@10txram If you are ever in Amarillo and wanna try some side by side acceleration tests hit me up on here, I drive a cummins now with a couple things done to it.
@ERIC933G It wasnt a Grand Prix LoL, And you know nohthing. they have photos on the wall, it was a display car from the factory. CompG came with powder coated Calipers LoL.
@BoxerMuscleMilk ok lets say i know nothing about this cars.lol the g6 gtp never came out with a supercharger its just the 3.9L engine the g6 gxp is the 3.6L engine if you didnt know that. I could go take a video of a g6 gtp at my dads job which used to be Worden Marten now its Ford City. you should post a video of those pictures that you saw at your job that work at.lol
I am stating facts lol. write back if necessary.pressed for caution.lol
@ERIC933G Lol, I think every one knows that, 3.9 only came in the year of 2006, 2007-2009 came with the 3.6, And that Supercharger got put on the Vehicle, I did not say it came factory LOL. Now go to bed :O
lmao you were redlining the shit out of it! haha. i have the same car. 07 gtp.. how much did you pay for the exhaust and where can you get it done? send me a message. thanks man
@joebro82 not tryin to diss on you or nothin... i was wonderin cause my fried has a gtp, and im getting a g35 and all he talks about is smokin me in a race
@6amoney Its all good. I dont even have this car. I have a dodge cummins that kills both those cars. lol. I beat mustang mach 1's and gto's and lt1 z28's. If a car is faster its faster, Thats why people mod to get them quicker than stock. My truck runs like a 17 stock, I'm in the 13's now and weigh like 8k lbs.
@joebro82 those turbo diesels are lethal i had an acura integra gsr which isnt the fastest car in the world but i could pull 16's in colorado which is mile high elevation, my friend has a 2009 duramax and he pulled a 15.2 with just a chip
@Chapstick050 Have you driven a GTO? Tried to launch one? And an ls1 GTO runs mid to high 13's actually and thats with a pro driver. 13.6-13.8 is average on paper. Now get on the street where traction is even harder to get and its game over. a Boosted 4x4 launch puts me 5+ cars by 50. Do a little research or get out and try to run a modded diesel truck. Most recent gto was ls2 tuned and exhaust and extra wide tires. Had him the first run and the second I ran out of fuel at 90 and he passed me.
@joebro82 Not True, I ran a 13.2 @ 107 Bone Stock down to the tire in my 04 M6 GTO... And with just a Catback and CAI I ran a 13.1 @ 111mph on street tires but I was spinning pretty bad... Since then I have ran a 11.73 @ 117.6 with a Cam, Longtubes, Exhaust and tune on a DR...
@Breze84 How is your taction at a stop light? So you got a 13.2 out of an LS1 GTO? You must have a freak ofa goat my friend. Trust, I love a Goat, my dad had a magnacharged 06 in impulse blue. The thing moved but once again it had no traction. Wider tires ended up with gouges from the wheel wells even after a tub.
@joebro82 Traction is not bad if you slip it out right, If you dump it YA your gonna spin. The main reasons why some people run shitty times in the GTO's is all do to launch, They are pretty difficult but I got it down pretty damn good. My GTO stock put down 330/342 to the wheels and now im making 425/396. My car did put down more power then most I have seen and the guys at Modern Muscle told me I had a damn strong GTO when it was stock so who knows.
reason he was rubbing is because his offset might have been off. Another reason is the GTO's cradle allignment is off a tad from the factory and the axle is further out on the passenger side just a tad but not enough to really tell by looking at it. He should have grinded the fender lip with a flap wheel on a angle grinder, Thats what I did. Also BMR Drag Bags help A LOT with rear end squat and tire hop which the Goats are prone too. I have my 13.1 @ 111 in my vids when I just had a CB & CAI
On a Side note I actually just went and looked at a 07 G6 GTP today as a better DD... Guy put a 1in drop all around and a GTR exhaust which I could care about either...
@victoriadish This was a limited buy thing by the company that actually made the factory gauges for the G6. These were actually in my 06 with the 3.5. Thats why the RPM loks like I am going off the charts. The 3.6 has a higher revving motor but I likes the gauges better and didnt care much about the RPM's. You might be able to find some aftermarket ones on ebay or g6performance.
nice car but at 100000 miles on that car its gunna run horrible now cause u didnt break it in right 500 miles is not enough break in time hope u sell it soon
Yes it is, At the time of this video it was set to stock BS torque management which makes it shift like crap. It has the tranny that ford and gm went in togther to develope to compet with the overseas comp. It is a 6 sped with the tap shift. I am really impressed with it. My Acadia has the same motor and the same tranny.
I just leave mine in d when running it. Contact vector tune and get it tuned. You will haul some ass then. With the ecm and tcm tune you will be a 14 flat 1/4. Add a couple mre things and you will be in the 13's.
hey this car looks sick..I was thinking buying with that "cash for clunkers" program w.e its called.lol....and I seen the price like 12.000$ worth the money right ????...
If it is a GTP then I say go for it. I had the reg V6 and I spent a ton to make it quicker and to do the system and rims and traded it in for the 07 gtp coupe.
Well they are a great daily driver. Had 2 of them. Both a year old when I moved on. One with 34k on it in a year. Drove just like new and never had a single issue with it.
34 K is nothing..lol...I mean this car looks nice I don't care how fast it goes..I am not a street racer....I was thinking buy this or a Honda Civic..but I live in Detroit soo i dk about a foreign car in this economy lol
I feel ya for buying american. I have a GMC Acadia now. I freakin love this SUV. Best all around vehicle I have owned. It has the same motor as the GTP or the GXP but they got an extra 20 hp or so to push the heavy ride around. I get 24mpg or so loaded down with the fam and luggage. With the 3.5 g6 I was getting 33 or sometimes better on the road. Take one out and feel it on the highway. The GT is one smooth ride.
Thanks but I bought a Chevy Cobalt 07 I love that car..it was nice and cheaper then the 09 G6....this is car is nice but I like the chevy better....smooth ride and great on gas...and I had a chevy cavalier before and I loved my old chevy got me to 190.000 Miles and no big problems So I bought a chevy again
ok, research vehicle break-in before you come on here making coments and calling people dumb asshole. Your manufacture wants a slow break in, People that did actual research on this saw higher dyno numbers and better ring seal by an agressive break-in. Look it up then come retract your statement.
I really dont feel like arguing with you. just go to motutuneusa and look for break in secrets. 300 engines tested so you read the results. Tighter piston ring seal yeilds higher compression. I guess I am retarded then for following the advice of people who actualy did research and th pros that dynotuned my harley the day I bought it and broke it in on the dyne. RESEARCH BEFORE YOU COMMENT!!!
its an internal combustion engine, 4 stroke cycle. Liquid cooled and this method is used by plenty of racers. The bike is just a smaller displacement. Have you ever seen a top fuel dagster breaking their motors in before they run them? Now I realize they rebuild them all the time. Did you even read the stuff I asked you to? BTW I am a machinist and work with diesel engines daily and we have 4400 hp motors that we dont break in easy.
nice..now i'm waiting for him to respond lol. also what helps is using a special break-in oil such as royal purple. I used it in my straight 6 engine in my suv and have almost 140k miles on it. after using the break in oil, i went with Mobil1 Full synthetic. Compression is still high and i always beat the crap out of it. The "aggressive Break-in" idea worked for me, and thats my proof.
No seving or anything. Its just what people have ben told their while lives. You can hurt it doing this too if the heat gets too high. But don right you gain performance. It does get annoying sometimes. I have been through this a few times on here. Gets old when people are insistant on what their dad told them vs what actual research proves. I could care less how they break their car in, I know what I have done on all 4 of my new vehickes I have purchased in the last 4 years.
go to the g6 performance web site. Sam has all the info you need there. I had the origional prototype. It fits all g6's. I had it on an 06 3.5. Sounded awesome. You will need to get the dual exhaust valance from GM. Its like 70 bucks. You might find one for cheaper somewhere else.
The G6 gtp or gxp will be faster 0-60 and in the 1/4 but the renault if faster top end at around 147mph. The G6 is goverened to 115 stock. I had mine tuned and had it over 140 before I shut it down.
Wow you are a dumbass. Your cool guy accord isn't magic and special built to be super fast. That is all in your gay canadian mind. FUCK YOU BITCH!!!!!!
what do you think is a better engine the 3.9 auto or the 3.6 auto? i started looking at g6s and im not really sure what to go with the 06 gtp or 07 gto
3.6 hands down. More hp. 6 speed auto in the 3.6 the 3.9 has a 4 speed. The 3.6 is DOHC also. And you are running over a half sec quicker in the 1/4 stock. I have a friend with the 3.9 auto and he got small in the rearview real quick. Plus you can get the 07 GTP without the side mouldings. And they all come with the ultrabright wheels. Oh and you get a couple more MPG with the 07.
Hey Joe, Car sounds sweet as hell, Very agressive. I own an 08 GXP and am buying the GT-R Exhaust package. =). but do you by any chance know how to switch the MPH to KPH on the speedometer?
Does that have the slapshift 6 spd in it bc the 08 GXP does and i jus got one and got 500 miles on the i let her rip if u put it in manual its alot faster i think, and were did u get the cold air intake?
Yes it is the exact same car without the body kit. And the manumatic sucked. Too slow to react. People have gotten better times in auto. The cai is avalible on g6performance. Go take a look around. The tune was the biggest help on these cars.
Well it makes sence if you think about it. Sharp edges will cause scratches in the cylender walls. I wouldn't bullshit. Every car I have owned has been broken in like this. My bikes too. To each is own,I choose this method after reading up on and going to schools on the principals of internal combustion engines. It is all about the rings and how they seat. I change the pistons and everything attached in locomotives and we see alot of this stuff. And break in is turning the loco back on.
Its old knowledge to give a new engine light throttle and be gentle, the new EDUCATED knowledge says to do otherwise, and it has been proven time and time again to be in favor of hard acceleration, it gives the rings a more aggressive seat. What also helps is downshifting early and letting the vaccum of the engine push the rings against the walls.
Is there much torque steer in the GTP? I tried out a Saturn Aura XR and it had horrible torque steer, so I was just curious if it was present in the cousins too.
do a little research about hard brake in and get back to me moron. you loose 2-10% with crappy piston seal that comes from easy brake in. Thanks for your input but know what you are talking about before you talk crap big guy.
you're a stupid fuck if you're trying to convince me that redlining a car with 500 miles on it isn't bad for it. i've actually done my research and found that you shouldn't even go over 3k rpm until your first oil change/3000 miles to ensure that your engine lasts longest. i'm not a impatient jackass that would take the chance of harming my engine when it has under 3k miles just to put it on youtube.
Go fuck yourself bitch. I love lil internet tough guys. I don't give a fuck what you do with whatever POS you drive. I am a machinist and work on motors quite often. Modern motors are actually mostly broken in from the factory but the rings are the biggest issue in break in. rings are jagged which will leave gouges in the cylender walls of the block. This causes a drop in compression. Which will lower performance. I never said to redline it right off the showroom. Message me if you want proof.
mototuneusa. Go there and learn something about breakin by people that did actual research rather than listening to what their daddy said or what the dealer thinks they should do. PS if it were that bad for a motor why is my pretty much stock harley puttin down 127hp to the ground. All the internals are stock? Just a pipe pulley filter and race tuner. And the motor runs great and has perfect compression based on the readouts. But read a little something and you might learn. BITCH!!!
just wait until you hit 100,000. ANYTIME you redline a car, it's still bad for it. i mean obviously just going easy on the car all its life will probably make it last longer than someone who just floors it all the time. but regardless, it'll probably come to haunt you sooner or later, no time soon anyways, i still wouldn't feel comfortable until first oil change to fuck with it if i plan on keeping the car and driving it into the ground with miles.
This made me think of a question i had a while back. Does this car "feel fast"? My moms car, you can see the scenery passing fast but it doesnt feel like its going fast. does this car feel fast?
i don't think thats a 3.6...i think thats a 3.9L because the tach in the 3.6 goes up to 8,000rpm...if you count the numbers, the tach only goes up to 7,000 in this car!
Notice it is a white faced? It is from my old 3.5 g6 sedan I had before. Notice how the tach goes past the numbers? This is the 07 g6 gtp with the 252ho 3.6l vvt dohc v6 with the 6 speed auto.
I haven't heard a 3800 that sounded really good except for a GP GTP and thats only the whine that sounds good. I don't have a pushrod motor either. I'm DOHC.
My 3.8 didn't sound bad with an intake, and a full Flowmaster cat-back setup. Rather....(dare I say it?) "Ferrari-like" in the upper RPM's. I'd done quite a bit to it though, so.... yeah.
Most 3.8's with "exhausts" sound shitty, because they don't have that resonator "box" that the Flowmaster cat-back has, that sat under the passenger seat in an F-Body. That thing cancelled out a lot of the "squall" and weird resonance associated with that motor.
Wrong. The 08 Accord is both wider and longer than the G6... wheelbase on the sixer is a bit longer so you might have a tad more legroom, but the Accord is the slightly bigger car. The 07 Accord is wider as well.
Its a honda, which means. Better warranty, more reliable and will run a shit load longer.
I cant argue on the looks part thats just personaly opinion however my moms drives the G6 and i think its really small and poorly designed but im 6'5 so..
I have a 100k warranty with mine. All 07's offer that. Ive tried out pretty much every car in its class and this takes it. The Aura is nice too but not my style. Plus before any of my cars reach 40k I will have already traded it in for a new one. I only keep them for 1- 2 years.
Its alot quicker now;) Plus I weigh 200 less then the Aura. Just so you know R&T gave the Aura XR a 14.5 in the 1/4. It was eben or faster than the hemi charger.
Yeah the DOHC thing makes em sound way dif. I think it sounds like an indi car. Thats the best way to discribe it. The pushrod v6 is still a tough sounding motor though. I had the 3.5 before this.
Ya those 3.6L DOHC motors are sweet sounding - and powerful! I read that the 3.6L motor in the '08 cadillac STS makes 306 horsepower (direct injection/DOHC) which is just awesome. But I still love my old pushrod 3400 SFI haha it's low tech and low power but it's never let me down =)
its really annoying how few parts they have for the 3.6 you basically have doctor speed and vector and than of course a custom exhaust there needs to be more ECM options and some one like Injen should make a cold air intake too fit the 2007
Actually there is a guy that does a full manderal bent exhaust for these. Infact the one that is on my car was the first one sold. It ih a magna flow muf. It has dual 4 inch polished tips. Looks and sounds friggin sweet. Let me know if you want the contact info.
yea i did notice that.. i was wondering why cuz i kno that in 2007 theres only an automatic so it seemed weird that it was shifting at that high of an rpm... do u have the vector motorsports tune?
I am one of the guys talking with Chris wanting the tune. I need the ECM and TCM tuned so I will have to wait for him to do the fine tuning on the 07. He has done one for the 08 GXP. He claims it feels like a different car. Almost like CVT that ascually has balls. He saw a 17 hp peak gain but saw huge improvments across the entire rpm range.
These were a special order thing I did back in 06. A guy had them made but do notice that I am off the charts on the rmp. I had them in my 06 3.5. They just look better than the black ones.
man that sounds awesome!

joebro82 2 years ago
thats retarded, saying an agressive break it brings higher number. the numbers would be the same.
gypsykingg 2 years ago
I really dont feel like arguing with you. just go to motutuneusa and look for break in secrets. 300 engines tested so you read the results. Tighter piston ring seal yeilds higher compression. I guess I am retarded then for following the advice of people who actualy did research and th pros that dynotuned my harley the day I bought it and broke it in on the dyne. RESEARCH BEFORE YOU COMMENT!!!
joebro82 2 years ago
motorcycles are different to break in than cars. everytime i get a new mx bike it takes about 30-45 min to break in. wayy different
gypsykingg 2 years ago
its an internal combustion engine, 4 stroke cycle. Liquid cooled and this method is used by plenty of racers. The bike is just a smaller displacement. Have you ever seen a top fuel dagster breaking their motors in before they run them? Now I realize they rebuild them all the time. Did you even read the stuff I asked you to? BTW I am a machinist and work with diesel engines daily and we have 4400 hp motors that we dont break in easy.
joebro82 2 years ago
nice..now i'm waiting for him to respond lol. also what helps is using a special break-in oil such as royal purple. I used it in my straight 6 engine in my suv and have almost 140k miles on it. after using the break in oil, i went with Mobil1 Full synthetic. Compression is still high and i always beat the crap out of it. The "aggressive Break-in" idea worked for me, and thats my proof.

No seving or anything. Its just what people have ben told their while lives. You can hurt it doing this too if the heat gets too high. But don right you gain performance. It does get annoying sometimes. I have been through this a few times on here. Gets old when people are insistant on what their dad told them vs what actual research proves. I could care less how they break their car in, I know what I have done on all 4 of my new vehickes I have purchased in the last 4 years.

hey joe quick question.....how much is the gtr exhaust and where can i order it......btw i only got the 3.5 v6 so will it fit?
pye0123456789 2 years ago
go to the g6 performance web site. Sam has all the info you need there. I had the origional prototype. It fits all g6's. I had it on an 06 3.5. Sounded awesome. You will need to get the dual exhaust valance from GM. Its like 70 bucks. You might find one for cheaper somewhere else.

joebro82 3 years ago
what do you think is a better engine the 3.9 auto or the 3.6 auto? i started looking at g6s and im not really sure what to go with the 06 gtp or 07 gto
joe00pimp 3 years ago
3.6 hands down. More hp. 6 speed auto in the 3.6 the 3.9 has a 4 speed. The 3.6 is DOHC also. And you are running over a half sec quicker in the 1/4 stock. I have a friend with the 3.9 auto and he got small in the rearview real quick. Plus you can get the 07 GTP without the side mouldings. And they all come with the ultrabright wheels. Oh and you get a couple more MPG with the 07.
joebro82 3 years ago
That is done with the radio. Its in the options like resetting ur oil life and stuff like that.

will the car shift for you if you redlinine for a couple of seconds?

honestly I don't know about couple sec. I never held it that long but it will bounce off the rev limiter.

no it just stays at the redline no bouncing or shifting for you. It will however downgear for you if your going to slow for the gear your in.

Yes it is the exact same car without the body kit. And the manumatic sucked. Too slow to react. People have gotten better times in auto. The cai is avalible on g6performance. Go take a look around. The tune was the biggest help on these cars.
joebro82 3 years ago
that's crazyshit if new engines actually are better off with hard throttle, I've read up the complete opposite of that on other sites
Hellz420 3 years ago
Well it makes sence if you think about it. Sharp edges will cause scratches in the cylender walls. I wouldn't bullshit. Every car I have owned has been broken in like this. My bikes too. To each is own,I choose this method after reading up on and going to schools on the principals of internal combustion engines. It is all about the rings and how they seat. I change the pistons and everything attached in locomotives and we see alot of this stuff. And break in is turning the loco back on.
joebro82 3 years ago
Its old knowledge to give a new engine light throttle and be gentle, the new EDUCATED knowledge says to do otherwise, and it has been proven time and time again to be in favor of hard acceleration, it gives the rings a more aggressive seat. What also helps is downshifting early and letting the vaccum of the engine push the rings against the walls.

Hellz420 3 years ago 3
do a little research about hard brake in and get back to me moron. you loose 2-10% with crappy piston seal that comes from easy brake in. Thanks for your input but know what you are talking about before you talk crap big guy.
joebro82 3 years ago
you're a stupid fuck if you're trying to convince me that redlining a car with 500 miles on it isn't bad for it. i've actually done my research and found that you shouldn't even go over 3k rpm until your first oil change/3000 miles to ensure that your engine lasts longest. i'm not a impatient jackass that would take the chance of harming my engine when it has under 3k miles just to put it on youtube.
Hellz420 3 years ago
Go fuck yourself bitch. I love lil internet tough guys. I don't give a fuck what you do with whatever POS you drive. I am a machinist and work on motors quite often. Modern motors are actually mostly broken in from the factory but the rings are the biggest issue in break in. rings are jagged which will leave gouges in the cylender walls of the block. This causes a drop in compression. Which will lower performance. I never said to redline it right off the showroom. Message me if you want proof.
joebro82 3 years ago
mototuneusa. Go there and learn something about breakin by people that did actual research rather than listening to what their daddy said or what the dealer thinks they should do. PS if it were that bad for a motor why is my pretty much stock harley puttin down 127hp to the ground. All the internals are stock? Just a pipe pulley filter and race tuner. And the motor runs great and has perfect compression based on the readouts. But read a little something and you might learn. BITCH!!!
joebro82 3 years ago
just wait until you hit 100,000. ANYTIME you redline a car, it's still bad for it. i mean obviously just going easy on the car all its life will probably make it last longer than someone who just floors it all the time. but regardless, it'll probably come to haunt you sooner or later, no time soon anyways, i still wouldn't feel comfortable until first oil change to fuck with it if i plan on keeping the car and driving it into the ground with miles.
Hellz420 3 years ago

i don't think thats a 3.6...i think thats a 3.9L because the tach in the 3.6 goes up to 8,000rpm...if you count the numbers, the tach only goes up to 7,000 in this car!

joebro82 4 years ago
My 3.8 didn't sound bad with an intake, and a full Flowmaster cat-back setup. Rather....(dare I say it?) "Ferrari-like" in the upper RPM's. I'd done quite a bit to it though, so.... yeah.
revolutionday1 4 years ago
hmmm.
joebro82 4 years ago
Most 3.8's with "exhausts" sound shitty, because they don't have that resonator "box" that the Flowmaster cat-back has, that sat under the passenger seat in an F-Body. That thing cancelled out a lot of the "squall" and weird resonance associated with that motor.

I have a 100k warranty with mine. All 07's offer that. Ive tried out pretty much every car in its class and this takes it. The Aura is nice too but not my style. Plus before any of my cars reach 40k I will have already traded it in for a new one. I only keep them for 1- 2 years.
joebro82 4 years ago
It really doesn't. It's definitely not quicker, and the G6 GTP gets better gas mileage than the EX-L V6.
And by my opinion only, the G6 GTP coupe is much better looking.

Ya those 3.6L DOHC motors are sweet sounding - and powerful! I read that the 3.6L motor in the '08 cadillac STS makes 306 horsepower (direct injection/DOHC) which is just awesome. But I still love my old pushrod 3400 SFI haha it's low tech and low power but it's never let me down =)
ghbbb123 4 years ago
its really annoying how few parts they have for the 3.6 you basically have doctor speed and vector and than of course a custom exhaust there needs to be more ECM options and some one like Injen should make a cold air intake too fit the 2007

Actually there is a guy that does a full manderal bent exhaust for these. Infact the one that is on my car was the first one sold. It ih a magna flow muf. It has dual 4 inch polished tips. Looks and sounds friggin sweet. Let me know if you want the contact info.
joebro82 4 years ago
yea i did notice that.. i was wondering why cuz i kno that in 2007 theres only an automatic so it seemed weird that it was shifting at that high of an rpm... do u have the vector motorsports tune?
sallies08 4 years ago
I am one of the guys talking with Chris wanting the tune. I need the ECM and TCM tuned so I will have to wait for him to do the fine tuning on the 07. He has done one for the 08 GXP. He claims it feels like a different car. Almost like CVT that ascually has balls. He saw a 17 hp peak gain but saw huge improvments across the entire rpm range.
