Cool First LS1/SS Camaro
I have really enjoyed reading all the postings on this site. I have learned a great deal over the past few weeks. After the station wagon, mini van and SUV I finally got a car for fun. It blows my mind the amount of money being spent on these cars. Let me tell you about the two things I plan on putting in my car:

1. GAS
2. OIL

It's already a fun car to drive. Except for a custom tune I'm going to leave it the way it is.

Don't forget tires. And while you are getting new tires you'll decide to spice up the looks a bit and get new wheels. Then you'll want to sound a little different, so you'll get a catback, headers, and y pipe.

Don't worry bud, you are in the early stages of denial. We ALL say the same thing at first, then you start reading this site and learn how easy it is to make even more power...and more...and more...and more...

I will admit I have thought about 18" wheels but I can stop there, honest.

Yeah right, pal.

Wait about a month.

BTW, good to see an Akron'r! I've got family in Akron. Next time I'm up there I'll shoot you a PM and we can meet up... one ride in a cammed car and I bet you'll change your mind quickly.

Typical addict. That's like someone trying crack once and saying I'll stop there. Soon enough they are a full blown crack head. Some can do it some can't.
