They do track all on-line activity so be careful. Everyone who goes on the internet has their activity monitored and recorded.

I've also heard some folks are having problems with their catch cans; blown gaskets, stuck check valves, not collecting oil, etc.
If JD IT hasn't stopped me yet I don't think there is much of an issue. Haha. Not to mention today was my first day. I actually did really good only getting on there once but it was a pretty slow day for me. Hopefully things pick up for me tomorrow.

As in many things we can add to our Camaro's, they can have issues. However, I'm still on the fence with catch can, I've read many a positive reason on them, but still wonder why many big league builders are not using as part the their performance packages. Tomorrow, I will ask another mega builder, Lingenfelter. I did order for my Camaro, their signature body kit, and since having a meeting in Chicago (Bolingbrook) today, decided to pick up the kit myself (from my meeting location...turns out less than 3 hours away)

Diesel here (a bargin?) for Chicago @ $4.09 but lower end unleaded $4.89 WOW!!!

So just do a single. Lol. Wonder if you can flip the v6 manifolds, would think so. 66mm with a .68 a/r somewhere in that neighborhood. Remember I've got 5000 bucks in my whole truck lowering it swapping in a Gen 3, whole shebang. Turbo stuff was maybe 2 grand. Just gotta do some leg work. I'm upgrading to a different turbo soonish, but my current one is a bit large for a 6. Bit too small for an rpm loving ls3.

Kinda wonder how the v6 camaro would react as compared to the 3800, those guys dip really well into the 10s with single's g-body's aren't particularly light weight either. Find out if you can flip your manifolds and make a merge, or pick up a spare passenger side and ill show you how mine works so you can have a log made. Ill bug the lady at turbonetics about a v6 kit when I order my Turbo. Lol.

I stopped by Wal-Mart on the way home this morning and came out to find a Charger SXT parked respectfully one spot away from my Camaro.

Nothing protects a Camaro more than not being a "Richard Cranium" behind the wheel. Give respect and respect will be given back.

Boss....pftt....that's a Mustang. I am just a guy who works here! (Who found Camaro5 open on the computer and decided to play!)

Besides...Dennis keeps threatening to intercept any MODS I receive here at the shop and keep any that are not green.

My JDP Halo kit is due in here tomorrow...going to be camped out in front of the office to ensure they are safe!

Any of you guys used elemental designs speakers? They're based out of newton, seem to get pretty rave reviews. Thinking about a road trip.

I did not realize that there was a company making speakers in Iowa...hmm. The '57 Buick needs tuneage...perhaps I will look into them.

Thanks for the tip!

just back from Chicago trip with a detour to Lingenfelter to pick up my GFX kit. They have some serious builds going on there. lots of Vettes, Caddies, Surburbans and of course Camaros in their lot. (sorry, no pictures allowed)

They gave me the tour of entire shop. Twin turbo Caddie CTS-V with goal of 1000hp, a Federal Govt Surburban thats completely bullet proof getting big HP adders to push that heavy sucker. Just delivered was a new ZR1 100th Anniversary Vette. This Vette had some true race theme tires and other special adders to it..... all direct from GM! There was a sleeper 2005 Blue Vette also with twin turbos' from Detroit, getting tweaked. It was in the 1000+ RWHP club!! On a rack, a red 2011 Camaro getting full "all out" mods, maggie blower, heads, cam, clutch, axles, body bushings, adjustable coil over package, big Brembo brake kit, rims/wheels.

Lingenfelter's place was spotless clean everywhere.

This is how you are supposed to park James Oh and never start a "respect" thread on the main 'discussion' forum. You will, as you have seen, get eaten alive by the masses. They are dumb and will never understand what respect means.

Am I a jerk for taking up 2 parking spots? My truck requires 1.5 lol

On the elemental designs front, I'm looking at their sq10 - 3 inch mounting depth should let me fit it behind the back seat. I've heard the mid price range subwoofers pack a mean punch with very llittle wattage thrown at them and still maintain a very tight sound.

My neice named my car yesterday, Veruca, as in Veruca Salt from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. She says its appropriate cause the V for 5 and also because Im always looking at what to buy it. So Veruca it will be.

Got my ride out last weekend with the new wheels. I got some nice thumbs ups from the other drivers. You can check out the wheels in my album. I put 275 up front with 315 in the rear
