On a seperate note, I took the car to Motiva today for it's baseline dyno. My run was run #1, run #2 belonged to IDK??? Anyway, I guess 388RWHP isn't too bad for a couple of bolt-ons...
Great price...ish!!

388 baseline is nuts. Mine was 369. You should rage it up dirty with the Whipple and 4" pulley.

Meth???

#sequestration might help that.

Honestly, that supplied tube is going to do for you what any other aftermarket intake will. I'd just rock the stock box with a drop in K&N and let it eat.

Gonna be a fun Summer this year.....

I do not. LOL They're good for them I think. I just never caught on to the Mini Craze. I did dig the His and Hers Photoshoot.

That shade of Blue is all that attracts me to it. Everything else would be to put in a storage locker for the next 10 years and then see what it's worth.

Rather have a 1LE and a ported Whipple with half a dozen sets of DR's for 51k.

yea, I just don't know about the packages where they put stuff on the seats and badges and call it a day (like the indy 500 one and hotwheels). Now if they do something cool to the body or engine then thats another story...

Anybody know of a good muffler shop, Rio Rancho or ABQ, that TIG welds? I need to add an O2 bung to my SS headers. Thanks in advance...

MBS does good exhaust work in the RR. Never had em TIG though...never asked.

There are some fly by night guys working out of their garages up there that are good too I hear.

I know Lorenzo has a guy that does some good work. I'll see if I can get his number.

GM shoulda slapped a Maggie on the HW car or at least a 8-71 Belt Driven Blower on it to make it more like a HW.

My opinion. LOL

Thanks for the info. 8-71 gets my vote, but if we're truly going HW fashion, let's kick it up to a 16-71. Check this out....
