Sounds like it is time to start tweaking the TB. Is it a SS?

Nope. Not untill I find a wrecked SS and the price is right. But, on the other hand, I have heard that the stock 4.2 shortblock is good for boost. Maybe a big single turbo setup is in order.

The only time some dick wanted to race, I was in the family minivan, its a a v6 so I nailed it next to the Z28 that was driving like an *******, made him look twice lol. The other night I was coming home from work in the camaro and saw an LS2 GTO on Rt. 53 in Woodridge and punched it from a 30 roll after turning left and he wasn't havin it, I think I scared him away.

I thought that **** only happened to me in my neon!
every frickin night when I'm on my way to my parttime in downtown, I go down I-55 I get a guy who drives a nissan 350Z and always wants to get "spirited" on the eway. But the few times that I have taken the TA u bet I have returned the damn favor! he took it and got whipped 2x on the same night and it felt damn good doing it!
But when I'm in the neon, they alwayz advantage of me! LOL
