    What do you mean the l76 doesnt like boost? The bottom end STOCK handles 700 easily an its VERY popular to throw an LSA blower on it and make those numbers to the wheel,the L76 also doesnt have vvt just dod. DOD is part of the valvetrain so doing a cam an lifters deletes the DOD but you will have to tune it out.

      @derekwhite1738 9 месяцев назад

      Yup great engine idk why say not meant for boost ok I guess there never wanted it be boosted from gm but it’s been done time after time he’ll the ls2 will hold it the weak point is after you modify the motor is the trans they don’t hold very well when motor is modified unless is built great cars though super reliable not bad on gas either but the gxp has ls3 so I’m sure that won’t be as great on gas as g8 gt sound amazing after you put headers n exhaust n cam whole new car after that night n day difference but this my daily so not trying go too crazzy with it right now lol

    The way I see it you have two good routes for modding a G8.
    The Boosted route: DoD delete, PDS cam, LSA blower, headers, catback, intake, 3.27 rear diff swap
    Or
    An NA setup: DoD delete, stage 2 or 3 can, headers, catback, intake, ported heads, ported intake manifold, ported throttle body, 3.45 rear diff swap

    I guess I'll be that guy.... who in the hell is chasing these kind of HP numbers on these hypothetical builds? As a owner of a 09 pontiac G8 GT and several other LS powered vehicles, your opinion or advice on cars are very over the top. It's like your reading right out of high end shop website and parts catalog. Yes, There is SOME general truth to what you're talking about, BUT not all of it. You'll go broke trying to do these black car guru builds. I've worked on many G8's over the years ranging from 450whp to 800whp daily driven set ups that are safe and very reliable and didn't had to drop that super grocery list of parts to obtain those numbers. Shit, a bad tune or tuner can mess any of these builds up. Personally, I couldn't take your advisory like that as if it's gospel. Too many variables in play with a person car's intended use. I just generally watch your the vids for what it is..., entertainment, nothing more. Stick to the roasting bro, which I personally do like. (Respectfully)

I watch his video from a entertainment eye, not someone that needs help on a build, there are way more knowledgeable youtubers out there with vast experience and R&D to back up what they're talking about.. Do you have deep pockets for the parts and builds that this man talks about? And i haven't seen a video yet of build of his that are doing numbers(HP that is) I can talk a little bit of shit because I've done a build of two and a swap or two. I can back up what I talk about, so before you come at me being a "Stan" and Dikk rider, ask yourself: what you done and can you do?
