    Default Pics of my new redline...

    My new toy.......




    Sorry for the 2 blurry pics, they were taken by my friend that didnt know how to work the camera

    Got some performance goodies coming for it. You can barely see the new RPi exhaust in the last pic. After I get a little more power out of it, Im gonna put a better suspension on it and some black or gunmetal rims with a polished lip.

    Its a Sky Redline, but I have replaced the badging with Opel GT badges since thats what its sold as in Europe. Most people don't know what it is, the GT badges make it even worse lol

    Never thought I'd own a vert, but its a blast to drive. The torque is the best part.

    Thanks!

    I adjusted the wastegate to get some more out of it and it hit 22 psi (much faster spool too), but the ecm adjusted for it so now I see 20 every now and then. The ecm is turning out to be a pain on the kappas (sky, solstice, GT, G2X). There is a tune I plan on buying soon when they finish testing it. It bumps it to 22-23psi. Cant wait to check it out.

    I've heard a lot of good things about these cars. Best looking verts out there imo, and that's coming from a guy who usually hates verts. Nice ride.

    Haha everything on that car is awesome....... oh except lets ignore the fact that it's supposed to have a trunk though lol.

    Looks good, I already like your taste with the Opel badging and I'd like to see what other clean mods you're going to do to it.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle

    You should have gotten the Daewoo badges and really threw them for a loop.

    Yes, you tards, this is car sold as a Daewoo in S.Korea.

    Car looks good man. I definitely enjoyed the Redline when I test drove one. Have fun with her!

    Yeah the G2X, they dont even sale a non turbo version of the G2X or the GT. I just couldn't bring myself to put Deawoo badges on it.

    I had so many people compliment it and ask me if it was a BMW, Porche, and even a ferrari (idiot lol)! I got so tired of saying, actually its a saturn.

    Most are like, I didnt think saturn made cars like this! I got tired of going into the whole "it was actually designed by Vuaxhall (sp?)" thing.

    Yeah, thats one of the things that suck about it. I looked at all the roadsters and fell in love with the styling and torque of this one, but it falls short with how the top folds compared to the others.

    Thanks for all the compliments and reps, hittin ya all back

    SO I've seen with your setup

    Just going the bolt-on route for now, but may follow in your footsteps or even an LS2 down the road.

    Thanks. I have had it on an 1/8th mile dragstrip (macon national). Will be trying it on a road course next weekend, and hopefully on a 1/4 mile strip soon. I've heard great things about these cars on the road course, but the stock tires suck balls so I don't expect much until I get some more rims with better tires.

    Awesome, another Redline. I love my 05 ION Redline. It isn't turbocharged but I like the supercharger anyways.
