Dirty, Dirty Procharged and Cammed '05 GTO

[bottomline2000]

probably means a G8 since its 4 door and comes in GXP trim.

[GlenSpCO]

Ironically, you are almost on empty. I have a dead stock 05 GTO and can get 25 mpg on the highway, even a high speeds. Not a fuel snob. I really dig the cam lope. Thinking about what to do to mine. Only 17,000 miles. You know, it seems like most of the GTO's that I see are low miles. Thinking about a swap to a GXP. More (I know, I know) practical.

[barbieboyGTO]

@GlenSpCO you obviously dont own a gto, since there is no such thing as a gxp trim

[mikepedrick]

@GlenSpCO I'm not sure what you're getting at here. Do fuel-efficient vehicles not ever run low on fuel? I'll grant you that the modifications I've made to my GTO have compromised its fuel economy, but a) it's not by any means a daily driver and b) closing in on 700rwhp, you sort of assume you'll be filling up more often. /shrug

[BullatGaming]

@mikepedrick Ironically im also pretty sure you had 3/4 of a tank in there to. So im like you im not sure what in the hell GlenSpCO is talking about being almost on empty.

[BullatGaming]

@GlenSpCO 3/4 of a tank is almost empty? i better find a gas station FAST then.

[XxTLowexX]

Did you use stock internals or upgraded? If stock,how did it hold up?

[mikepedrick]

@XxTLowexX Bottom end is still stock.

[rillifane01]

How did your fuel injectors and fuel pump hold out when you through in the D1SC? I'm considering putting that in my 06.

[mikepedrick]

@rillifane01 Installed a Lonnies Pumper kit at the same time as the blower. Two pumps in the tank; second pump activates when I go into boost. 60lb. injectors at 60psi static fuel pressure. Haven't had a problem yet, though I'm getting uncomfortably high on my injector duty cycles with the 60s.

[ms3cammedc6]

@mikepedrick thats crazy cause i have 617 rwhp on my ls2 vette with stock inj and pump...but its with a 150 shot, not a blower

[hurley242584]

yeah im in love with your car

[VOAOURKZ]

are you still using stock rear end / tranny?

[mikepedrick]

@VOAOURKZ The stock limited slip was replaced with an Eaton TrueTrac, but the rest of the driveline is still stock. The transmission finally gave up (there's a video here of that run). Replacing it with a 4L80.

[ljg527]

I would do dirty, dirty things to this car..

[GfieldGTO]

Are you still on stock bottom end running 11lb?

[mikepedrick]

@GfieldGTO Yes - aftermarket cam, pushrods, and valvesprings. Otherwise stock bottom end.

[GfieldGTO]

@mikepedrick Yupp I have a cam, pushrods and valve springs. Watch out man thats cutting close even with 11lb. I run 8 just to be sure, but its your car. Where did you get your dashhawk at?

[mikepedrick]

@GfieldGTO It's been awhile, but I think I actually got it from an eBay vendor. As for pushing the envelope, well... I do that sometimes. The drivetrain is stock, too, except for a TrueTrac differential. Axles, driveshaft, etc. are stock.

[89Ranger302]

@GfieldGTO lsx's can take the boost got a buddy runnin 15 (single turbo) in a 6.0ed sonomma with just headstuds and z06 cam, it may not last the longest but rolling burnouts startin at 65 got me a believer in lsx power.

[boostedsedan]

Can't wait til my s10 sounds like this.

[f34rthe4banger]

Wow your intake is loud as shit

[ryanjofre]

11.19....Dirty Dirty. I'd love to have a streetable Car that could run times like that.

[mikepedrick]

@ryanjofre Ran 11.03 the day the transmission popped.  :)

[rextheracer]

mannnn 17:1 afrs? pretty lean...

[mikepedrick]

@rextheracer - "Lean" at idle on E85. AFRs at WOT are fine.

[rextheracer]

@mikepedrick ahhhh ethanol...thatd explain it...haha

[randombk82894]

seems to be idleing a litle lean

[fast92vette]

how many pounds of boost?

[mikepedrick]

@fast92vette - about 11psi.

[StreetRacingGTP]

Where did you get the A-Pillar gauge cluster? All I've found is the center dash ones. Looks and sounds good.

[blabarr82]

That thing sounds sooo SICK!!!! Do me a favor.......keep it clean!

[ChinuPrimusa]

Ну хотьбы помыл, что-ли! Суперская мафынка!

[GPVlog]

yeh its dirty but it will outrun most cars on the road today.

[scarface70706]

wow nice gto man. need to clean it though lol.if i didnt live in cali i would have bought the d1 but the p1 is doing just fine at 8 psi... whats your numbers?

[mikepedrick]

@scarface70706 Last time I dynoed, it was 672rwhp/556rwtq. Best of 11.19@125 at Bandimere. 5800' ASL. I've made some changes since then; hoping for as close as possible to 700rwhp. Bottom end and transmission are still stock.

[scarface70706]

@mikepedrick Nice numbers! these LS bottom ends can take a beating. good luck with the build

[bulldog190]

@mikepedrick i wonder how many miles that'll last

[mikepedrick]

@bulldog190 - the 4L65E finally gave up earlier this month. The stock LS2 is still going strong.

[bulldog190]

@mikepedrick thats amazing..

[fastmontess7]

Sounds sick..did u order parts from speed inc?..I am having them install a p1sc

[WoWiMARaMzFaN]

really clean car....

[DudeWithTheGoat]

wow dude that color is rare... and i love it haha i have only seen a few goats with this paint though i wish gm would stop being a dick and drop buick and get pontiac back to work and start making fucking GTOs and Trans Ams.

[need2speed94]

@DudeWithTheGoat that would be amazing!

[yappa1987]

Nice Holden. Aussies make good cars.

[bigdjc89]

what size exhaust do u have from the headers back?

[mikepedrick]

@bigdjc89 3" from the headers to the cat-back, then 2.5" to the tips. No cats.  In this vid, the cat-back was a Magnaflow.

[bigdjc89]

what sixe exhaust do you have from the headers back?

[550HPGTO]

You think if i procharged mine it would make as much power? =]

[fastjoon92]

She can be dirty all she wants...long as the insides are clean!! Hahaha Sick car by the way!

[jdhinds1234]

where did you get the a pillar cluster i want one so freaggin bad for my goat

[grandmayolli]

i get why it says dirty haha nice car though man real nice

[05ls2goat]

clean your car, doric. I mean ////. I mean poo. :p

[jpap967]

it sure is dirty! lol!

[xtreme01hac10docter]

That's one bad ass Goat!!!!!

[agentry880]

They look good.

[agentry880]

Nice! Are you running a mech. or electrical boost gauge?

[mikepedrick]

@agentry880 - Thanks. The boost and fuel pressure gauges are mechanical and sourced from a company in California called SCSS. They're not anywhere near the cheapest option available, but they match the factory instruments way too well to pass up.

[mikepedrick]

@mikepedrick - Crap. I am an idiot. They're *electrical*, not mechanical. Don't know why I typed that. Sorry for the confusion.

[Genocide4130]

Did this car just get sold at a Police auction?

[mikepedrick]

@Genocide4130 - Not that I'm aware of.  It's still in my garage.

[LineEmUp504]

@mikepedrick haha!

[tin701]

@mikepedrick lol

[jtdrye]

Holy crap!

Dude, you have an awesome set-up!!
