Alternative Auto has acquired a new Pontiac G8 Continued...

One week later we returned to Ubly Dragway to test out just what we could accomplish with only our own in house developed G8 Custom tune that will take better advantage of 93 octane unleaded fuels… and primarily as mentioned above address what I feel is a serious performance loss with how the trans shifts and applies TQ reduction at WOT.

When we returned to Ubly a week later we were fortunate enough to have the exact same outside temperature and same conditions over all as the previous weekend. So we felt that our ¼ mile comparison both with and with out our tune would be a fair and conclusive test.

Right off the street after our nearly two hour drive to the track, the G8 ran 13.23 at just over 104mph. After just a short cool down and pushing it a little on our launches… we eventually got a 13.08 and a 13.07 at just under 105mph.

This is with only our tune installed. Shortly we’ll be trying and testing some sort of an air-box and then from there I’m sure we’ll move onto some sort of exhaust upgrades.

Here are some before and after pictures that we have taken to show you the cosmetic upgrades that we have done to the car. We had the windows tinted to give the car a tougher look along with painting the grill and blacking out all the window trims along the outside of the car.
