Pontiac G8 GT Magnacharger Supercharged 0-80MPH Test Video

[metalmanjakson01]

yep i want one really bad but unfortunantly it will probably never happen.

[Slyther83]

you should get a torque converter while youre at it tho- awesome setup you got already.

[Slyther83]

i so badly want to supercharge or twin turbo charge my g8, but im afraid of losing the engine at 50-75k miles

[cooksta3276]

@Slyther83 Use an STS twin setup. If you're not punching it, it's just bypassing the boost. With no other mods a gxp will get 525hp and 575tq at the wheels, that's with no tune either. You could run low 12's and still get 30mpg. Supercharger isn't the best idea for long term reliability.

[Slyther83]

@cooksta3276 right now I got a borla cb, american racing header longtubes, vararam intake, SLP UD pulley, and the livernois stage 1 non dod cam. it floats around 425 rwhp atm- this is a GT tho not a GXP. i might go turbo down the road. thats pushin 10 grand after install tho- vs the 5 grand in mods thus far. i notice a big diff in accel with 10" wides in the rear- no more chirping between gears.

@Slyther83 True...you have to draw the line somewhere between everyday racer and weekend track racer. That's getting expensive. STS should be about $5K, but you've already put a ton in this car.

@motoxkidazza wouldn't that be a downgrade? I thought they were heavier?

[Omnis2]
