Where is the 400?

400 at the crank, that dyno shows RWHP.

Sales records will fall, but that won't take much will it....... http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...icon_smile.gif

awww DJ's way of saying he like it... how cute. :P

12's should be acheivable.

Nah, me liking it is not going to happen, no matter what kind of horsepower it puts out. Or how many scoops they add to it.

I think the grills look much better but I don't like the bumper much. 350 rw is what most cobras dyno so it should be a good run.

400 hp with a 15% loss for the standard tranny, what's the big deal? Is'nt that about right? http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...n_confused.gif

The big deal is when was the last time you saw a GTO with 400hp from the factory? Oh that's right never, until now. http://forums.performanceyears.com/g...on_biggrin.gif

From the factory? The Holden factory. Where they make Holdens. With Chevy motors.

Funny, I thought GM Powertrain made the motors in Canada.

David, is fun being stupid? Just leave this forum so the people who like the cars don't have to listen to your stupidity please. Then again, you are from Alabama. Explains a great deal.

Amen - everytime someone starts a topic on the '04, now the '05 GTO, some infant has to come along and bash the new GTO or start talking about supercharged Rustangs! Grow up guys!

It's just so much fun http://forums.performanceyears.com/g.../icon_razz.gif

Hahahaha. STFU XD

Seriously, I can't understand why some people get so worked up over the corporate engines. So, it's a 'chevy' because it's based on the smallblock? Well, shoot, you're absolutely right!

Now stop whining. ^___^

Motor trend has the new vette running 12.80s at 112 weighing 3100#. With the extra weight of the gto,it'll still be looking at my taillights. At 12.80s so will the vette. I can't wait for the new lightning, this is going to be fun.

Got me. Geez, I'm feeling bad now.
"David, is fun being stupid?"
Saved a few letters on that zinger I guess.
"Funny, I thought GM Powertrain made the motors in Canada."
Maybe they do. I said nothing about that.
Now my favorite.....
"Then again, you are from Alabama. Explains a great deal."
Coming from an "Internet Super Slueth" that statement means a lot. Another "poser" busted.....

Dave, when you can intelligently debate the GTO, let me know. Try learning something about the car and GM of Today instead of living in the past.

2004 is here, even in Alabama.

Yessir. I'm humbled, embarrassed, and in awe of your knowledge and debating talent. Your spelling and the way you articulate your well thought out points speaks well of you also. The Alabama portion of your reply has me considering a move close to you, so that part of your self esteem may somehow rub of on me and my family, lifting us to new highs.

Thanks for proving the point for me. Nothing to say.

Actualy, GM High Tech Performance just did an 11.97 in the new LS6 vette - bone stock, didn't even remove the air filter. Even with the added weight, that's still a good indication that the GTO is going to run 12's off the showroom floor. A few mods, a cam swap, and 11's here I come...

Like I said.....

as a 2004 "stock" appearance hater, i love the 2005 with the scoops, revised spoiler, and dual exhaust, i am seriously concidering putting my 2007 carrera S fund on hold, and just getting this now.

You have issues, seriously. Ask yourself why
you respond as you do..

OK
Self, why do you respond as you do?
After much thoughtful speculation, self replies, a quality conversation with Mr_GTO (internet super sleuth)has that affect on me.
