Finally selling my 2000 firebird that has been the love of my life for the past 5 years. I originally bought it as a v6 car with 52000 miles on it. I turbocharged the v6 and broke the crank in half. I then gutted it all over again and dropped in an LQ9 and began going big. Its a blast to drive. You can lay the mickey thompsons tread down at 75mph on the highway at 15psi. I have ran it up to 30psi (short period of time) and it loved every minute of it. That was overdriving the injectors at 60psi before the boost correction. Fuel system has been tested to over 130psi holding pressure. In case you really need some flow. (not recommended) At 24psi it has about 92% duty cycle so if you want to run that a lot I would go with bigger injectors. I never got it dyno'd or ran it on the quarter mile. The one day I planned on going i blew the first transmission. This transmission has been built to hold 1000 whp from a professional shop. It has held on every occasion. I will greatly miss the car but need to move on with my family and life. I do not have the time I used to and now find no time to drive the car. I have driven it probably 300miles and the only problem I have come to so far is the headlights are giving me problems. I can likely fix it in a day but is currently in storage.I have a newborn right now and time to look into this stuff is limited. I have spent 45000 on this car and think 20,000 is not at all unreasonable. I say spent because people who say invested are idiots because you never make money modifying a car of your own. I understand this and hence the price. All my exterior pictures
