without going into details, i can safely say that a 1998 CSVT will beat a 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP.
pretty good, considering - for one - those cars aren't made in sticks, so they don't have to worry about shifting, plus all the torque they've got from a 3.8L V6.

I want to. Just a matter of the leave dates. I'm kind of doubting it now because my class will pick up again in January and it wont be over till June. Unless there is a break in the class.
Oh well, in the mean time I need to make the local dyno and the drags so I can see what this thing can do. Before I burn up these newer tires.

I'm sure your wallet being much lighter helped out......
 JK...even with the extra $$ I spent on my car I'm still not near what a STi would cost in CAD

Where are you that you have a foot of snow? North of Toronto I guess?

I'm not sure that a stock CSVT will beat the GTP. In fact, I'm pretty convinced that it wont without serious weight reduction or against a stock, bad running GTP. The GT yeah, but not the GTP.
