Hello everyone!
I just aquired a new '08 G8 on the 30th of Oct. I opted for the V6 since it will be the DD. I'd hate to sacrifice a GT model to the next few years of Buffalo winters. I have a '04 GTO "summer toy" that takes care of my V8 power urges.
I have to admit, the V6 isn't really a slouch considering the 0-60 time is the same as my fathers '96 Impala SS LT1 V8.
Looking forward to spending time here learning the in's and out's of this car.
Thanks again GRRRR8 for the invite!
Mich

Welcome! Most dont realize the V6 has a ton of potential. The 88-93 Mustangs that were loved by the masses are no match stock for stock. There is some things that can be done to wake them up too!

I'd like to wake mine up, what might you suggest?

Roto Fab has a CAI now. I would contact Vector Motorsports about the tune. I saw somewhere will there will be a dual exhaust kit for it also.

I was under the impression that the RotoFab CAI was for the GT and very little benefit would be seen in the V6.
