• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

My First Grand Prix.

GenVibe.Com gallery :: Supercharged Pontiac Vibe Autocross :: DSCF0021

The base model is full of spunk with a 1.8L I-4, which produces 130 [COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important][COLOR=blue ! important][FONT=inherit ! important]horsepower[/FONT][/FONT][/COLOR][/COLOR] (97 kw) and 125 lb.-ft. (170 Nm) of torque. This base engine red lines at 6000 rpm, yet still gets great fuel economy - estimated 29 mpg city / 36 mpg highway with a manual transmission. The inline four is a front-mounted, transverse design with dual overhead cams. A five-speed manual transmission is standard on the base engine and a four-speed automatic is available. The all-wheel-drive version is available exclusively with the automatic transmission.
The high-performance GT engine, also a 1.8L powerplant, is rated at 173 horsepower (129 kw) and can rocket the Vibe from 0-60 mph (0-97 km/h) in the low 8-second range. The power comes from a combination of changes, including modified heads and the VVTL-i system that increases the intake/exhaust lift when engine speed is high, improving output and fuel efficiency.
The base model gets an even bigger boost with a newly available SPO (GM Service and Parts Operations) supercharger kit. Installed at Pontiac dealers, the SPO supercharger is designed specifically for Vibe's 1.8-liter engine and is fully warranted for the same period as the Vibe. With the supercharger, the Vibe will gain 7.5 pounds of engine boost and an approximately 35-percent increase in horsepower and torque. Combined with either the standard five-speed manual or available automatic transmission, this makes Vibe one of the great small performance rides in America.

And welcome OP, if even you don't produce pics of said whipple...this thread will still deliver, have no fear.
 
I am dying to see this picture too! I like how your car says Pontiac on the back bumper. Wish mine had that. And I didn't know the sedans could have dual exhaust. I must of never realized that before.
