Joining the SC Crowd!

Thanks to Andy and Josh, I've purchased a black V3 Si kit and will be heading down to their shop right after the first of the year to have it installed. I can't wait! It is going on my stock 2012 GS.

Congrats. You may as well have them put meth on as well. You'll eventually want it anyway and doing it with the SC install will save you some money.

Josh tuned my '08 LS3 when he was here in Texas. It ran in the 9's on 7 of 10 passes in the same afternoon, with a best of 9.75 at 139 (with an Si-trim). I sold the LS3 engine and the owner who bought it told me earlier this year that it is still running strong as NA in one of his cars.
Do get some good tires...your traction will not be the same.

Thanks for the input guys.

Not looking to do meth, as this should be enough fun and I really need it to be reliable and last until I replace it with a C7 Z06.

I've seen the reliability report and many testimonials such as that to know that many have had great experiences with similar configurations.

And I already have a perpetual grin just driving Corvettes (this is my fourth), so I expect a permanent ear to ear head to toe smile once it is installed.

A) Meth actually increases reliability by dropping intake temps and thus reducing detonation risk and B) Everyone says "this should be enough power for me," but that statement typically ends up being as accurate as, "if you like your plan, you can keep your plan."
