Awesome. I need to do the new car mod soon.

LOL The new car mod is nice. I cant believe this thing is a truck it drives like a cadilac compared to my 95 K2500.

I havent been on the forums in a while because I have been very busy running my business. Since I have posted I have sold my Torrent GXP (Miss the power) and purchased a GMC Sierra because I cannot tow landscaping equipment with the Torrent lol. I also purchased another TGP. The TGP I owned previous was rotted to hell so I decided to make it my parts car for my new TGP. My new TGP is from Texas and under the car is beautiful. No rust anywhere! Here are some pics.

To launch it wouldnt I just brake rev it? I am going to try and avoid the water pit and not burnout. My GTP still has that rubber shit on it lol.

I am going to take the Torrent GXP to the track Wed night and see what she runs. Any tips? I know I have to dissable Traction control and stabilatrak. Anything else? Is there a certain tire pressure I should run at track?

Wait...did you plug back in all the intake sensors? Make sure, because leaving the IAT sensor disconnected makes the PCM jack up the transmission pressure.

Yes I never unplugged anything. I installed intake tubing pre maf so everything above is still stock. The past 3 weeks the tranny has been acting fine so im not sure now.

Just started acting up a couple days ago. The tranny upshifts fine. Only when it downshifts into 4th gear it slams into it. Every other gear downshifting is fine. I know its 4th because I put it into manual mode and watched it downshift and when it hits 4th it slams down. Even in manual mode when I shift to 4th it slams. I am bringing it to dealership before my warrant runs out. Time to put stock intake back in lol

About 30 mins to swap. I don't really wanna drive in the winter but we'll see. My chevy truck gets 8mpg.

The airaid prefilter protector says it's water repellent and is still free flowing. Stock intake setup will be going back in for the winter months.

Just got done installing my CAI setup. I purchased a AIRAID U build it kit. Love the sound of it. Opens motor up real good. Also purchased a rain guard for the filter.

Any one on here use any of there products? I read some reviews on it and it seems like good stuff.

I ordered my rims of wheelsnext and they suck. They would not help me with a problem I had with my rims 1 year after purchase. Also dont buy HP Design rims. The chrome bullets around my rims started peeling off and neither company cares to help.

Did not get a relay switch with the kit. Two of these and I should be good to go.

Reading and clearing engine codes is the main reason I like the guage. It has the CANDI attachment with the guage. Also if I plan on fabbing up a turbo kit it has some parameters I would like to keep an eye on. And of course calculated horsepower LOL.

The ballast are Velcro striped down and do not move. It isn't just one bulb. All 4 do it from time to time.

Thinking about this gauge setup for the GXP. Dual aeroforce guages w/ universal pod

I have koni adjustables with eibach springs. I had to put trans and motor mount spacers in tho for the vibration.

I have 6000k HID Headlights and Fogs on my Torrent GXP and sometimes when im stopped at a traffice light I can see my headlights flicker off someones rear bumper. Any one else have this problem?

Welcome and White is the best color on the G8'S IMO.

Welcome. I have owned my Torrent GXP for 2 months now and LOVE IT. I drive it more than my 2000 GTP. Putting in a cold air setup down to the lower grille. Welcome to the club!

I used 6000k for temp. I don't see anything out there for exhaust so I would have to customize one. I actually really like the sound of the stock exhaust it has a nice sporty sound to it. The rails came off easy I just unbolted them from the top and the plastic piece they slide on stays on. I don't know what rails sell for? Make me offer I just gotta find huge box for them to ship.

Purchased last month. Fully Loaded w/ sun/sound package.

At dealership

HID'S

Roof racks removed

Plan on painting calipers, tinting tails, cold air intake, and tune. I will post better pics when I get a chance to clay/wax her.

Ya I thought b/s but wanted to see what people on the forum thought. I would give it a shot for 50 bucks but not 150.

Any body have one of these installed on there vehicles? It looks like b/s but figured I would ask. I was gonna install on my 08 Torrent GXP when I build my Cold air intake. I have read mixed reviews on it.
