    Default What mods to make G8 run w/ LX?

    Is there anything that can be done to make the G8 or any other G run with my coupe.....The fastest one I've run was still 10 cars back Not really sure of the point in modifying these cars.....the only thing I have seen worth a dam with a "G" in it is the "spot".
    93 LX - 347 and lots of dope
    .....just wish King Obama would buy me another one like he promised.....

    I remember you from another board. Name a few board that you are/were a member of.
    SOLD: 2009 Maverick Silver G8 GXP M6
    Current Vehicle: 1984 Chevy K10 (it's red and redneck)
    New Vehicle: 1972 2wd K5 Blazer. It's being built right now. Link to the build is HERE

    I have a feeling I might know this person. I could be wrong, but is there a Dr. in the house?

    >Whats done to the coupe?

    If he's the same newby dood from the moddedmustangs forum, he "claims" to have a turbo'ed 5.4 pushing 900 hp, "but it's not running yet"

    If that's the case, a stock v6 would beat 'im. No-one there believes him either...

    Do you live in Texas? We might be able to figure out how many mods you dont need if you do.

    And the fact that it's a nicer car than the LX...
