I know my car won't see 11's without nitrous. I don't feel the 4.6 responds to bolt ons as well as the LSX but with that said we are talking about a motor almost 2ltrs smaller. I think it will take a bolt on Mach to hang with a stock GTO and a race car to hang with a bolt on GTO.
Thank you, thats probobly the most truthfull, honest and unbiased thing said all damn day.

I agree the ls2 Gto can run well to bad the ls1 Gto don't run as good as that.

Funny you say that, as the fasterst GTO was held by an LS1 for a very long time, and is still only 2/10`s off that mark. Say what you will, love running into people like you on the street That little 5.7 emblem on the back dont mean **** when you start modding.
