Do you have any 1/4 trap speeds with the kit? Thinking about going from a torque storm bloser to this setup, not sure if itll be worth it or not through a m6 and 3.91s

Best thing to do would be to contact Kevin on Facebook. He owns Cartunning Performance and would be able to tell you everything. There is a G8 in Canada that made 1200whp with this same kit if that helps.

Old video but what coolant overflow tank did you use? Any details on how you swapped over from the stock setup to the current one that let's you have the boost pipe pass through?
@J2GXP
@J2GXP Жыл бұрын
It actually came with the kit, so I’m not sure of the brand. The great thing about the G8’s over flow is it’s not pressurized, so really you can use whatever tank you want. Then I just used some coolant hose to change the routing to where it is now. Originally I used a moroso tank, but I prefer the look of this one.

Hows this kit holding up? Thinking about getting rid of my lsa setup and purchasing this kit is it a t4 flange kit? Thank you
@J2GXP
@J2GXP Жыл бұрын
It’s been holding up very well, no issues with any part of the kit. Im actually kind of surprised because I also do track days (circuit course) and lap after lap nothing has gone wrong with the kit. It is a t4 kit, but he has made a few with T6 also for some guys in the U.S for an extra cost. Overall very happy with the quality of the kit.

All my gauges came with their own sensors, I installed my oil temp sensor by drilling and tapping my oil pan, oil pressure sensor is installed off the valley plate with a fitting that allows you to mount the stock sensor and the sensor for the gauge. Basically all my oem sensors are still in place and I installed all the sensors for the gauges separately.

I would definitely recommend it, 4 years with track days and no problems. Have you seen the video of the the Camaro kit? Exactly the same as the G8 went low 10’s at 139 with a 6 speed manual. Stock motor, no cam head work nothing just bolted the kit up. if it was an auto that mph would get you a mid to high 9 on a bone stock motor!
