Default New guy from Wisconsin

Hey guys I recently bought a 01 black WS6 so I thought I would join the site.

I come from the GM supercharged 3.8 world so having the v8 sound is so much better.

I plan on modding it once I learn how to drive the car as best as I can. I just need to do some small maintenance things.

What do you think the best starter mods are? I wanna be around 350whp.

Here are some pictures of the car. Dont worry im not driving it in the snow thats just from trailering it home from Chicago.

I'm new to the forum as well, and live just outside of Wausau. Glad I found some folks not to far away.
