Default The 3rd newbie here from maryland!!!!

Hey guys. My name is Martin. I live in germantown, MD(next to Rockville), and i own a 1992 Eagle Talon TSI AWD. I had a JDM 4G63t engine put in the car. The U.S. engine is on an engine stand right now being rebuilt to handle nitrous, bigger turbo etc....I am usually in the DSMtuners.com forums.

Now i might have that car but my dream car is a 1998-2002 Trans Am WS6, for the intimidating look and the LS1. What i wanna do is purchase the LS1 engine...block, head, trans, and put it ona stand and rebuild it. Then purchase a body some1 might be selling....ill have to be patient for that one, but i would like to know if any of you know any websites that sell the ls1 engine?

Also i really haven't been into cars that long....my brother has though. So we pretty much do everything together and i sponged everything we did up, and i can pretty much do everything on some 4 cylinder imports. Ive never worked on a 8 cylinder b4, so bigger engine im new too.

Thanx, and i hope i have a great time here.

Welcome, I used to be a DSM man myself. Nice cars, but LS1's are better and faster.

I've owned a
1990 GSX
1993 STEALTH TwinTurbo
1997 GST SPYDER
2000 ECLIPSE GT

Now I own a
2001 TRANS AM
2004 2500HD SILVERADO
AND HOPEFULLY A CORVETTE in the near future. Z06 of course.

Hells yea.....did you mod your GSX. Im looking into the Gareet T3/T4 hybrid turbo, Stage III, 50 trim, .63ar. Smaller than the stage V, which mean less turbo lag....also some dsmers said it spools real quick right off the line....which must be nice.

I want a LS1 and i want to twin turbo it....i havent done much research on it yet....but what turbo kits are out there for the LS1? Websites any1????
