Had the same mods added a couple of months ago and loved them.  I instantly noticed it the second I had to merge onto the highway leaving them.  Can't wait to head back up with the exhaust mods for a re-tune.

See you have a G8! Did Livernois tune it also?

My son (Daffy Drunk on LS boards) used to have "Darkside" license plate on his Pontiac T/A.  Hope you don't experience his luck... Car burned up in a garage fire.  To my son's credit... he made the most of it... Put a sign on the back that said:  "Buy it while it's HOT!"  All the plastic panels were literally melted off the car.

Shoulda paid the ArmorAll protection fee.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

I pray not, I have way too much money in the G8.  You might have seen it on their boards,

I regret not having Livernois doing the work and tune.  I still might have Dan re-tune it at some point because I think it has more on the table.  Its no slouch at 447/411 at the wheels but I think we went too big on the cam. 

Off to Livernois early tomorrow morning, Dan is going to tweak the tune now that the Stainless Works system is on her.

What cam did you use? Do you have a stall, or other big mods?

I have a Vector 1.5 setup and had my heads ported. Also have ported Intake and TB, plus Circle D 3000 stall , G Force Axles and some BMR things..  Just had Flex Plate issues, so a Circle D Flex Plate is being installed, along with Camaro Deep Pan & Tranny Dip Stick. Haven't had it Dyno'd. Plan on being in 11's by fall.  O8' with stock cam, is a high 12 sec. car.

Are you considering coming to the Natl G8 Conv (GONE) in Sept.  My son Shredmo,  Daffy Drunk and I will all be there. Shredmo has a LR 09' G8, and DD has 2 GTO's.  I post mostly on GRRRR8. Net in regards to G8's.

Kirk at Vector did a one off cam with specs in the 230's.  It has a huge lope to it but I think its too big.  It also has headwork, ported intake, and a Yank which I believe is a 3400.  I haven't been on forums much this year due to work.  Where is the convention being held at?

Darkside, best looking g8 I have ever seen. If Chevy offered that version (HSV) in the US I would probably be driving one now. Our versions looked extremely boring.

Quad Cities, IA  ( Isle of Capri Casino Bettendorf - same place as last 3 years, and last time in IA.)  Friday Afternoon there are several hours at Cordova Dragway specially reserved for G8's & GTO's.  3rd weekend in Sept.   There are threads on both G8 Forum and GRRRR8.Net

I am sure that any EB vehicles would be more than welcome at GONE. (G8 Owners National Event)

Last year I went to the SHO National Convention in St. Cloud, MN with BPD, and at the last minute, my Flex had an electrical problem with fuel pump, so I drove my G8.  There was another G8 GXP there, and I got to ride a couple different people on the road course at Brainerd.  What a Rush!!  One was a 2013 PP SHO!

BPD beat me in the Drag competition, but track was not prepared, so I couldn't get any traction. I did beat a Boss Mustang 4 times. Also didn't have my slicks and skinnies.

Well, apparently they did not ship my box Monday even though I called at 3pm. So, no tuner or intake today; little pissed off because of it. I was explicitly told it could get shipped today as it wasn't picked up yet. Water under the bridge; not to a good start.

So tomorrow f**king sucks; going to be sitting at home with nothing to do now.

Bummer!  Hope you get it by Friday.

It's scheduled to be delivered Friday--just pisses me off because I'm only 8 hours away.

If it would have shipped Monday at 5pm like everything else, It would have been delivered today.

Andy doesn't call people back LMAO.

It's all good; I give him s*** when I roll up with the SHO for the turbo and meth.

Come Friday; it's on like a MOHTAFUCK. I can't wait to drop this tune in and meet my mate at the drag. We're going head to head with his tuned Focus ST.
