Proud new owner from Pittsburgh...
Just purchased a Silver '02 WS6 Immaculate shape. My dad has a 1979 TA with 37,000 miles on it now I have my bird... Mine is a tad bit faster.. Any one from the Pittsburgh area???

I have one pic... weather isn't great up here yet. I don't want it out on the road till we get about 5-6 good rains to clean all the salt.
I am going to Start with the mods very soon. I want to hang with my buddy and his 04 Cobra. Plus I want a great sound... where should I start? a Lind and a catback seems like the overwhelming favorite. I won't be making it to the track... just want it to be street fast... I will only put about 4,000 miles a year on it. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
Russ

Auto or Stick? A lid is the usual first mod, along with a K&N or similar filter. Doesn't matter for the most part whiuch one, just would depend on your taste. If your buddys Cobra is stock, Longtubes and full exhaust are a must. A tune wouldn't hurt either. If your a stick a Clutch would be a good idea, or a stall. If you have an auto, the auto guys would know which one to get, I don't have a clue. If your friend has a not so stock Cobra, Heads and Cam would be up next.
Unfortunately his is not stock and I don't neet to be around 400 HP but it would be nice. too much money to dump into a car I have for a beach car. that is the only reason i bought it. well that and I have always wanted one. I want it to sound great and look good. it is the silver paint and not too keen on the stock WS6 wheels. I am thinking gunmetal grey or black wheels. what do you all think?
I have the M6 tranny. is that the T56?? Now since my divorce i actually have pretty sufficient funds for playing with my new toy. If I would just go with the lid and the cat back, what kind of increases am I looking at? I need to have emissions which sucks but it is what it is. Should I do a free flowing cat as well? i definitely want the two tip look coming out of each side. Don't want it to be obnoxious, just right ya know...
With a lid and CB, your #'s depend on what it does bone stock. I'd guess if it dyno's 305-310 stock to some where in the 320 range with a lid and CB. Lid LT's and a CB your looking at about 330-340.
ok a lid is a lid... but any idea on what LT's and catback I should get... I don't want it to be obnoxious, but I would like people to know when I start my car. I would also like to get as much performance out of it that I can, (was I Capt'n Obvious with that). I actually like the sound of the V8 on www.borla.com How are Bassani exhausts???

thank you all for the warm welcome...
A few more questions... what type of oil and tranny fluid should I be running. also what about the rearend fluid? that will be the first thing I do. get all the fluids changed. one nice thing is I am still under warranty till the end of 2007 or 50,000 miles. I think I will see the end of 2007 first..
I would also like a True DD set up.. i believe the performance will be the best out of those. does that mean I need some LT's.. I also have to worry about emissions being that i live close to a major city. I want everyhting to be leagl... maybe a high flowing cat is needed. or are there whole systems meaning headers cats and cb that i can buy...?

right here buddy. when big ben passes more than 9 times / game on average, then we'll talk.
don't get me wrong he's good, but overated. look what peyton did without a defense the past couple years. i'll take gods 3rd son ( peyton ) anytime.

He is inbred just like Eli. he is a machine... but is easily rattled... and
big ben does throw about 16 passes a game... but when he did have to throw a lot like 35 against cincy for 380 yards... he can. why throw if you can run over teams...

anyway, let's get this back on topic.

haha what's up pete, that bet was over a long time ago!
Hi there hun & nice ride! Not Pittsburgh, but I have family in Philly.
Def think you made the right choice going with the WS6 rather than the other ride you talked about getting. I have some clips of my SLP CME if you want to hear them...
Also, I have a queston for you regarding arch. & glass...I meant to ask you yesterday, but forgot.
Anyhow, welcome to the site & let the mods begin!
