Default Newbie from Modesto, CA

well, Turlock, Ca actually...but close enough! Just wanted to say Hello and let you guys know that the site is awesome. I'm new to 4th gens and recently acquired a 1997 SS from a friend. Some of the mods are.....fully built LT1, polished & shotpeened crank, scat rods, TRW 8:1 pistons, ported heads, Procharger P-1sc @ 14psi, Hooker headers, MSD 6al and boost retard box, A4 built by Shift Management Inc in Sacramento. 12 bolt is next!
Ran 11.8 on 275/40/17 Yokohama avs 100's and pump gas.

EDIT: Pics added. Enjoy!

Welcome to the club. I grew up in Turlock and live in Hilmar now. I think I've seen you around town before.

Hey man. I went to Grace Davis High my Junior and Senior year. I live in Yuma, AZ due to my current job. Every once in a while I bring my car home. I bet you really lay it to most of the Imports in the area.

Sweet! Another local. I'd love to check out you're car. PM me when you get a chance. You didn't have your A4 built by Performance Trans in Hilmar did you? They built mine 3 times before I finally took it to SMI in Sacramento. The longest it ever lasted was 3,000 miles.

Yeah, I had it built there and haven't had any problems since it was rebuilt 16k miles ago. The owner made sure it was done right considering I was his neighbor at the time and he knows I would've killed him if he didn't

Glad it worked out for ya. Unfortunately, my setup is a little more radical. He was actually trying to get me to back down the horsepower for a while. That's when I decided to go elsewhere. A coworker of mine told me the other day that Dave was bragging about the trans he built for my car. I guess he forgot to mention that it lasted a whole 3,000 miles and I had to go somewhere else to get it done right!

14 P.S.I. uh huh!!! I remember you telling me it was stock with 6 P.S.I. but now??

If that is true why were you scared to run my GT with the N20?

That is OK though, I'll see you at Sac on the 10th, hopefully we can get it on in the grudge lane.

Later friend,

Perry
