Default New guy here...

Hi my name is Mike and I just purchased an 04 V... always wanted one. It's got a couple mods that the previous owner did... Magnacharger, UUC short shifter, and Corsa. Still trying to figure out a few issues that I didn't notice when I looked at the car, but I'm sure I'll get some help here Anyways I'm a bus mechanic in Phoenix, AZ and hope to be of some help as well.

Nice to see some locals here! I'll get some pics up later after work... one important question is where to go for tuning? Arizona Dyno Chip was recommended to me by a friend

There's usually one to four V's at the Scottsdale Pavillions every week. Plenty of other LS powerplants there to get you drooling. I have been starting to show up there more since I got my V a couple of months ago. Some sort of SW "V" day would be a good idea when it cools off for either a cruise, or get together at Firebird.

Default get together?

I would definitely be down to meet up at pavs and maybe set up a firebird day, where we can all discuss launching these bastards and such. I hear its alot better than SIR track in tucson.

Sounds good... I'm not too familiar with the Pavilions, but I have heard about it... if forum members are meeting up just send me a message and I'll try to go.
