Youtube comments are insanely retarded. I think the car looks good. What exhaust setup are you running? My only suggestion would be to black the intercooler out so it looks a little more stock from first glance.

Functional FMIC are for ricers too, real men use no intercoolers.
Turbos are for ricers too, real cars use stickers.

well, if they thought your intercooler wasn't functional, then i can see.

but, everything is functional, and is a hella sleeper car.

i know so car folk that think anything on your car from ebay is automaticlly "rice" but, i don't think you said anything about where you got te parts.

but, if i were you, i would put on a better set of rims then stock, and maybe bring it down a little in ride height.

The quad tips are from factory, I run open cutout. The manifolds and crossover were custom made from donkeypunch performance, and downpipe was made from parts from mcmaster.com all welded together.. pretty much same thing exhaust shop can do. Everything had to be custom fabricated because there is no turbo kit for a grand am.

I am about half tempted to attempt 12s here this late spring/summer. I really wanted to sell turbo to a guy on GA forums. put car back to stock and get rid of it, car has a fully built transmission think i paid like 2,500-3,000 area.
Got a lot of stuff to throw in motor if i go for 12s sitting around house. My only problem is, I'm limited on tools to do a full motor build again. Everythings pretty much in my driveway and I only have a short selection on tools. Right now I have my heads off so I'll need to make a decision quick.

My plans after the GA, after doing away with the turbo/wideband setup, Sell the car, Buy a GTO. Use all the cash I got from GA and go right for the TT Rear mount kit STS has to offer for the 6.0.

I really do love my GA and would like to see a timeslip without the one with no first gear and boostleak on 4 psi only hitting peak boost with 1500 rpms to play with. 103mph @ 14.01
