    New Ride

    Well, made the mistake of letting my dad drive my car... Lol. Two weeks later I get a text with a picture of a really nice ws6, he ask what I think of it cause he bought it. This car is a BEAST for the mods it has, needs some better tires before we take it to the track and see times. Anyway heres a video of the car, if you enjoy the sound of a well put together v8 you should enjoy. Sorry for the shakiness in the video, youtube thought it looked better like this. Mods are full exhaust(catted Y pipe), Pnp throttle body, custom cam, and blackwing lid with a tune from one of the best LSx tuners in the area. Made 436rwhp and 404wtq on an unforgiving dyno.

    Welcome to the world of muscle. I have similar numbers with mine and it smokes just about everything on the street. Enjoy!

    **** YES! That sounds absolutely incredible. One of the greatest sounds a car can make. Nice pick up

    Thanks guys, when we got it the car was catless and completely obnoxious. Threw some bullet style hi flow cats on, and got the sound you hear out of it. I think everyone needs at least one v8 in their life. I do miss the wrx.. till I turn the key and hear that cam thumpin lol.

    WS6s were MEAN. F-bodies are the best bang-for-the-buck drag cars out there IMO.

    yeah man a tuned V8 just sounds amazing. I had an older gen CTS-V pass by me the other day that sounded almost the same! Imagine that sound out of a Caddy! It was awesome.

    I certainly will add a V8 to my stable at some point...but it will probably be a late 60s Mustang GT...and certainly an early 2000s Ford Lightning.

    Sadly my brain had to go and pick the Hemi Cuda as my favorite muscle car. Fat chance of me ever owning one of them.

    Those are pretty cool cars I just don't understand Pontiacs obsession with giant tailights from that period. Some of their cars were basically 80% tailight with a little bit of sheet metal
