sothis fell through, huh? Has the guy who was going to do this not said anything, or has he said its a no go?
i mean, i recall reading about this on the GTO board, and he was saying it is a definite thing, almost done, for sure, etc etc.
I'm not sure about the GTO's, but I do know he is coming out with the G8 kit with a 2.6 in 90 days or less. I just spoke with him about a G8 GT kit earlier this week.
incon,
Nice pics. That is the G8, correct? Man, that car seems like it is going to have a shit load of after market support. Hell, it already does. With just headers, cam, and a tune those cars push an easy 450rwhp. Now it seems like they have a vast choice of FI options... maggie (TVS blowers), Kenne Bell, procharger, and turbo kits. I am jealous. If i were in the market for a 4 door sedan, i would scoop that with a quickness.

Yeah it's a G8 and it does have plenty of aftermarket support which is always a great thing. Yeah it's a really great car especially the GXP. They also have lots of interior room. Heres a couple of exterior shots.
My new badges that Jaison Tortorea and I came up with. They are the exact size and font of the stock emblems and will be installed once the KB supercharger is finally installed and completed. The black G8 emblem will replace the stock GT emblem and the black SUPERCHARGED 6.0 emblem will replace the stock PONTIAC G8 emblem.
Wolf, i care and so should you. Not trying to argue with you at all. Merely pointing out my reasoning for giving an F about the G8 kits. Reason being is that hopefully he is done with the G8 kits and will finish the GTO kits. In addition, i want to hear good news about the G8 kit's performance and reliability. That would give us a preview of what the GTO kit is all about.

GTO kit should have been finished before the G8 kit since they've had many more years to work on it. This is just one more pipe dream the GTO was promised and has not been delivered upon.
nice. well done Incon. Best of luck with the car.
off topic, are you in nevada?
Thanks Johny, Yes I'm in Las Vegas, NV

If you want you can have the moderator close this thread or move it there if it's such a big deal.

The GTO kit is complete he just hasn't had a car to test everything on, Jeff posted photos of the complete GTO kit on LS1gto board. The GTO he had fell through and he'll be getting another one in the next couple of weeks. So when it does come out are you actually gonna purchase one?
I have seriously been considering forced induction and damn near pulled the trigger on a procharger. I'll believe it when I see it this kit coming out, until then I remain 100% skeptical. Just like the KYturbo thread, and the Voodoo thread and now this one.

i feel ya man. There have been lots of big promises and zero deliveries, so i completely understand your skepticism. You may be right, we will see. I just hope not.

This is still going on? There will be NO kit for the GTO. Based on this guys behavior with the community and ETMC in particular, I wouldn't trust anything he says. Even if he makes a kit for the G8 I wouldn't touch it with a 10' pole based on the way he treated people.
If you decided you didn't want to make a kit, or it wasn't worth the trouble or whatever, man up and say "we changed our minds sorry" but vanishing off the face of the earth, making promises and then disappearing, failing to return phone calls to other vendors who are going to help out, is just lame.
