Default Wanna be on Two Guys Garage?

We are looking for anyone with a nice looking LS1 to be a donor for the nationally televised TV Show Two Guys Garage which airs on Speed Channel.

Two Guys Garage is doing a special on the STS kit. They will first dyno the vehicle as stock, then install the STS Kit, then re-dyno the vehicle to show gains from the STS Kit.

To qualify you must have:
- LS1 FBody: Z28, SS, TA, WS6, etc.
- VEHICLE MUST BE BONE STOCK, absolutely no mods, not even an exhaust!
- Clean, good paint, wheels, tires, etc.
- Relatively low miles (under 50K)
- The newer the better.

What do you get out of it?:
Your car on national television and everything below
1. Base STS Kit (msrp $3799.00)
2. Methanol Injection Kit (msrp $499.00)
3. Boost controller (msrp $150.00)
4. Installation, typically about $500.00

Price:
Approximately $3300.00, contact us for exact details

Location:
This will take place in Tampa, Florida

Date:
The date the car will need to be in Tampa is from October 15-21


For more information on the STS Kit, check out:
www.JLTurbo.com or www.STSTurbo.com

You may ask questions, but please direct any interests to us. Yes we need a stock engine, that means stock heads and stock cam.

My Fiance's TA is in Near perfect condition, Bone stock except exhaust which I have a SLP Y-pipe to go on, (she has true duals bolted to factory manifolds) Her car is white 2000 Auto TA, pics of her car on page 6 of my cardomain site. I have one question is the kit provided and paid for by the show or will the cars owner have to pay for the kit?

My dad has a 2000 SS fully loaded from GM and SLP that is completely stock down to the original paper filter. It's a garage queen and I am sure he would love to do something like this.

I've got a 2001 Sunset Orange Firehawk with 29,000 miles. Its 1 of 19 Firehawks made in 2001 with Sunset Orange paint and is a beautiful car. Its basically bone stock with the addition of an SLP air lid, and dynomouth exhaust. Its in showroom new condition and took 2nd place in the 2003 Pontiac Southern Nationals show in Dallas Texas. I'd love to do this and have always wanted to fix the car up, been an f-body fanatic for over 8 years so if you guys wanna see pics of the car send me a PM or I'll see if I cant dig some up here BTW my 21st birthday is September 20th here are a few pics

I'll do it! That would be cool! All I have is a SLP air lid, a cat back, and a March underdrive pulley. I could visit my Aunt out in Florida at the same time. I haven't seen her since she moved there.
