Default Newbie here

Just picked up a bone stock 2000 SS A4 with 54k miles. I'm new to the LS1 community. Ive always wanted one and finally decided to get it. Ive been reading threads for the past couple of months on here and i'm familiar with the search function

My plans for now are a stall, full exhaust, LS6 intake, tune, new shocks and lowering springs,17x9 / 17x11 wheel combo, and a stereo upgrade (New head unit, replace front and rear speakers, and 1 10" sub ) . I just installed my first mod which was a lid.

From what I can see, there is a wealth of knowledge on here and I look forward to being a part of the community.

Stall was my favorite mod to mine so far. Really livens up an auto. Be careful with the drag radials though, 4L60E's with tear themselves apart quick, if the rear doesn't go first.

You wont really have to worry about the rear with an auto. I do have an instance tho where I launched on drag radials on the street and my posi with almost 230k on it started pulling 1 leggers lol.
