Grand National GNX

[Blessedtouch]

If you have to worry about sucking a bird into your engine. It's not s street car any more.

[knucklebaby1]

1076.7 horsepower. Now thats a fucking GM!

[ninety9ws6ta]

@1:16 you can only hear the turbos at full boost. Simply amazing!

[a4Audi2153]

dammm how fast top speed can it go?

[pewpscoop]

@a4Audi2153 only limit is the gear setup....prolly do 300 if it was set up right

[a4Audi2153]

@pewpscoop 300mph? ha wow idk is i believe that but if you got the stock autp 4 speed then the gears are set up for about 180 i think but theroetically i would say 200 that car would be so unstable and the wind resistence is terrible on that car haha

[USMCfosho]

I thought it was gonna take off! I <3 Buick GNX and GN

[archdude21]

schwing

[jelleuhh]

@elchicoboy

oyea that's a v8 baby!

[Draganeyes]

@jelleuhh it actually if its the stock motor (which i think it is) its a 3.8 or 4.1 buick v6 motor

[jelleuhh]

@Draganeyes

True i konw it's the V6 that is standard in the GNX but my ears definitly tell me there's 8 monsters in there, anybody can hear that ;-)

[my92d350]

@Draganeyes grand nationals came stock with a fuel injected 3.8 turbo. the 4.1 was a carbed turbo. and chris chows gn is nothing even close to stock with that stage 2 block and twin turbos.

[protegeaustin]

with this car u get beauty and the BEAST!

[Jarnutt]

This is Chris Chow from Tucson, Ive met him at Turbo Buick meets, its a fully built V8, not the stock 3.8

[jaymanleonard]

ultimate V8 roar! Who needs porn?

[RuggerFlail]

@jaymanleonard Except that this car doesnt have a V8. You fail.

[RuggerFlail]

@jaymanleonard Unless for some reason he decided to drop a V8 in it??

[jaymanleonard]

@RuggerFlail Which is what he did.

[Niop007]

That thing is a beast. But if this is one of the original GNX's, why would you do that to it?

[ffgew22]

I'd want to race that thing from a stop light just to see how BADLY i'd get beaten.

[PrinzII]

Sigh.....

While it is true that stock GNs/GNXs have a single turbo V6, this one does not. It actually has a TT V8 as evidenced from Fast Track Performance's site.

"Upon further investigation, "Chris Chow's Grand National. Powered by a Twin Turbo Small Block. It is supposedly Rob Reiger's old TTSB out of his S-10."

[jaymanleonard]

fucking size of those turbos!!! Want one!

[aestheticsoldier]

how fucking gangster is that? two exposed turbos? I have to own a GNX someday

[Jimbo5123]

its not in anyway stock lol

[aestheticsoldier]

really? I was so sure that Buick would mass produce an 800 HP car with two exposed turbos sticking out the hood. Even a stock GNX looks great though, they were instant classics in the way few cars are

[certifiedThizzeR]

whoa..

[dkv674]

S o n o f a  g u n

[Phoenixfire360]

these cars are capable of so much. the gnx and the supra are the 2 greatest 6cylinder turbos.

capable of so much with so little.

although id have a gnx over a supra anyday of the week.

[xxSHaToWxx]

wow

[Tomorrow5O]

wtf is that?

[dieselp0w3r]

1987 Twin turbo big block v-8 Buick grand national gnX

[benarovi]

what? its a v6 tt

[Pacerace100]

GNX's arent v8,s theyre V6's ;)

[dodge69874]

Holy mother of god! It's beautiful.

[skinchen]

You sir.....Have built a GOD

[betuski89]

WOW ! im speechless

[warftrat87]

i will give u a leg to drive it! and maybe a arm too... but after i get to drive it!

[charliegrs]

this was the most terrifying and orgasmic thing ive ever seen

[tredeep]

Holy mother of God...!!!!!!!.

[redvision350]

Ford is supposed to make a twin turbo v6 Mustang. I wonder if it would be just as fast as the GNX?

[SilveradoSon]

Unlikely, unless some major revisions to the current mustang engine are put into place. However taking a twin turbo to the V-8 could definitely make a competitor. Mustangs are odd cars too. You either end up with a lemon, or get a really good working vehicle.

[Panditha666]

go die now rice boy!!!

[Panditha666]

shut up rice boy!

[robsnolongernmuskoka]

huh wtf are you on salena lmao

try looking them up on wikipedia

nextup try looking up terrace bay dragfest or drags on youtube , no we have no cars here in kanada we all use sleddogs

[bigorangetrucker]

bone stock GNX's can smoke a Z06 in the 1/4 mile. They ran 11's on the track right off the showroom floor.

you're the Piece of SHIT!

[skeetman842]

i havent seen too many POS's light up the rollers on a chassis dyno...

[600SELV12]

On W.O.T. I thought the body would implode!

[isphius]

wastegates open under boost not when you let off. That would be a bov. Nothing broke on the car that you can tell from the video. Just smoked em and let off.

[toesuf94]

it is more than likely the wastegates opening when he gets ooff of it...but what an awesome car!

[mrvipgoetter]

dude your funny lol his exhaust comes out the fenders and since the waste gate dumps to the exhaust theory is shoot. lmao

[Showstopper29]

at about 1:25-26 you see flakes of ceiling commin off.

[pazzollo]

dear god......... uhhhhh.......wow

[dvwart]

Okay as cool as that was something blew up on that car. he might of burned up a little rubber on the dyno, Not sure because you cant see where the rear wheels are that well, but come on he blew somthing up that is where all the smoke came from.

[banzai857]

that is the sex!

[pandarojo]

brutal

[jrd676]

that is insane

[lopsidedscampi]

WoW...

thats all i have to say

[JohnCuePublik]

how many dogs came running into the shop at full boost

[mybuickskill6979]

dude did you blow a head gasket or something cause that smoke looks horrible. i love the finger killer turbos stick out the hood. asbsolutely lovely!! good shit!!

[fordguy44]

dude he was burnin out in the dyno

[mybuickskill6979]

ahh sound like something blew though so yeah lol my mistake

[ekincam]

That high pitch whine, like a tea kettle, is from the turbos spooling.

[cameltoe1986]

[jackandcoffee1145]

H O L Y $ }{ I T ! ! ! !
