Thread: pretty sure it was a GXP

Im at the gas station today on a 4 lane highway,as im pulling out i see a GPGTX comin down the road...appeared to b anyways.It had the GTX spoiler and a funky lookin badge.Anyways traffic is kinda congested so were both givin each other grins back and forth...we finally get up ahead in traffic and come to a red light with both of us in front.Were both smilin from ear to ear...light turns green he punches and starts to get a gain on me because my trac control is messed up and doesnt workso i didnt wanna sit there burnin tires,after i get into mid first gear i hit it and immedeiately start pulling on him till we hit about 90 i was about a half car length on him when he let off...threw up peace signs to each other and parted ways.Its always fun racing one of ur own kind.

The End

edit: GTX was what i meant to post not a GXP

Good kill man, i always wanted to go against one, idk the specs on them.

i think all they have is slp bolt ons and diff suspension...dont quote me though

by the way how much of a gain did u get with headers? anything noticeable?

04-08 gxp have the ls4 V8. 303hp 325tq. something around there. i think there low 14's stock.

great run. ive seen one around here, old man driving it tho and never gives me the time of day :/ also see those gtp g6's, older women driving it tho, again wouldent give me the time of day, then there is like 2 older gtps that i cant ever seem to catch :/

I didn't really notice anything much, It has this annoying sound, it sounds like crickets or something, you can start to hear it at 2500 rpm and then it gets louder. Idk what it is, if it's a exhust leak or the header gasket. I know slp headers are known for this to happen but that was with the older headers cause when they coated the headers they coated the cross over pipe too. But i didnt think it was worth 1,000 bucks i should of got a full size ic but i didnt cause i plan on going far down the road with it.

yea after the run i came home and was trying to find out the specs on the GXP this one was a 97 - 03 body style....it coulda been a clone im not sure.

ahh okay. yea dont know much about those.

Good run, better if you won!
I did notice a difference in performance with the headers.
A lot more torque and better muffler sound.
Short sound vid with the xp installed.

There was no GXP for 97-03. Could it have been a GTX maybe?

yea well i dont really have a grand to drop on a exhaust

I am actually running on stock x-haust.
I have 3"dp with 3" pipe all the way to the Y, then its 2.5".
I cost me $180 for the x-haust work done.
I used to have borla, but it took the off (Noisy).
