Popular Post PGH STEELERS Posted September 25, 2009 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Been thinking about joining this site for awhile and now here I am. I have an 06 Pontiac GTO and I know I have seen alot of you all at the Test-n-Tunes. Thanks to Anthony for the last couple, the last one being at National Trails a couple of Friday's ago. Congradulation Anthony on your Marriage. Here are my modification to my Gto as follows: Mod's: MOTOR: 1 3/4" Kooks Long Tube Headers with High Flow Catts, SLP Underdrive Pulley, Cam, Vararam CAI, & GMM Ripter Shifter. Cam Spec's: 230 Intake Duration, 232 Exhaust Duration, .595"/.585", 113 LSA with 109 Intake Centerline @ 2400-6400 RPM. SUSPENSION: Serious Street Pedders Package.

Current: 406.2 RWHP 384.2 RWTQ (I need to get onto a Dyno to see my new numbers cause I think I atleast have around 420 now). I look forward to some more Test-n-Tunes and hopefully with you all. Here are some pictures of my GTO. I also have a 1979 Pontiac Firebird Formula needs some work. I know one of these winters I will dig into it. So enjoy and hope to join this site. http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp132/PGHSteelers/John-1-1.jpg http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp132/PGHSteelers/0459368-R1-038-17A.jpg (sorry for the low resolution) http://i405.photobucket.com/albums/pp132/PGHSteelers/P1010005-2.jpg 1 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWW$HEEET Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 is it normal to have over 400hp and run a 12.6? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kirks5oh Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 is it normal to have over 400hp and run a 12.6? absolutely, that is the new norm. my cadillac has over 400hp and probably runs a 16 or 17 at least. name me a new car that has 370-430hp and reliably runs faster than 12.6, and i will name 5 that don't Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kirks5oh Posted September 28, 2009 Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 i guess you are right. it is sad, but true. imagine loading your car up with 3 average adults (233lbs times 3) and that is the extra weight today's cars are working with--600-700lbs.

PGH STEELERS Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 is it normal to have over 400hp and run a 12.6? I would probably chaulk that up to driver error. I've only done this for about 1 year and only have about 20 plus runs. My goal would be 12.3 or .4. I can't be consistant with a manual. Hopefully after some years under my belt I might be able to be consistant? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGH STEELERS Posted September 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2009 Thanks, she does need a little bit of work though. I need to redo the interior and get the motor reworked. The motor on the Bird has 103,000 miles on it. The Bird stills fires right up and drives true and straight, surpricingly. Thanks and hope to meet some more people. P.S. I have noticed alot of people from CR that are in the Westerville area. Would like to meet up with some, some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
