Default another newb in the midst.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to jump on and introduce myself. I regestered about a year or so ago when I was looking for a part. But don't think I ever posted anything... well it has recently come into light that I want to start doing a little more modding to my car so I figured I'm going to need some help... well I'd like to get to know some of the regulars before I just start demanding help, ya know? So Heres a little about me. I'm 21, I live in Upstate NY, I drive a 2002 Sunset Orange Metallic Trans Am WS6 A4 (with a BLACK leather interior (which was MAJORLY important to me for some reason when I bought the car) its my summer time toy, I have a 2003 Kawi ZX-6R 636 as my other summer toy. I drive a 2001 Chevy S-10 the rest of the year. My WS6 has 42K on it and I bought it going on 3 years ago and have only put 9K miles on it... I do NOT intend on racing it I just want more power for pleasure. My intentions are not really to do internals but it may come to it at some point... Mods are limited to the airlid, a corsa catback, smoothbellow, Last of the breed badging, underhood mirrors... I think thats all I can remember for right now. next step is headers.... thinking QTP with a custom made Y pipe... Well I think you've got plenty to read. I look forward to enjoying conversation with some like minded people.

Welcome to the forum...sounds like a nice and rare car. Please post some pics.
Good luck with the modding...there is a few different ave's you can go with your car...just have to determine how much power you want and mod accordingly. Headers are always a nice gain and sound good.

Thank you. I plan on doing headers.... maybe hopefully even before the summer is over... I'd like 400HP without doing internals.... may be a lofty goal.

ask and you shall recieve pictures...

Welcome. That' s a sweet looking ride!



Uh oh! Looks like someone was having a little too much fun! That' s a nice B4C behind you, too bad is has that gay *** light bar on top. It doesn' t flow well with the car at all! Too 80's looking.

That' s cool. It' s a good looking car, but needs to lose that 1983 lightbar! Not like the officer who drove it had any say-so on it though.
