

We have a decent spot, that we can film from a bridge above the finish line if we plan it right.

I'm gonna make a video of me beating the Turbo Cobalt, then the Cobalt beating the LT1 and running even with the G8, and then people can decide for themselves lol

Just use it as incentive to keep modding that sleeper! My vote still goes to compound boost on the Regal. Just imagine how 600 tq and 300 hp would feel

I believe I've got plenty of footage so that they won't have to decide for themselves...

And I'm thinking I'm gonna need to start running a few of these higher powered cars from a dig to put them in their place.

Or maybe I'll just have my *** handed to me. I guess we'll have to see.

My best pass so far is 11.20 @ 124 mph on the 100 shot. I'm hoping to improve on that, but only time will tell.

I put the GTO away for the winter already so we'll have to wait until Spring for the rematch.

You won't improve anything launching it like a ***** the way you did last time at the track...

That's ok, you'll probably drop your trans again the day before the rental...oh wait, did I just say that

Seriously though, I think you're right, any improvement to be had will probably be in the launch for me.

Do you know where you're gonna go for tuning? I'm looking to have the G8 tuned next year, but haven't decided where I'm going to take it yet.
