I'm just trying to get mine ready for you

New puppy FTW!! Got it on Saturday and had to stay home. I'll bring him out with us sometime, Australian Shepherd. He's awesome.

i'd take an EVO over a vette anyday...go for just the base, MR is useless...

500whp on pump is a little difficult without money...

yayyyy josh has a job again. no more drugs for you


ryan, are you an idiot????? 01-02 cobra motor???? GAY. if your spending money on any type of cobra motor, it BETTER be an 03-04 KB style, only way to go.


brett, evos are badass, and so are vettes, they both have ups and downs, neither is better than the other...

evo can be quick, AWD, but has 4 doors...

vette can be quick as well, which chris proved that the other night, intake exhaust and a 150 shot and he hits 12 flat at 125 on a 2.2 60' they also look cool, but it can be a pain to work on, and needs drag radials. oh and no turbo, but thats your choice

both have their ups and downs, you just have to pick sacrifices, if you want a 4dr, or if you want to have 450WHP using turbo, or N/A or N20

You know what I love? Waking up for school, not late, but kind of pushing it, getting ready in enough time that you'll make it on time, then walking outside to your car to find it's covered in ******* pink paint . Some douche bag with paintball gun lit up the side of my car last night with about 6 paintballs. so I have to bust out the microfiber towel and detail spray and get all this **** off, thus making me late for school . Regardless there is a wash and oil change on sched for this afternoon when I get home from school, but it still pisses me off that people do that ****. We really need to get all the boxes outta the garage so that I can start parking in there. Ok I'm done.

Hell if he's gonna try and make 500 at the wheel son an Evo, he may just be better off Turbocharging a vette. Probabaly be around the same price. Regardless it's your choice, and either car is badass, so I say it's win win.

Parts for a vette are twice the price as parts for an evo turbo wise. If i turbo a vette it will just go sideways when I punch it. Evo on the other hand will stay in a little straighter line.

Your right josh I read that **** last night and would be happy around 400 with pump. Alchy injection would be introduced with it so it would be like running 106/107. Time will tell. I dont care about the 4 door anymore, it would be nice to have the extra room

Cool, I'm just looking for a couple of people to go, don't want to overcrowd the boat. My GF and I, the doggy, one of my other buddies, and probably 2-3 additional people tops. I don't like having more than 6 on the boat.

It was not bumper to bumper one car there was at least a car between my front and your rear is what I meant. I am definitely in though.

EDIT: You F-body guys third gear pulls HARD.
