    Kinda like getting a smaller s/c pulley. You can gain a certain amount of HP w/ the needed supporting mods. If only our cars got the claimed horsepower from each bolt-on we added. Think mine'd be around 320. Heh don't we all wish = D

    Apparently the G-Series part is referring to the G5, G6, & G8. Not the Grand Prix? This article explains:

    Mine put down 252 whp stock.....installed K&N and got it up to 263 whp (259 whp in high heat and humidity).
    This one has a V8.
    Why not just make a V6 faster?

    East Coast Air and High Altitude in Colorado might have something to do with that

    Yep....air's pretty thin up there in Colorado. Air's even thinner where SJR GXP is......thin enough to cause hallucinations.

    Someone once told me that if I put a "Superhcharged" sticker on my 04 GTP it would give me 50hp. So does that mean I now have 330hp? lol

    Hey blade runner, i know your looking at Superchips, and you wasn't on this site when i posted my dyno-tuned numbers. Here is the link for the page
    http://www.grandprixforums.net/f20/dyno-s-11150.html
    I averaged a 16-20HP peak gain. with a 30hp midrange gain. I had also only been running regular unleaded, up until the day of the tune which i filled up with 91 octane.

    wow..........I have NEVER seen anyone that flamed and that owned at the same time while still being completely hilarious..........even a crack addict would figure BS at that claim..........what could you possibly be thinking. Did you actually figure people would believe that Shiznit? I suppose if I go from running 91 octane to 93 I can gain an easy 45 more HP? WOW>............
