Yeah, and the colder mornings we have been having aren't helping traction either!

Heck...that was 5pm yesterday that I figured that out. LOL
She's a fun one!
I took my two daughters, 8&7, to dinner last night at Fridays...they like it when I get on it and when I did you could hear the blower whine then the tires scream anytime I rolled into the throttle. Oldest said, "daddy what was that's noise?". I replied, "horsepower."

Getting ready to get a set of headers to try. Gpi has a deal on some in stock kooks I will probably do unless I find used something's quicker. I'm not changing the 2.5" exhaust for the simple fact that it doesn't drone on the hwy.

Headers made my car drone quite bad. It's a variable.

The more I read threads like this the more I want to go with a vvt cam

They don't cost any more than a non-VVT cam assuming you have an L99. A VVT cam just requires a tuner that knows how to tune for it.
