Good on ya for admitting to yourself that you weren't completely happy with the engine configuration. I bet you'll be a lot happier with a more toned down mill.
This is the eternal struggle for many. For a daily driver type vehicle 500 Hp is more than enough in my opinion. For a weekend beast the sky is the limit.

About Us

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
