Talking Newbie from Houston!

Hey guys, I am from Baytown, Tx (Houston Area) Ive been a member of LS1 Tech for weeks now I just hadnt posted in this introduction forum until now... Well I own a black 99 Trans Am SLP that I bought back about a month ago... Car has a LS1 with 153,*** miles on it. Exterior I would rate it a 7 of 10 and interior would be a 3or 4 of 10. Previous owner kept the car in good conditions from engine, tranny etc etc... Body and interior wise he didnt take a really good care of it. But I bought this car for a project, something to entertain myself after school... I have big plans on this car performance wise, its just matter of time before I drop a 7.0 block in there with a sweet turbo setup 80mm that I bought from a seller in this website(LS1 Tech) I have inverted lots of money performance wise to where ama have to delay the body and interior work for later. And here is the link to the picture of my car of how it sits at the moment. Im gonna change the wheels soon soo ill be selling those wheels eventually
