Looks great, except for the Cobra badges. I'm not a big fan of putting on badges that aren't accurate. It'd look better with no badges at all.

Other than that, great work. It looks awesome.

Yeah man, as soon as that hellion is in there, I post up the pics. One thing I forgot to include though is that it is an auto. I drive stick just fine, but the girlfriend couldn't. So, had to go with auto, but have heard it's not really a disadvantage. Oh yeah, what do you guys think about going with a stall converter. With the 550 whp, and a stall converter, what do you guys think I willl be running 0-60, and 1/4 mile estimate? Thanks a lot guys.

auto would be just as quick if the auto tranny didn't have so many more moving parts than the stick, otherwise its a 5 speed too, but puts less hp down cuz its auto and has more drivetrain loss. . .

about the stall converter . . . it would help a bunch on take off and things. . . but after you start making a crap load of power, it gets really hard on stock tranny with a big stall. . . without stall, i've heard ppl put a big load on the new auto 5speeds and put plenty of hard miles on them and they still hold up.

times will depend on boost and tires . . .

hope that helps

that's an awesome looking pony man (I do agree about the badges tho).

Delk Performance in Lebanon TN told me they've already installed a Hellion turbo on a GT tho man. In fact that's the rig they're trying to sell me.

But don't let being second drive ya off, it's a sweet car!!
p.s. what level of boost are you planningon running to hit 550rwhp? They quoted me 8-9psi for 440ish rwhp. Are you getting forged internals, swapping the block, anything like that before adding that level of boost?
