  • We finally got the G8 on the dyno and back home.
    Can't wait for a new season next year of tire slanging fun!

    A lot of people like to call all kinds different cars a sleeper but this by far is the biggest sleeper I've ever seen. Nobody would even look twice at some mostly stock looking older pontiac until they hear that turbo and see it fly away.

    Bro that’s a BEAUTIFUL LOOKING WHP WTQ curves. That’s dam near perfect and at 1200whp while making almost equivalent torque is crazy

      @THEHANCHO230 It's been one hell of a ride for sure. Thankfully I took lots of pictures/videos and the pictures will be going up on the wall! I appreciate you!

    pretty insane still being on the stock transmission......🤣🤣🤣 thats bad ass.....i dont think my motor would handle that kind of power. I also dont have a triple pump setup. Motor is built. Im still on stock trans as well.......i want to go turbo.........but i dont have any great direction on how to go about it.

    • @TevonMaples

      Lol right, its honestly holding super well, 0 issues. Theres quite a bit of kits out there now instead of one or two.
      Jackfab, Koza, Turbojoe, and i think one more.

      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому +3

      Thanks bro! Much appreciated. Its a 30x40x12. I built it mostly by myself. I have most of the build (semi) up on youtube also!

    sexy 🎱, where did you get that aluminum piping for the coolant, also your water pump coolant hole is on the opposite side is that like a ls2 waterpump or something

    • @TevonMaples
      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому +3

      LSA waterpump or LS3 pump, its from when I did the LSA setup, just never switched back to save some money. The coolant is a custom setup!

      Did you make your own turbo kit ? Who makes it ?

    • @TevonMaples
      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому +1

      @wildta4302 nobody makes this kit.
      It's 100% custom done.
      Koza and Turbo Joe make kits if you are looking for something similar.

    can a stock engine 09 GT handle a LSA 2650?

    • @TevonMaples
      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому

      @infinitwatspeed69 i would say at the lowest boost setting possibly, I know of two 2650 cars that were fully built with snapped cranks.
      Super hard on those cranks for sure.

    Dude 1200+ whp on a stock 6l80e? I thought they starting breaking stuff at 5-600

    • @TevonMaples
      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому

      @natestunts stock 6l80e with a cooler and billet converter.
      I ran this trans at 724hp no cooler aggressively in arizona heat. 0 issues. I would put money on me replacing the trans after some aggressive launches. But so far so good at 1200.
      I know several people running 6Ls at or above 1k hp.
      5th gear is the problem child that ends up taking the whole trans. 5th gear is locked out on this tune at WOT preventing that.

      @ That’s awesome bro thanks for the info! I just put my g8 up to build over the winter , guess I’ll scratch built trans off the list and see how it does like that 🤙

    • @TevonMaples
      @TevonMaples  2 місяці тому

      @natestunts get someone that knows these trans inside and out in terms of tuning and it'll be good
