from what i understand, the gxp is very similiar. hell, even the kit for GM tune is the same item number.
that G ws f'n movin though in the mid 12's!

see thats weird cause i was first lookin a a solstice gxp when they first came out. but as i watched i never seen any of them run some impressive times and as i read there forums i kept seeing them mention they were hell to tune? wasnt sure if the pcm/ecm in them were different.

Solstice GXP's cannot hook at all IMO. My dad has one and trying to drive it (even stock) it would spin the tires like crazy on the crappy stock ones.

Good battles boys!

What year is that 335? Makes me want one

If you haven't given her a ring, her opinion doesn't matter.

Hell, if she is willing to deal with me during this winters build then I'd say she is a keeper and may just get that ring she's been wanting after all.

Probably because it was 55megs. Lol

I'll see if I can get it to you another way. I may have to Reencode it to a smaller file format or something.
