    Your buddy is stupid. Your car makes more power to the wheels than he does at the crank.

    Sounds just like an idiot I used to work with. When I had my TSI he talked all kinds of sh!t about his Z34 Cavalier. He said something about wanting to race. I told him he didn't stand a chance because I was trapping over 115. He said, "I can hit 115", my respose, "Yeah, but it takes you a few minutes to get up there, while I hit it in about 12 seconds." He also didn't beleive I was making 255 at the wheels. He said there was no way a 4 cylinder can make that much power. I just laughed at him, because apparently he's never heard of a turbo before.

    i have yet to be in a gp that i feel has done 160....

    My '98 SS S-10 had a hard time being worthy of the badging, so I threw this thing on it.
    I may say rude things but learn to take a joke. The internet is funny when you can laugh.

    Oh lol because I was actually looking at it and liked what was done to the car from those pictures, I just recently bought a 2003 Grand prix GT, same colour as yours. I would suggest if you dont already have a really dark tint i have it on mine and with our colour the car looks really sharp, I dont however kno the tint % just because mine came with it but it will certainly look good. Im also thinking about getting a set of headlights like yours where did you get them from?
