FINALLY saying whatsup
Hey everyone! Whoa, feels wierd to finally write something on here. Well, I've been an avid ls1tech info stalker for some time now, and figured what the hell, might as well contribute.
I've been researching articles on here ever since my friend and fellow ls1 owner told me about you guys when I purchased my Formula WS6 back in Nov. 2007. My 2nd V8 Firebird and 3rd Pontiac, she's a Black on Black 2001 Firebird Formula WS6. M6, Pontiac 75th aniversary package (hurst, 3.42, etc.) fully loaded that I bought with only 47,000 miles on it (about 18,000 miles ago). The original owner had the dealer install the WS6 package and that's how I purchased the car.
Since then i've only made minor modifications, biggest one being I cracked the hood almost a year ago and decided to go Raptor from Suncoast with the Ram Air intake kit (hood fits my formula front end decent), and I also have a Borla catback exhaust system (adjustable). Next though i'd like to pick up some box tube BMR subframe connectors (any day now), as well as some decent tires; 275 fuzion ZRI's aren't cuttin the mustard (best 60' 2.3x), i'm thinkin Nitto 555's because it sees the street 98.2% of the time, and i'm rather fond of my 10-bolt as well, atleast until i get my tax returns (was it just me, or did rear-end prices go way up this year?).
So anyway, i know this thread is kinda lame w/o pics, so i'll try to get some up here soon. Atleast i'm not this guy anymore! (was for way too long, though.)
