Couple of friends went out to see how a cam, some really mild exhaust side porting and a new tune to go along, would do for this G8 GT.

G8 GT - Full Exhaust, Intake, Cam, Mild Portwork (Exhaust Side Only)
C6 Corvette - Stock
Both cars are automatics.

Both runs were 25 Rolls, G8 before the cam and head work lost by about 4 cars.

that c6 auto?

 

Good runs. Wanted a G8 but needed a 6 speed but couldn't find a GXP nearby at a good price.

 

Yes, sorry left that out, both cars are auto.

 

G8 didn't jump at all the first video


That's a pretty quick G8. Good runs.

 

My mom drives an auto too.

 

Maybe a tad bit, haha. That's just how he is when it comes to racing, -_-

That's cool.

 

nice runs. G8 moving pretty good

 

Makes me rethink re-running my bos now, lol. He has a G8 GT w LS6 cam and valve springs, custom tune, intake and axle back exhaust auto as well, lol

robk

 

i want a g8 or a cts v for my 4dr... nice to know they can scoot

 

G8 moves out for a 4000 lb sedan!

 

That g8 goes damn good & sounds good too

 

G8s have a lot of potential, with bolt ons, a cam, and camaro rear end they can run bottom 11's.

 

Wow the gains they get with those mods are impressive. I put 4-5 cars on a friends G8 GT that had just an intake from 40-120 when I was stock blower (2.7) on E85

 

tell that vette to get rid of the 2.73s for 4.10s and things will be back to where they were...

 

Yeah, when I had 2.8 + mods in my signature I used to put a car or so on him until 130+ then he would pull back on me, when he was stock that is.

 

nice

 

those G8s are nasty. a friend of mine has one runnin mid 11s

 

Saw the G8 at SoCo Hooters this past Saturday night, my friend wanted to run him but was too ***** to come ask. lol Maybe we'll see it again down there or in the Valley, though that area is **** for runs.

 

He goes out every Friday and Saturday. He doesn't really make it out to the valley to much, SoCo is your best bet.

Also there's a few that go up there, but he's the only one with black wheels if I'm not mistaken.

 

good luck finding Cts-v's. they r so hard to find around here noone wants to see them. thats what i want or a trailblazer SS.

 

I'll be running a stock-ish g8 gt here pretty soon, he has exhaust work and that's it. He's been doing a lot of smack talking and I figure from a 40 in my 2.8 car I would have a slight edge. Those were some pretty good vids, g8s def have a lot of potential.

 

when i was looking for my gto there were a bunch of those in tx.

 

What other mods do you have?

 

all the normal bolt-ons, lth + full exhaust, intake, cooling stuff, ported sc, tune
