We are never too busy to stop and talk! You should have joined us. Next time?

i was out there with a buddy of mine with a 03 or 04 gto he is wantin to go back next weekend so i will prob be out there then would like to see if i can get a low low 13 out of it stock before start any mods

If you pulled a 13.27 stock with a 2.5 60ft time....you can go 12s easily.

YOu should be able to pull a 2.0-2.1 on street tires. For every tenth of a second you better your 60ft it usually equates to 2 tenths of a second in the 1/4 mile.

If you can get a 2.1 60ft thats mid to high 12s stock.

Good luck

i hope i am gettin tired of see that goats tail lights he has a lot of mods so i need to get in the mid twelves to run with him hopefully cold air and atune will help

I think a CAI and tune with some sticky tires and your there.

Agreed

my wife was lookin at your gt500's and she wished we would have went that direction rather than the new 5.0 but i am pretty immpressed with the preformance of the 5.0 it runs much better than my old 07 cal spec

The new 5.0 is an amazing car. Honestly performance wise it's a formidable machine.

she was kinda pissed though when i told her they showed me a 07 gt500 with 3200 miles for three grand less but they would have had to ship it in and i have always liked the cal spec my new one if you dont know what your lookin at you might think it is a six banger kinda like the sleeper look

I remember seeing yours and asking myself if it was a V6....no badging and blacked out. Does give you that sleeper look if you dont look at the lower Cal Spec front spoiler.

I was in the same boat as you....Was looking at a 5.0 and trying to decide on an 07-09 for less than the 5.0 or go with the 2010 for just a few K more

went with the 2010 obviously hehe

5.0 is still one bad machine!!

a JLT intake will go a long way towards helping. contact greg about them, he has a carbon fiber JLT intake for $280

i need to get a JLT for my 07 SGT. the larger intakes make a big difference in power. also if some one tries to sell you on an intake that doesnt require a retune, slap them. if it doesnt require a retune its not worth it.

C&L FTW!!
