Default How about roll call

i was thinking we have lost some guys and gained a lot it could be nice to know who all is on here where they are from what they have done with the car and what their goals are figure it might help networking and communication

Paul, 20yo

Minnetonka MN (suburb of the twin cities)

2007 GXP 17K miles Mods to date in sig dynoed 251 stock

Goal/plan (once i have a fickin job)

-Get close to 300 whp while keeping my warrenty intact
after that i plan on getting some kirkey seats and hitting weight reduction hard also planning on making a way i can remove the exhaust after my cutout for additional savings

-shoot for the fastest et i can like that
-would be nice to see the car in GMHTP in the street heat section
- oh yeah not destroy my transmission

everyone should post in this one!

mods....I'll update this later my sig no longer reflects everything that has been done

future, I'm very close to the ls1/6 intake swap just money has been diverted to the NAIOA Houston meetup on the 24th instead so after that I'll be back on track with the plans beyond that next mod will be upgrading the tranny to handle upto 600whp+ and some possible bottom end work to dump some N20 for quick hp boost.
