Recent G8 GT tests:
Motor Trend
13.8 @ 102.8
Car & Driver
13.8 @ 104
In the Motor Trend test the G8 was tested against a Charger R/T. The G8 was 0.3 quicker ET and 0.8 quicker mph in the 1/4 to give you a good comparison. So to pick up 7 tenths and most notably, 2mph for the car in that video would be pretty impressive (albeit not impossible) without some kind of help. If you read the posts you will see that one of the guys, Trishield, states the car has a tune, which seems more likely. That being said, it's still impressive. If only a tune will yield that kind of result, once some other mods hit it, it should really come alive. The gen II 5.7 HEMI can't get in the Charger soon enough!
