Can't wait to finally join the S/C crowd.

Very excited to get my car back from Nickey...hopefully this week. Whipple S/C and a whole bunch of other stuff. Here it is, getting tuned by Corey last week.




Also, added some BMR Suspension stuff and a Driveshaft Shop axle.

Lots of cosmetics done including Hex Vents, Gary's vented fenders, and slotted and drilled rotors.

After I get it back I have to get some engine dress up stuff and install the Phoenix Gold audio kit.

THEN...I will be "done".

My wife said that if I am not "done" after all this, I will need to find a new wife?

(How much does that upgrade cost?)

As the old saying goes. Divorce is expensive because IT'S WORTH IT.

I have the same setup as you do and numbers look right on the money. How much boost they telling you?? Just curious not that its crucial. I am right at about 610 RWHP on my L99 with Ls3 conversion.

Oh yes the added power is great but guess what?? I am already wanting more and I said done as well. LOL

I am in the same boat as you. I thought buying a 600rwhp SC Camaro would make me content......negative. Six months later and Im not bored with it but it is not what you would think it would be like after a while lol.
