Lol, damn LS stuff. Having thoughts about a G body Malibu and a LS motor lately. Tire would help a lot but i didnt buy this car for that. I'm wanting a tune so bad but I'm not ready to void my warranty.

you're not the only one with LS1 thoughts lately lol

Those MS3's are very strong, tree stump pullers with all that torque!

shut up and buy one of our tunes already :P. It'll only void warranty's if your dealer is a total pos. Unless you have catastrophic engine failure they shouldn't even look at your flash counter.

I drove my friends ST over the weekend. They definitely wheelhop like crazy. It was in the 50's though, so it might have been temperature.

Its so hard for me to not get a tune for the thing lol. I've got the upgraded RMM but it still hops, just not as bad.

The only way I found to cure hope on the SRT-4 was slicks. Or leave the line like an old woman.

Those MazdaSpeed's are quick.. you just need the right tires..
Mine went 11.6 at 118 with a mild combo if those mods. Damn Scat-packs are nice though. LS1 needs a good bit of lunch money thrown at it to do what a stock Scat can do. Times are a-changin lol.

Explosive, nice passes man. FWD is a nightmare. Been there, so I feel your pain. Throw a tune on her and get an extra set of track only tires, I bet it runs mid-low 13s.

Same here, in fact been investigating G-body+4.8 liter and custom turbo. Evidently, the 4.8 is nothing more than a short stroke LS motor capable of holding a ton of boost/power. Turn key 4.8 can be had for like $7-800 all day long on ebay, etc. Strip the car down, insert turbo LS, out-run Greddy's Cobra
