Impressive, but I was expecting "fewer" mods to achieve 10's? I mean, that's at least, what, about $1500-2200 maybe? What do you guys think? Either way, a badass ride. 537rwhp.

Yawn. MartyO's Marauder is faster. Neener neener neener.

I don't know, that seems about right. I mean if you think about it that motor is tuned really well right outta the box, so extracting more power (or better yet, extracting lower E.T.s) should take a little bit of work. But I do agree, it is one sweet car! I really like the color combo!!:burnout:

BTW, any one know what GT500 owners are running by just bolting on drag radials? :confused:

The gt500 was 4000Lbs w/ driver.....

Thats just shy of us....
...and that motor had less than 100miles on it....

Its not even broken in...

I will check with Lidio, but he has worked on several GT500s and I think that with very minor work has them laying down 550-575 at the Rear Wheels!

The GT looked great, but what's with that plain-looking GM pos in the other lane? It wasn't THAT far behind the GT.

Well that one is running drag radials and seems to be mostly bolt ons depending on whether or not you consider a ported blower a bolt on.

I would think that a smaller pully, a tune, maybe some exhaust and they would respond dramatically like the Terminators did. I know Lidio was very impressed at the results on the GT500.

[Raudermaster]

The Terminator's are still very impressive, that was my first choice on the Marauder! lol

the Terminators are extremely impressive, but I think with the same mods, the GT500 will end up the top dog.
