haha....I actually drive it quite a bit....everything i need is within 4 miles from me. Work is only 2 miles away.

My daily driver is a 2012 Ram that i bought new and i drive that thing everywhere. Just turned 21K on that!!

How do you like the gauge pods so far? I've been looking for stockish looking gauge setups and i not sure between this one or the adm dual gauge setup. I like how it uses the cluster bezel but it look like it is kinda in the way also.

I wouldn't buy anything from ADM -- horrible customer support and difficult to get ahold of unless on his time frame.

I love them! The pods themselves fit great, look great and i get a ton of compliments on them because they are "Different".

I don't think its in the way at all. Your not really missing out on anything. It kinda covers the fuel gauge, but only full. But all you have to do is move your left to the left 12" and you can see. Other side is the temp. Only missing out on the very bottom "cold" part. so the two things that really matter out of those gauges is 1-are you overheating and 2- are you running low on gas, both of which are in plain sight!

Also you can't really see the spedometer under 40mph, but in the 4.5 years I've owned the car i don't think I've even looked at that spedo gauge. Always look at the HUD or the DIC in the center

Wow. They are cool. Different and I like them!

You have done a lot of work on your car in four years. You have one of the nicest looking cars IMO! Very eye catching and yet still holding on to the Camaro heritage of being a muscle car. You truly love your car and it shows.

Great job Tim. Congrats!

Haven't updated in a little bit,

In June i added some QTP electric cutouts to the car.....INSANE LOUD...when open. Love them!!

In August I was visiting my Mother with my family, went to leave and had all alarms start going off on car after started. Monitor said

"Low oil pressure, Turn off engine". uh oh!!...tried it again, same message, and oil pressure gauge read 0

Had it towed down to Jannetty Racing, sure enough stock Oil pump failed, the oil release valve on the inside was seized.

They replaced the Pump with an upgraded Melling pump and changed the Timing chain and tensioner out while they were in there.

Just this week i started to notice that my AFR on my Gauge was running higher than normal. At WOT, i was running 11.2-11.5, The car is now running WOT at 12.2-12.5 (more lean).

Concerned I called Ted again and ran me through some things to check, all were fine. Seems like i have a fuel issue under heavy acceleration. Under normal load its 14.5 and moderate pedal its 11.5, So its getting enough fuel when I'm not wide open.

This leads JRE to believe that either my stock SS fuel pump is failing or the Voltage booster to that pump is failing or both:thumb down:.

So Next Thursday (15th) Ill be going back down to Jannetty and having a ZL1 pump with controller installed.

While there they will be changing the 3.4 pulley on the supercharger to 3.2. I was running 9.8lbs boost and this should bump it to 11-11.5 range. When they retune the car i will be adding Torco race fuel. Hopefully gaining another 40-50RWHP.

Ill be updating next week.
