Nice car lemons and all I can ever remember reading about was how you had a ms4 cam car and its fine for DD. You were always saying I DD this with out this and that bla bla no problems. Just kind of funny but I'm glad you enjoy the new car. What do you mean by corrected times in you sig? Where are you finding this correction and how accurate is this factor?

to tell you the truth.. the "manners" as far as stalling and surging at lights the white one was better to DD... it was the exhaust (being so loud, which that big cam didnt quiet it down any) the gears and no accessories what so ever..
the actual cam itself was not a pain in the least little bit.. its all the other things that made it a pain..
once i get Gomer to tune this one though it should drive as good/better than the ms4..

corrected DA.. the DA on those nights was like +2000... it tells you what your times would be, or very close to it with a DA of 0... from what i have seen they are very accurate..

yes, that would suck...

already did! went the friday after i picked her up!

00 Pewter T/A- 7.21@93.8mph NA (corrected) has plenty left in it!
DA was like 2000 that night as stated... was running consistent 7.4s@91.5 hot lapped..

my goal is 7.1s on the current setup... later on im going AFR's and ported 9090, that should get me into the 6s.. still full weight and driven to/from the track and every day!

SIDE NOTE--- did you go to that meet everybody on ls1.com went to? wade didnt mention everyone..

Sounds like fun!!!

I would be happy with anything in the 6's with my car at sea level.
Could use an automatic, but hell...I enjoy eating clutches in the manual.


SIDE NOTE....negative.

Its a must do imo. I did mine in semi-flat but i'm thinking about doing high gloss now along with redoing all my decals. You have to figure out if you want to paint your decals or go with a chrome finish. Any plans for wheels?

She had a major surgery to bypass her bladder 2 months ago.
Things have been SO much better now for her. Less infections, less kidney pain, etc...
Hindsight is 20/20....but we should have done it a while back knowing it would help her this much.
Otherwise, she is doing GREAT!!!

yea, i didnt even think about it on my white one.. ordered them the day i got it..

but this one is so clean looking i dont want to clutter it up..

i would most def. do gloss on the CETA.. im not crazy about the chrome decals usually.. but my buddy has an 03 DSG cobra and it has chrome decals and looks GOOD.. i think on mine though i like black more MAYBE?

yea, i really want some.. gimme your CCWs!
i think im going to have to go with y2k deeps..
i have also been considering c6zo6 deeps though..
your opinion?
