Paging BlackSun!.........
Hi John,:seeya how's the car doing since leaving FLP? Haven't heard from you in a while. You probably haven't gotten out of your car since it was tuned and I don't blame you! :yesnod:

Re: Paging BlackSun!......... (LuvmyC5)
Hey!!!! Actually when it was raining yesterday I didn't get to take it out at all. But I had it out tonight. THIS THING HAULS ASSSS!!!!! I totally killed a GN tonight that was modded. So that made me feel REALLY good. You really can't judge how quick this thing is. It pulls so smooth. But off the line it seems a bit sluggish then the boost kicks in. So, I am going to be talking with Chuck at FLP on Monday about swapping the TC to a 2800-3200 and maybe adding the 4 inch downpipe while it is there. So far it is running GREAT!!! Dan did a great job on tuning. No bad idle, No bogging ect. A HUGE HUGE THANKS to both FLP, Cerra & Powerhouse Performance for all their time and help!!! And also to all you forum members who helped out!!! I appreciate all the opinions (even the heated ones!) Help, and Offers to help out!!! That really says alot about this place!!!! The end of the tunnel is really close now!!! I just need to come to terms with Mike about this FLP bill, get my metal coolant box and then get my body damage repaired and I'm golden again!!!! Feels good to drive the car again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !! I missed it. :yesnod:

Congrats on the positive news (and the GN kill! :D). Having just spent the last hour reading the archives on drag tires, however, I'm thinking with your final #s and after that torque converter swap, those BFGs might not cut the mustard!!
Er, ET Streets, here you come (but not in that rain you mentioned, of course).
