You f***ing kidding me man?? haha, You go to P-vegas (UWP) too?? What year are you?? This is gonna be my second year there, maybe you've seen my 96 white Camaro RS driving around there?? I dont remember ever seeing a newer black TA, though (did you just get it). I just got into the LS1 family a few days ago with a red 2000 Z28/SS, so you might see that down at pville for a few weeks when school starts up again.

...Might have ta race down there sometime haha

Later dude

I had it there last year for a little while. stored in during winter plus hate to see it outside getting dirty. I lived at SW last year so my car was always at the bottom lot. Hell yeah we need to get the f-bodies to represent!

sweet! ya I'm in SW this comming year, I was lucky as hell to get in. But ya that new TA looks amazing, what year is it? Did you switch out the ls1 intake for the ls6 yourself, how hard was it? I was thinking of doing that to my car, but I dont want to get into something over my head (aint all that good with modding cars, ill admit it).
Heres a pic of my new baby, I love her

it is a 2000 and yes i did the swap myself pretty easy mod the hardest part for me was getting the EGR off on mine because in 2000 they switched the EGR position, had to use a some extensions and swivals. besides that the back fuel injector wires are kind of a pain to get to but all in all pretty simple just take your time. here is a link on how to do it. http://ls1howto.com/index.php?article=5 O and are u A4 or M6? im M6

I've got an A4 ...wanted a manual but I found this one for the price and condition I was looking for, so I wasnt gonna pass up a good deal with alot of the stuff I already wanted on it. But ya I checked out that link and ya thats a lil to complicated for me haha. Maybe this winter over xmas break when its being stored I might get up the courage to pull that stuff apart and swap in an LS6 intake.
Until than I think I might go with either a programmer (either a Hyperpac or I might try to figure out EVI Live or HP programmers, not sure yet) Or I might put on headers if my buddy is willing to help me out with it, hes goes to pville too thats where i met him (I dont know if you know Joe Krubsack or not, he just bought a Dodge Stratus R/T and just supercharged it, he used to drive one of the "riced" avengers around pville). But ya I was talking to him last night and he said there are a bunch of drag strips down there, so we all might have to go to one sometime.

Oh and we'll have ta kick that purple/blue Rouch Mustangs *** sometime, the one that is always parked outside of Wilgus haha. Show him GM cars are the best.
