That is good info. I'm not a huge fan of the Solo axlebacks. They sound great @ WOT but during regular city driving, it's a bit much for me. Great to see there are other alternatives.Originally Posted by lg68jcu

They are great for a daily driver. They probably flow about as good as anything out there as well. Here is a link to a free rev video. The last rev was up to about 3500 rpms

Who's going to be the first twin turbo v6 in the 11s!!!
2009 Pontiac G8 GT
D1 Procharged
11.69@119
Redline
I know I am pushing to get into the 14s and I am nowhere close. To the best of my knowledge I have the fastest verified quarter mile of a V6 and that is 15.38 @ 92.5 mph. I'd love Hazer to track his. He can prob pull a high 14.

At least my LY7 was in the same time zone as the others.
Being a huge w-body fan and still an owner of 3 GPs, one turbo'd GP making close to 600whp, I wouldn't say the G8 is a better car top to bottom, especially mechanically. While the GP does have some mechanic issues, as does the G8, the 3800 is by far a better engine reliability wise than the LY7/L76. The 3800 doesn't come with a camshaft self grind mod like the L76 does lol.So the "base" G8 is on parity with the Grand Prix it replaced in the base engine configuration; while being a better car top to bottom.
