Talking New guy....

Ok, not really a new guy..Ive been lurking around for the last few months now. Thought it be appropriate to give an intro. The name is Zach, and im currently overseas in Iraq with the U.S. Army. I just bought my 2000 Trans Am WS6 M6 on my mid-tour leave while I was back in the states this last April. Other than a few miles, its almost mint and I got an EXCELLENT deal on her from my best friend back home. Right now an H/C swap is in the mix along with FULL exhaust . Cant wait till this Nov to take her out for a spin...This site has helped me out alot to pass the time away while over here and there is ENDLESS amounts of knowledge to be learned, so thanks and everybody take care.

-Zach

nice car man. i'm new to this site too. i just picked up my 99 ss about a month ago. i put on the clear corner lenses (front and back), chrome emblems, clear airlid from MTI w/ k&n filter. yesterday i ordered a weiand/lingenfelter polished intake manifold from epp, a camshaft from lingenfelter, throttle body and a granatelli mas airflow sensor. oh i also bought a hurst short throw since this ss didn't have it stock. next up is gonna be hooker long tube headers and a borla catback, i need to get my hp up there to try and keep up with my bro... he just got a c6. anyway, thanks for what you are doing out there, i appreciate your service. please be safe out there.

Sounds like you have a good bead on what your set up is will be curious to see what you dyno
Great looking ride!
The toyota in the background looks good but I'm biased, my dd is a 02' silver Tacoma.
