2004 Pontiac GTO owner Brandon Ambrose is yet another addition to the fast and furious crowd that breathes style and performance with every automotive modification. "I've always liked to go fast in everything I drive," said Ambrose. "But with the GTO, its 5.7L V8 is fast already."
Ambrose bought his GTO in August of 2008. The car was in mint condition with only 50,000 miles on it. "A week or two after I bought it, I tinted the windows 5% all around," said Ambrose. "That same weekend I took second place at the 2nd Annual Amanda S. Cherry Car & Truck Show." It was just the beginning for Ambrose and his custom GTO. "I've showed my car in around 10 car shows since I've had it," he said, "And I've walked away with 7 trophies." Ambrose's trophies include two 2nd place, 1 third place, Best Audio, Top 50 and Top 75. He won first place at the Slam Session Super Show 2009. "When they called my name for first place Pontiac, I was thinking, SAY WHAT?," Ambrose said. "I couldn't help but smile from that point on."

This 5.7 liter Pontiac GTO is equipped with K&N performance intake system 57-3044. "I have been using K&N filters since I had my first car 8 years ago," said Ambrose. "But when I added the K&N cold air intake to my GTO, the increase in power was unbelievable."

Future plans for Ambrose's ride are in the works. "I would like to install a good set of heads and a cam," he said. "I'm going to go with the APS Twin Turbo System."

One of the next big shows for Brandon Ambrose and his custom 2004 Pontiac GTO will be Freak Show 9 sponsored by DropJaw Magazine.
