Just thought I would drop a few video's here for you guy's. The first two vids is of my car on last years mods... back then I was putting down 250hp and 350 ft lbs.
MOst GTPer's get a gauge pod. That is a good way to tell that they are modded. It won't, fortunately , tell you how modded. Other things to listen for.... the louder the supercharger, the smaller the pulley in most cases (more boost). Other than that, just the regular things, listen for a cam etc...
Yes I was putting down 350ft lbs to the ground... it's the blower... having 100ft lbs more torque than hp is normal. This is before the N2O and half the mods below.
I have a pretty long mods list at this point. The major things are:
and of course all the other supporting mods, colder plugs, 3" exhaust, FWI etc... The car should be right around the 12.3-12.5 range on the motor and the 11.7-12.0 on a 75-100 shot. With the car tuned properly I'm hoping for (motor/N20) 320/400+hp and 400+/450+ ft lbs.
I thought I was going to get flamed for the video's..... you guy's rock!!!

No 03 Cobra vids at the moment. I assure you that as soon as it gets nice enough outside... that is the number one car on my list.
A GTP is the supercharged version of a Grand Prix. Not bad stock but a very heavy car. 3.8 s/c. Cars that are stock with forced induction tend to respond to mods better than NA cars.

Dude no way we would flame you for that car. I give you more than most other people in the same time range with mustangs, and I think I speak for everyone when I say,that thing is badass.

Grand Touring Package. It is NOT a Grand AM.. lol. It is a Grand Prix. 3800lb fwd 250 crank hp stock (260 on the new ones). It comes stock with a Eaton roots type m90 on it. Yeah... you think these cars are sleepers... wait till you come accorss a Regal or Bonneville running same times if not quicker than me. They have the same motor and NO ONE expects to see a Regal or Bonneville move like that. They are just as capable as a GTP, just maybe 100 pounds heavier.

Once again... you guy's rock!
I have always been a fan of the newer Bonnie's. They are just sick looking sedans.
Did you beat the mach 1 in the vid? I couldn't tell. That is one fast gtp!
Yes I did. That is one of my good friends. He's never beaten me at the track although I've only beaten him once on the street. Much more traction at the track... my only advatage over that car is I'm putting more torque on the ground.... to be to use it, I have to have good traction. The street rarely provides that. if you watch the vid again, you'll notice a little w that comes on on my clock below the time. The announcer also says left lane wins if you listen closely.
