Shifter23 Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 I know just screwing with you. I got to or i wouldn't be me lol. I hope you get it though or i should say that it will be as nice as you picture it. I went to look at a old Caddy in Milwaukee a month or two ago and it went from described as cherry to a pile of shit. But the price was the same as your TGP lol!

krenzy Posted May 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 LOL. No we need to wait for either Kenny, the main operator of the site (who runs his own professional shop) or Luke, who's Kenny's friend, to go into the website and fix the database. Should be easy...

killinprixs Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 hahaha i know what you mean, people respond more to a "I Waxed my TGP today" rather than "Just finished my 350hp build" haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfewtrail Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I don't see anyone besides Jeff(kuntzie) posting any "350hp+" builds with proof. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killinprixs Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 It was an example dude, and i know you keep tabs on EVERYONES TGP so you should know an LG5 with gen 3 topend, TUNED and boosted makes 325-350. Its been done before, the fact and build sheets are there, yea if my TGPS had 40k on them and had mint paint, yea id probably leave it at 205 hp to keep her all original but it aint gonna be too much fun and your gonna get smoked by anything and everything...have fun stocker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrett Powered Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 I dont know man. even stock they are not that bad. they got a lot of torque. if you can restore one back to good running stock, you will do ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbo v-sick Posted May 10, 2008 Report Share Posted May 10, 2008 My Black TGP is bone stock... Well gutted cat, cold air kit, 28lb ls-1 injectors and one wicked tune. I put down 268fwhp with over 300lbs of torque. All with that tiny stock t25. So it can be done, but it's all in the tune and injectors.

I would like to see what your car puts down after you get the tune worked out. Check your PM's by the way, I have a question for you... My Black TGP is bone stock... Well gutted cat, cold air kit, 28lb ls-1 injectors and one wicked tune. I put down 268fwhp with over 300lbs of torque. All with that tiny stock t25. So it can be done, but it's all in the tune and injectors. Nice #'s with the auto. Was that with the stock boost control solenoid? If so, did you ever try it with a MBC to see how much torque would spike when it spooled? That's pretty much enough to run 12's if you could launch the shit out of the car without breaking things. There's a guy on this board that ran high 12's @ 104-105 mph with his 267whp car a few years back(L67). Do you run that tune all the time or is that more of a "race tune" for you? I'm curious if you ever see any knock during our hot/humid summers in the South(?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm curious if you ever see any knock during our hot/humid summers in the South(?). Ok I forgot that I modded the trans and installed a higher stall conveter. Ooops Anyways I used a mbc for the dyno but the stock stuff on the street. The tune is pretty wicked but is also VERY streetable. No knock counts that I"m aware of but I did have some issues with it during the early stages of tuning... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
