Man, I miss my 99 GS. Great car. Mine wouldn't have pulled that Vette, tho. Nice job!!!!!!!!!

That must have been a crap load of work to get it in there. RWD? Loads of work to do that.

I agree we need to have him pop the hood. My guess is he substituted a turbo for the supercharger.

Definately turboed. I have a pretty bad ass stereo on my computer. We can hear it spool up and also hear the wastegate. I could be wrong but it sounds like one!

There is a company from Canada that makes a turbo set up for the FWD cars. There was a 04 Grand Prix with that set up in my area for a while and I saw it take down a couple of low 12 seconds car from a roll.

He is in Jax, FL. He post alot on here:

It has a turbo, along with someother upgrades(fuel system, etc..) Car has been 118 traps on lower boost, pump gas tune. Probably a mid 120's trap car on race gas and more boost. Definantly a unique platform and surprises some people.
