Removed the baffle and slapped together some parts to make a whacked out intake just to see what the results would look like.

  • Those were from the previous run. The 510 was at 100RPM. We're looking at 342.9HP @ 5500RPM and 354.3TQ @ 4700RPM. Pretty sick for just a tune and a makeshift intake!

  • those r pretty good numbers for a new car!

    So wat kinda tune u have on it, other than the intake!

    cause i'm plannin on gettin one, and i wouldnt mind to make it work a bit harder :P just waitin for it to get to Canada!

  • I had my tune done at Vector Motorsports. The intake had to come off because it wasn't fabbed...just a mock setup. The current numbers are:

    Stock RWHP: 304.8@5700

    Tuned RWHP: 335.1@5600

    Stock TQ: 315.3@4600

    Tuned TQ: 348.0@4700

    MPGs actually increased about 3MPG although I expect that number to drop closer to 1-2MPG.

  • So when Pontiac says it gets around 360 HP they mean at the fly wheel then, right??

  • Yeah...estimate about 20% drivetrain loss on the Automatic although if you run the stock numbers, it looks like its closer to 15.5%.

    I'm pretty sure that unless it says RWHP, that most HP numbers are rated at the flywheel. I could be wrong though.

see all

  • the G8 was a let down for me i thought it would be like the GTO but better...it looks better but its slower i guess like the 5.7 to the 6.0 GTO i gotta wait for the G8 GXP

  • 304 at wheels - underrated! Nice! Gotta love the LS engines :-)

  • the gt is also a 6 speed

  • six speed auto and now manual just watched the test video few days ago i should be testing that later this month in texas at gm's test track its great havin a brother that works for gm lol

  • The GT is also a six speed

  • it 40 more hp if you put a little money in the gt youl get that but the gxp is a 6speed so maybe i will be wtin for the gxp 2 lol

  • I'm waiting on the GXP.

  • Why dont you put a KB super charger on it.....you will really kick some ass then. Im debating on getting one myself

  • Negative. thats called a TQ spike.  it doesnt get 510tq lol.
