Evo IX vs Pontiac GTO
I raced my friend in his 2007 Pontiac GTO last night; his modsare an exhaust and intake. My mods are a 3" TBE exhaust, intake, cams, and FP green turbo on 91 octane tuned. We raced from a roll and I was in 3rd gear at about 4500 rpm at the start of the race. We counted to 3 and then went. I immediately started pulling away from him and must've gotten around two car lengths on him about halfway through 4th gear. I was expecting him to put up a better fight as GTO's are supposed to be pretty quick.
In a few months he's supposed to pick up a supercharger kit along with a tune which should give hima substantial amount of power and then we're going to race again. I'm going to use my water/meth map running 28 pounds of boost on that race but I'm not sure if that will be enough.

RE: Evo IX vs Pontiac GTO
depending on the supercharger, and the amount of pounds he decides to go with. Your in pretty good shape, although i suggest maybe a turbo upgrade if you want to put up a fight. especially when your dealing with a GTO off a roll.

RE: Evo IX vs Pontiac GTO
Youll be fine. Guss he is on a turbo upgrade that is good for nearly 500HP on race gas. Xtreme I raced a few supracharged v8s at the track in my 50trim Evo. I was on pump and making in the ballpark of 405WHP. I was faster than all of them. One was a 03 (5.7L version) GTO supercharged and the other was a brand new GT stang supercharger. I was also running exact same times as a brand new GT500 with exhaust (at least if not more bolt ons)
Keep in the mind the 05+ (or is it 06+) GTO that came with the 6.0L was much more of a beast

same difference. I was close haha. The one from the track day I was at was a 5.7 and supercharged and it was still slow , driver most likely
