I think his maintenance schedule is for real. He has another thread about it. I cant believe that he is throwing money away like that. I cant believe that you change the freon in the ac system that often. Changing brake pads and rotors every 5000 miles?? what do you do with all the good parts you are taking off of your car? just throw them in the trash?

I agree, wow! There is no way I have the time/money to accomplish half of that schedule!!! Anyway for $1200 you could get close to a a nice matched h/c kit that will put you at 400...

whoops not 1200... I thought I saw that and couldn't find it again, sorry. but with 1200 you could definetly do some easy mods to get to 400. these engines are very responsive to modding. GM screwed the LS1 with all the restrictive things they put on there.

especially a matched set. But bolt ons and a tune will get you near 400.

But it is nice to see you actually care about your! Most people around here treat their cars like sh*t. I just drive the TA when its nice on weekends. Which wont be much at all for the next few months (Stupid winter anyway! ).

Ok man heres what you do TAKE A DEEP BREATH...research...research...research...then ask questions. MAKE YOUR OWN THREAD! If you have any questions dont post on someone elses thread unless you are replying to their thread. When you reply to a thread dont do it in 50 replys just try conbine your questions in one reply. If this is your daily driver dont do it cheap! Just save your money and do it right.

Just a tip... Most people put their setup and numbers in their signatures. That will give you an idea of what you might want.
