And I'll FINALLY order a catch can. It's beyond me why I haven't done so already.
I like my trifecta transmission tune in day to day driving too! It's fun gunning it and feeling it hit as hard as it does. It just feels like it just throws you forward with every shift.

Who's doing your emblem? If you don't mind saying. You can pm me if you want. But I've been looking for someone who does custom emblems but won't charge me an arm and a leg for them

I don't have a catch can either. I've always meant to buy it but just haven't got around to it because there's always something else to buy

Lol, it's pretty awesome! I can't wait til I go make a pass at the drag strip. I'm hoping I'm in the 13's now, lol. I need to take some unsuspecting passengers along for the ride...

I'm having it done by emblempros. It's kinda pricey, but less than I was expecting for what I want done.

Lol, that's why I haven't bought one. Always something with more instant gratification to buy. That and I can never decide between RX or Elite.

I do know that when I get one it will be an Elite can. Just because of the ease of emptying the Elite can. Being able to unscrew the bottom of the Elite can makes it easier to empty. That's just my opinion though.


Any chance that you'll be coming to Texas Camaro Revolution?

Yeah, I think I'm going to order an elite can soon. For that same reason.

I'll be there Saturday only. I've gotta be disciplined and study.

I know how you feel, have a few papers to do and some tests coming up but this weekend, I'm going to at least drag race on Friday and go watch the autocross on Saturday just to relax a bit before I have to kick it into high gear for the last part of the semester.

I have an exam coming in a couple of weeks over what seems like a mountain of info. I wanted to dragrace, but with it being open for a regular test'n'tune night, I don't think I'd make very many passes. Saturday will give me a chance to catch up with people and meet new C5 members.

Had the Camaro dyno'd post header install and tune. The numbers were 253 hp and 246 tq. Was hoping for a little more than that...

I just got my custom grill emblem, courtesy of Emblempros. This is a quality piece! Can't wait to install it!

Hey, I didn't see your post 'til just now! I use Corel's Paint Shop Pro X4. It's a pretty decent program; I mainly do my pictures in HDR (High Dynamic Range) photography, as well as slightly longer exposures to capture the color better. The vette will look nice in IOM! Can't wait to see pics!!!

Today marks 3 years with my Camaro! It's come a long way since day 1, and still has room for so much more... The next upgrade will be a sub/amp, with install likely happening next weekend.

Just a quick, up-close cell phone pic. I've been waiting to get "quality" photos until my front bowtie is redone.

What sub/amp upgrade are you going with? I'm at the point where I'm ready to upgrade my factory hookup.
