Default Vid of my L67 GTP

I took it out for a few GTECH runs today, and I was consistenly geting 8.4-9.1 times. I was getting traction problems though, as it is winter time here in Ottawa. Does a good hard launch REALLY knock off 2.5-3 * off your 0-60? Or is the car maybe not as fast as it is supposed to be? Here is a random vid of random runs with the GTP.

Stock 0-60 for a GTP is 7 seconds flat. What were you getting for 60' times??? If you were getting like 2.5 60' times then I can see it running an 8.4, but if you were getting like 2.0 60' times, then that is odd. Also, having the calibration even the slightest bit off can greatly vary the times the GTECH says. I went out and tested my GP STE with my dads G-Tech Pro Competition and the first 1/4 miles run I made was like a 12.1 @ 130mph because obviously the calibration was way off. Then I calibrated it correctly, and it pulled the time I expected it to.

I just need to mention that I can't hear the supercharger at all! Somebody needs a smaller pulley and an air intake, that thing sounds way too stock!

Thats what I told him. I was with him today and were getting crappy 0-60 times because of weather. It doesnt seem to pull consistently. The intake makes 2 90* bends from the TB then to the airbox, so he just bought a k&n filter which is on its way. I told him 3.5" was also a good idea, and a CATBACK EXHAUST!!!!!

Arent */C cars supposed to have a whine, right from the factory?

Really nice car though, looks good when its clean.
