Like I keep saying, all I did was state a few facts and everyone's vagina started gushing blood. Then it gushed even more when proof was supplied.

Want me to blow some smoke up your *** and tell you the 3.8L is better than an LS1?

Where did I say that the OP's car should be in the 11's? He is probably high 12's at best. Probably more like mid 13's judging by how stupid he sounds. I doubt he can drive as good as he says he can.

I could tell you a Colt is fast as **** and there are some that are out there, but what does that accomplish. I still don't own a fast as **** Colt.

I don't think anyone doubts that a gtp can be fast, but it takes quite a bit of work to get it there. There is 1 in the 10's, a hand full in the 11's, a bit more in the 12's and most in the 13's -15's. You're the one that is getting all butt hurt. If you had something worth a damn you wouldn't have to go out and find the fastest examples of gtp's running down the 1/4.

LOL me butt hurt? I'm laughing my *** off at all the ignorance and back peddling in here. I haven't even come close to the ''fastest examples'' yet either. There is A LOT more than ONE gtp in the 10's, Ace. There are a few in the 8's even. Fastest is 8.65 @ 159mph. 900whp with a bone stock short block and a bone stock differential. Pretty impressive IMO, for a 4 door cheerleader car.

It doesn't take a lot of work to get a GTP/Regal anywhere...
1 in the 10s?

You mean 1 in the 8s... a hand full in the 9s... a bunch in the 10s and a **** ton in the 11s. Countless in the 12s... stock pulley cars in the 13s and bone stock cars in the 14s.

I don't need to go anywhere to find a fast 3800 powered boat. Mine went 11s with less into it than what you spent on your turbo. Not the kit... just the turbo itself.

now please tell me that a regal that is not a full blown fiberglass body with an insane amount of money and time will do this stuff. stfu and climb back under the rock you crawled out from under. im tired of listening to your ignorance. the gm 3800 is a good motor, the regal/gtp are fun cars. they are not race cars and never will be. and if you bring up the "with enough money anything can be fast" bullshit http://youtu.be/uMdUo43-qu0
and before you say im ignorant, ive owned everything from a 3400 to an 8100. i know what all the motors are like, i dont just talk about them like you. and please call me a dumb kid, it makes my day when alls someone can say is a lame *** insult like that, and show their true age.

Arctic, pull your thick head out of your *** and listen to what I'm saying. I never said the GTP/regal was a race car. Just stated what they are capable of with what mods. You just can't handle it for some odd reason. You feel the need to justify your butt hurt by telling me how much better the LSX is. I've already said that the LSX is a much better platform. I own one for christ sake. You do sound like some dumb kid with a chip on his shoulder.

I have owned 3 3.8s personally. My best friend owns, and is currently modifying his GTP. His 228 cam only budget ls1 would still demolish the GTP however.
I know a little bit about a whole lot of platforms.. I am 100% of what they are CAPABLE of. I also know what 99+% of them run 99+% of the time. You are trying to pass stuff off that 1% run, that is why it isn't blowing over too well. You are trying to pass of that 11s is easy with a GTP... Meaning anybody with 2,000$ is GOING to run 11s in a GTP. Truth? They would be LUCKY to touch 12s. I mean you are saying it is EASY for a GTP to outrun a full bolt on ls1 by a few cars. You yourself said that wasn't true sweetie. "judge"

What is it I called BS on exactly?

I guess if you are talking to Guru Fury, I'm just a lowly grunt that hopes to outrun simple modded GTPs in my stalled A4 H/C ls1.

So now theres a **** ton of GTPs in the 11's and COUNTLESS in the 12's.

I'd be willing to bet you can go the rest of your life without seeing a single GTP run 12's at a local TNT. Also more luck of getting struck by lighting than seeing one run 11's. That made for a good needed Monday work day laugh though.

I mean bro.... They run 14s stock, add an intercooler and you are in the 12s. They are just modding them wrong.

I'm going to add an intercooler to my Mach. Maybe like a STI type setup under the shaker.

I took my radiator and trans cooler out and installed one. Then I put 3 mini ICs in my TB. It gets stuck on them sometime... But with the 1600Rwhp I'm making it doesn't matter, I just go everywhere WOT.

Badass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111

See my main concern is if I add an intercooler like the GTP has would I then be forced to install a roll cage to meet NHRA rules??

I can't believe an intercooler makes that much difference.
