What are the specifics on the exhaust? I like that it's just enough. Looking to order this or something VERY close to it. I'll leave the loud and rumbly to my Chevelle.
Of all the cat-back systems for the G8, I have to say Magnaflow's kit is the most disappointing. The build quality is there, but the sound is just a few notches better than stock. I can't see spending that kind of money for such a weak sounding system. I see the uploader has Corsa now. Probably a better kit.
Yo man you don't have a rear main seal leak or something on that order do ya? At 0:07 it looks like oil on the oil pan. Just lettin ya know. Great sounding G8 BTW.
ur car is realy clean and well maintained ( Knock On Woods) here in Middle East ur car is called ( Lumina SS ) but its originally a ( Holden Commodore )
sounds mean even with the 4k limiter. i hate the 4k limit. my dad has one his 04 ram and i hate it. you would think it wouldnt have the limiter cuz its a sports package with such a bad ass hemi, but still it has one. thats the only think i hate about new sports trucks and muscle cars
My 98 Firebird has the limiter at 4k in park/neutral too. lol. But yours sounds better, mine bounces at 4k slower than yours. I know you don't have it and tuned it out now but sweet anyways.
PONTIAC FTW i lov my 06 GP i runs like a cheetah on red bull and thats lightly modded......i cant wait to, put in a great cam, supercharger,etc To make her faster GM is and will always be idiots for axing the brand
My bro has magnaflows for his g8 and and a rodaflow cold air intake (not sure if i spelled it rite) and the horsepower is like around 405 now before it was 360.. I think these are the same ones he has
all Australian made car sent to usa and rebadged, although the engines and gear boxes are made in usa!! through GM Motors, its great to see australian designed and made cars in usa
Mate - the thing has US number plates, a bloke with a US accent and the driver's on the left side of the vehicle... it's not an Aussie car.
Mind you, the VE SS or the GTO with the Monaro chassis over here have the LS2 engines though... my boss has an 07 GTO with heaps of work done to it... sounds wayyy better than this one... mind you, this exhaust sounds real nice.
yes it is a aussie car i went to the dealership and they said that it is a aussie car look it up on wikipedia it will have under "similar cars" or something the holden version
They make these in Australia, yes... no problems with that, but THIS IS AN AMERICAN CAR! Look at the plates! Look at the side the dude's driving on! Listen to the Yankee accent! We don't have "Pontiac G8s" here in Australia. They're known as Holden GTOs and that's it. My boss has a worked GTO and I seen all the new VE HSVs and R8s here with those engines...
You sir, you are a retard. What your saying means that if i buy a Ferrari, and take it to Cambodia, my Ferrari is no longer an Italian car, nay, nay it is a Cambodian car...
That car is situated in America, but it is still an Australian car. A Holden Commodore to be exact. I have one.
Its a holden monaro... which in the 60s, the monaro was a rebadged GTO. Then inturn, Holden decided to make a newer monaro and it ended up coming to american shores and the newer GTO is a rebadged monaro...
Mate, it's American. They have the same cars here in Australia, but they're not Pontiacs. GM make Pontiac and Holden, but that's about it. It most likely was MADE in Australia and then exported, like Australia does a lot with Toyota, but at the end of the day, it's an American car. Pontiac G8 with driver on the left side? American. This car is the equivalent of a VE SS... look it up and you'll see what I mean.
@08g8gt Hey man is it safe to put on an aftermarket exhaust with the bumper to bumper and Power train Warranties? Cause I am dying to put the Corsa on, but I don't want to void the warranty.
i dont get the limiter, never heard of tht shitt unless its a gay ass corvettes skip shift or the red line limiter, if i wanna rev it a lil whats the fuckinn problemm?????? is it gonna explode if it revs past 4000 in neutral
as far as i know there isn't problem with revving an engine close to its redline without any load on it, but then again i'm not an engineer, just an enthusiast.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Actually, GM is going out of business because they built sh*tty quality cars like your f-body for so long. If anything, the G8 would have SAVED them had it had more time, as it's the best quality and performing car they've had under the Pontiac label in a LONG time (yes, I know it's a Holden). Unfortunately, too little, too late for Pontiac.
You're aware that they stopped making the f-body due to lack of sales, right? You're also aware that a fully loaded 325hp SS coupe cost $29k ($33k for an '02)? By comparison, 7 YEARS LATER, a fully loaded 361hp G8 GT runs $32k, doing mid to high 13s (almost identical to the last f-bodies), hitting 13 flat, if not 12s with nothing more than a tune & CAI. And the f-bodies can't even TOUCH the G8 in fit, finish and quality of materials. Not even CLOSE. So what was that about overpriced again?
Hmmm. I see your point. The G8 is a nice car. Good price. I'd buy one, but pontiac isn't there no more. A shame, but obama seems to know whats up so we'll see. The F-body was sexy. and the value of my car is going up every year now. I love it.
By the way... The F body was an excellent seller for every year. The reason why it was discontinued was because of the lack of innovation. GM ran out of ideas for it, so they came out with new vehicles.
I'm quite the GM nerd, CamaroSS, and the sales stats the last few years of the f-bodies beg to differ with you on that. It is THOSE cars that were overpriced for what you got, but instead, GM being the typical retards they are, thought the lack of sales was due to "no one wanting a big, gas guzzling V8 RWD car anymore". Guess they learned their lesson on that, as their V8 line-up is back in full swing.
That was a good move putting this limiter on here when in park b/c it's really, really bad for the car to be reving the crap out of it. Atleast it's removable like you said though.
oops i farted again. i give credit to the camera man tho, i like the way he thinks, he found walls on both sides to make the car sound louder, nice job
Jeremy Clarkson said this car is like the cheaper equivalency of the BMW M5. That is a big accomplishment for GM. And by the way, you have a nice sounding G8.
eh, he said that about the Vauxhall VXR8, which at the time of his review had the LS2 engine. The GXP would be it's equivalent in power and suspension, though honestly, the GT isn't that far off.
I cut the back mufflers off of my girls g8 gt and it sounds like magnaflow but more agressive and way cheaper $65.00. I notice at least 5 to 10 more horsepower. I ran it at the track with just a conical filter and 91 oct back in October and ran 13.8sec in the 1/4.
After hearing Vettes with Corsas, nothing else compares...I personally think this sounds like crap. I think my stock Ram 1500 Hemi with stock exhaust sounds meaner. And I love Pontiac too, so it pains me to say that.
meh, my 3.1L in my monte carlo sounds about the same with an Xcellerator muffler and low restriction cat. Granted this thing probably makes double the hp of my engine but as far as sound goes I'll take my car's sound to this.
I don't think you have heard a stock G8 then. from behind, no matter how much you rev the car, the sound of the exhaust resembles almost nothing of a V8! thats what happens when there are 3 resonators and 2 HUGE mufflers. the other reason the cars are so quite stock is so you can't hear the drone of DOD/AFM when it kicks down to 4 cylinders.
from jegs the part number looks to be 642-11225 (2-1/4'') or 642-11226 (2-1/2''). i don't know what diameter they are as i bought the Magnaflow axle-back off of someone locally. he never told me what they were...
