Default H2s?

Just wanted to see if there were any members here driving the H2s, and if so what kind of upgrades they have done to increase power and gas mileage. Trying to get a feel of the potential of the vehicle, thanks!

i have seen quite a few people driving tahoes and avalanches it will prolly be the same thing which is potential wise maybe a 13 depending on the setup im sure there is faster but with something that big it is going to be hard to get it moving heck if i remember right i have seen an avalanche with a whipple only running 15's for me that would put me VERY easily into the 13's prolly low 13's if not even better when tuned right

Thanks, I know this one in particular has the extreme off road pack or something, so suspension is supposedly beefed up. What kind of engine do these run from factory, 5.3 or 6.0L?

Why the mention of the 2WD? I wouldn't imagine that would have been an option for a Hummer, please explain.

Oh, OK just getting the jump on my dumb Q&A period I see, thanks. These we can then put on some pretty stout bolt-ons from F-body R&D right?

yeah off road will be heavy duty but be careful with anything 4wd or awd when you put a lot of power through the drive train they are a little weaker from what i understand than just a 2wd drive train if im not mistaken i am sure someone else will chime in on this

the h2's aren't made for really off raoding. they give that look but is no way meant for it. Actually around here and the few of my friends who own the h2's ahve been very disappointed in them, 2 of the h2's ahve had 2 new transmissions put in. One was sold after that and the other one is falling apart. I jsut don't think their worth all that money and all the parts are from a che4aper class of vehicle. Personally I really like the look of the h2's with the bed but would still never buy one jsut becasue of the quality issues.
