      That 4cyl ecotech almost looks like a better choose of engine in a GT then the 3500

      I know the 06 GT 4dr 3500 I test drove (given it did have 7miles on it) was slow as balls and couldnt get out of its own way on a high way merge. It look amost like 0-60 in 8ish sec range!

        I had the first 2.2 ecotec in my 03 Cavalier sport and I have to say they are strong engines. I was into boost a lot with the ecotec's and there were people running over 10pounds easily with proper tuning and thats it. Freakin engines are bulletproof. That was before they even had the VVT for them.

          Yea, but remember I shaved about 100 lbs off the beast so that helps. Robs fat ass didn't lol. Yea, its around 8 second range to 60. *Sigh* the turbo will help that very much. I need to get an intake and a better resonator than the stock one. My engine sounds so pissed at me above 5k rpm.

          But thanks for the positive comments!

            ^ Yea, that is true about the 5K rev. When I read alot of the original revews of the Solstice 2.4L, I heard alot of "compalints" to generate the full 174 HP (or what the peak HP) at the higher RPMs like 5k up the motor gets real "shaky" for some reason. The 2.4L def doesnt like getting reved

            After thinking about it for awhile, I think if you turbo that motor you are going to have one very mean 6er thats equal or beter then the GTP!

            I think persoanlly the next GTP/GXP should be a AWD ecotech motor worked on like the solstice GXP slaming out around 300 HP and torque. Sort of like the RWD Buick Grand Nationals use to be with the 3.8L (before it was desinated the 3800) turbo charged which in 87 put out like 285 HP and 300 LBS torque, that would be MEAN!

              235 hp 345 Ft lbs :smoke: the 87 GNX is is my dream car. Dude an AWD Turbo 2.4L Ecotec would be SIC! And it would most likely shoot down all of those WRX's buzzin around Schaumburg. :-D

              It is strange, a DOHC VVT engine that doesn't like to be revved. Maybe due to the balance shafts on the new Ecotec. They say their better for reducing engine shake, but we all know that robs horsepower. These engines pull like a turbo would, it kinda swells at 3k and pulls hard 3k-5k. It has NO torque though, lol I would need a fast spooling turbo, somethin real small but boosts fast and hard.

                    Thanks! It sounds even LESS like a ricer in person :P . Im going to do another one sometime this week, at night so you can see it better and with just me in the car.

                    I gotta be honest I can tell that half you guys here didn't think it would hit 60 that fast, am I right? I didn't think it was gonna be this zippy either, and man am I glad I didn't shell out an extra 3-4 grand for the V6. Though I do wish I had leather and keyless entry

                      If you could make a 4cly sound like a mussle car........ i'll be a 4cly turbo charge and turbo person ALL the way

                      Your right, I have a hard time justifying getting the 3500, rather have the 2.4L then the 3500. Just GM sockes you with little to no options with the 4cly. And I have no clue why either. Surprisingly not everyone is about power and speed Why cant someone get a leather interor, keyless enty, remote start, auto climate control in a gas effecent car? THATS whats wrong with American car companies......

                        Aint that the truth. You can get a fully LOADED Honda Accord, with a 4 cylinder. Not a g6 . I honestly dont know why they didnt just cram the 2.2L Ecotec under the hood of these beasts, they did it with the Malibus! (not that Im complaining)

                          I have a 2.4 L ecotec and I paid like 500 extra bucks and I got a keyless entry, remote start, security system and that cool keyfab with the screen all through the manufactuer. They had it done at a local place but I guess its all covered under the warranty.. But for 500 bucks I suppouse you could go get a viper with all that, thats got the same coverage. I would have enjoyed leather tho!
