Bought a new car
#1
I have been in the market for something to replace my company car- a 2004 GTP. Well the company let us buy out the car for cheap- the company went through a huge acquisition so the car plan changed.
I decided to buy out the GTO- I also picked of a weekend/summer toy.
I bought a 04 GTP. It is Torrid Red with 10,000 miles. So far I love it!
I know most guys here like performance cars, so thought I would share.

They are fun cars but have a really bad turning radius. Other than that I haven't reallyfound another weak point. My buddy has one with an intake, chip, pulleys, and some other work and has already hit 300+ WHP. The thing is a beast...

So far I have done a CAI and cat-back exhaust- headers and a tune are on the way.

I just noticed in my first post that I said I bought a 04 GTP. I bought out my company car- a 04 GTP and picked up a GTO.
I think I did the attachment right.
Everything else is stock- lights, audio etc. I am just looking at performance right now. I am going to do a spoiler delete kit and HIDs down the road.
Once the headers and tune are done- I should be at about 400-415 HP at the crank.
Right now I am driving it almost everyday when the weather is nice. I want to maintain the everyday drivebility.

Very cool.. LS1's are great engines. Where are you getting the headers and tune done?

I ordered up HP tuners software for my car. I'd rather spend $500 for my own tuning software. I love tinkering though... hehe.
