    I know these motors put out a fair amount of power. Have any of you ever raced a car with the 3.6l motor? Did it put up a good fight at all? Just woundering.

    Seen one run 14.9's all day at KCIR.

    G6 GXP Coupe.

    Not sure if it had anything done to it, maybe a catback.

    Not bad for a heavy FWD car only rated at like the mid 250's.

    They make peak power in the low to high 6000 RPM range, they'd haul ass on a 3800 on the top end.
