[QUOTE="Travis Munday, post: 564467, member: 52914"] I'd like to drive a super/turbocharged GTO, but I would not like to buy the tires. From what I hear, the GTO suffers really bad from heat soak, so power is great while it's cold...but not so after a few runs. The magazine that had this GTO didn't have it intercooled, and I think it was a centrifugal 'charger and not a roots...regardless, they used nitrous to try to bring the intake temps back down. It worked, but still had heat soak. I'd like to see a twin turbo version with a huge honkin' intercooler and radiator, with the turbos mounted mounted low and forward, just aft of the fog lights to keep thm cool, and can't forget the large capacity oil cooler and extra capacity remote mounted oil filter...the more oil, the better. Gotta have some huge 13" wide rear wheels and bubble rear fenders....yeah, that'd be nice. [/QUOTE]
