  • Sure you could buy a Dodge Demon and go 9s but what if you could go even faster for half the price? In today's video, I drive a 2001 Pontiac Trans Am WS6 with a huge turbo, 1000 horsepower and street manners that your grandma could handle. No this isn't my 2001 Turbo Trans Am. This one is much faster. We break down our builds and how much money we've spent to run 9s and soon to be 8s in the quarter mile, and there may also be some burnouts, drive-bys, and other fun totally legal activities. This is a Legit Street Car! Enjoy!!

    I'm super excited to announce a totally free way that anyone can support the channel!! I was approved for an Amazon Influencer account which allows CZcamsrs like myself, and other creators to earn a small commission from sales generated from people first clicking on my Amazon link, and then buying anything from Amazon. This doesn't cost you a penny as Amazon compensates the creators for driving traffic and sales to the site. So even if you don't buy the product or tool that I link in the video description box, you are still supporting the channel by shopping on Amazon after you clicked through any of my links. Each video will have either specific links to things I use or talk about in the video, or you will see my general LegitStreetCars Amazon link like this. www.amazon.com/shop/legitstre...
    Next time you need car parts, tools, diapers, condoms, fidget spinners or anything on Amazon think of good ole Alex from LegitStreetCars.

      Hell. Yes. First Car '95 Firebird in Dark Green Metallic. Current Car 2000 Ws6 Trans Am in Black (with a few cars in between). Trans Ams are probably my favorite cars of all time. I mean I like Ferrari's and Corvettes, and all that, but if I had to choose, Trans Am.

    Just purchased a Trans Am from my sister that's been sitting for 10 years. 2001 model year with only 60,000 miles.
    There was an issue on cylinder 6 with misfires. Turns out the cam was having an issue. So new cam, push rods, lifters, beehive springs, FAST 92mm intake manifold and FAST 92mm TB, valve job, head tanking, etc. Everything is at the shop other than the cam. Should be sent out beginning of this week. I really can't wait. I haven't messed with a car engine in a long time. For the last 9 years it's been Jeeps, and on those it's largely suspension related.

    Nowhere near as fast as you guys TA's, but mines had Hooker long tube headers, SLP exhaust, Comp cam camshaft, Push rods, Roller lifters, Valve springs, Automatic Trans pak, Strut tower brace, K&N air filter & SLP Air lid, NOS 125hp dry shot, & Cross drilled brake calipers.

I just bought a 1998 WS6 T/A with 140k miles I want to bring it to at least 700+ rwhp. What way do you recommend I go. A stroker eng?engine?? Twin turbo, supercharger or procharger? Fuel delivery system, Trans rebuild and rear end gear?? It has to pass smog, I only drive it a couple times a month and I'd like to take it to the track once or twice a year. Please I desperately need your help. Thank you. Keep on bringing the videos. Love em especially the T/A videos. 👍💯

      For a quarter mile car I'd go pick up a V6 F-body for like a grand of even less. Like a piece of crap car that I could gut. I'd get a junk yard 5.3 with a 4l80e and just open the ring gap on the engine and slap it back together. Then a $800 borg warner turbo, some truck manifolds, tune with hp tuners and put the money into a decent used rear end for around 1500 and a good fuel system for some E85. That's basically what I'd do but man 5 grand is tough.

      BigMolch Thanks! I cruised around in a 1980 Harley for a few years. 1340 shovel head, 4 SPD solid mount. Loved it. How about you?

      Currently as far as motorcycles I have at the moment a 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 2000 classic lt and a 2007 Suzuki gsxr1000. Get back on the horse! I love my cars but the bikes are a special experience.

    Okay I have a 1999 Trans Am 6spd vert, Im looking to go a cheap turbo route about 3k or lower, what would you guys recommend? Im looking to make 500-600hp (Or more after I build the motor a few years down the line). If possible a setup that retains a/c (I live in texas lmao).

      $3,000 may get you a used truck manifold kit but just having the turbo kit won't get you far. You will need a fuel system, tuning and a few other things. I'd keep saving up or go heads and cam for now.

    Great video. What's the value of my pure stock '01 Black WS6 6-manual 75k miles in good used condition? What can I realistically sell it for?

    With the money you need to buy a demon, you could build a nasty little firebird, camaro, or mustang. I guess its all about how much know-how and/ or how much your willing to do yourself.
