i dunno if Thunder Racing is still there or not, or is it Thunder Auto, anyway Steve is the owner and a nice guy. The mainly do fords, but he put a vortech on my 94 t/a awhile back. i tried to see if they have a website but i kept turning up the other Thunder in another state. last time i was there the shop was off boynton beach blvd i think and I-95 but that was about 6 years ago. i know they make custom intakes and such. anyone else know if they still in business

I don't hang out where I don't like the rules, nor do I frequent forums which have "stupidest" rules.

i posted a answer to the guys question, if were not allowed to post links, then why is the thread allowed.

i could see if your trying to bait people for profit, but when someone asks it dont seem wrong to answer. i see nothing posted in that sticky not allowing it unless its worded a bit differently. im not affiliated with anyone.


if you were not talking to me the first time, then im sorry. but it seemed like you were.

i am talking to everyone. you can discuss shops that you like and dislike, and even reference shops that you have had experience with. but you can not post links or contact information for shops that are not sponsors of this site. there is not trick or special wording. contact links and information IS direct advertisement. nothing wrong with discussing your experiences with shops or asking questions.
