351 RWHP / 361 RWTQ in case someone can't view the video from work.

[99-LS1-SS]

Is that corrected? It seems like the other 2 or 3 dynos of GXP's have been around 364 rwhp. I wonder what the difference is?

That is corrected, but like G8GT721 said, it does only have 19 miles on it.

Others have said our dyno is somewhat conservative. Just as a comparison a stock G8 GT makes 315-320 RWHP and a stock LS2 C6 Vette makes 340 RWHP with a 6-Speed.

Could be any number of things. Different type of dyno etc. Not that uncommon to see a 5-10hp between same cars. I think there as like a 6hp difference between
my G8 and Mikes baseline runs, but they weren't done the same day same conditions either.

remember its not just the .2 liter difference accounting for the added 50rwhp... and yes it would be pretty sick!!

What else is all adding to the ~ 50rwhp increase from the stock G8 GT engine to the stock G8 GXP engine?

- more aggressive cam?
- other stuff?


Just curious about this....... obviously.... :nud: :)

Well it is an LS3, not an L99. So all the things that make an LS3 more powerful than L76.

It'll be there... it'll always be there.. lol

You'll love the windows. Just like the white Mustang. Limo on all windows and 35% on the entire windshield.

Hopefully the roads are dry tomorrow, Dan will be out of the office and left me with the keys. It got dirty coming home from the dealership in the rain, I'll just have to wash it for him. :D

L99 is what the automatic Camaro gets and it has AFM/DOD like the L76.
Both GXPs, manual and auto, get the LS3.

What a beautiful beast!

Cheers!
