Default The LS1 Is Here

For those who don't know me, I'm Jam, and I have been driving a 94' Z28 Vert A4 for 2 years now...and now I had bought my second F-body. It's a 2000 Trans Am 6spd with 53k miles. ALL from slaving myself in Chilis for about 8 months.

mods:
- SLP air lid
- Pacesetter ceramic coated(race style) LT headers
- TSP Ypipe w/ cats
- SLP LM2
- Eibach pro-kit lowering springs 1.5” (SELLING)
- Toyo Proxes-4 (under 500 miles)
- WS6-store short-stick

DYNO TUNED by PSI motor sports in New Tripoli, PA

MADE 339rwhp/325rwtq

Wow what a clean car. Now all you need is a WS6 hood and some nice wheels for it. Good luck with it, sounds like you got yourself into something good.

thanks guys. ya i like the MBA phoenix shift ball from Ws6Store. my summer mods are going to be mostly appearance until I get used to driving the car. so ws9 hood then most likely wheels. in the mean time I will be doing a few performance mods and free mods. In two years i'll probably be going procharger, but who knows .

EDIT: the faults of the car are as followed: 2-3 paint chips in the front bumper, a small cig burn in rear passenger seat, a dime sized chip in the spoiler and there's a scuff in the drivers seat. but besides that the car is pretty immaculate.
