the GTP's came with 240bhp and 280lb-ft tq stock, and the later models 3800 GTP's came with 260bhp and 280lb-ft tq stock.

i have seen the earlier GTP's with the 240bhp engine put down around 190whp and 220wtq (STOCK) on many occasions. i have never seen what the later 260bhp GTP's put down.

i was there, saw the numbers myself. i honestly had forgotten what the gtp's were rated at, so i didn't have the shock and awe that the other 3 people there had, but i do remember hp being 222 after i think the 2nd pull.

i don't remember the other gtp, i may have taken off at that point. i know fred couldn't believe how low the numbers were though, and he was saying it had to be an extremely safe tune.

I made more than 220whp on the stock pulley, with no tune or headers. I have no idea why this kid thinks he could beat me...

Too bad he ran away to NY, I even gave his boy my # to set it up.

Bottom line is, his car isn't even running right, put down nothing for power and he' STILL yapping about how he'd beat me.

My cars actually run right, you better bring your A game to race me. MetalicSC If you wanna run me in the Cobalt for reference we can run it and you'll see what I mean.
