Dropped off Jekyl, picking up Hyde
Well, some of you may remember that a couple of weeks ago I dropped off my 2000 Mag Red Vert to Obi-Wan (Stephen) at EnglandGreen in Florida. Drove down and then flew back home. Stephen put on AR Headers, Hi-flow Cats, X-pipe, and a Whiplash cam and tune. He's taking it to the Dyno this afternoon for final numbers, and I'm flying down on Saturday morning to drive it back home. Can't Wait! I'll let you guys know the details after I pick it up. Man, I am SO stoked to take a ride in Ms. Hyde! Ms. Jekyl wasn't bad, but now it's time to step up to the next level! Wish me luck, guys-n-gals! Will write more when I return!

Oh, and almost forgot, also had him put in a C6 Z06 shifter, and a catch can in the engine bay, and lower it on stock bolts. Hope it all works well together! Road Trip...... here I come!

I'm in line!
Just waitin' for Stephen to call. I'm getting Whiplash, valve train upgrade and tune. Currently, Stephen has my P1SC-equipped LS1 at 433rwhp. I'll post before and after dyno #'s as soon as I get it back. Anyone want to venture a guess at hp gain? Car has LG LT's, no cats, Indy's and 4.10 pulley.

I vividly recall the long ride home from Stephen's after my cam install last Nov
To say you're gonna have fun is an understatement.
You might find yourself pulling off many exits along the way, for no reason other than to attack the adjacent onramp back onto the freeway.
Enjoy!
