Finally made the appointment
Well after 6 months of parts taking up garage space I finally made the appointment to get installed. It was orginial going to be done by another forum vendor when I lived in Atlanta but the timing never worked out and I still have a large credit their that we will need to work something out if they ever answer me (I know he will read this). Thanks to 16 again for giving me the number to horsepower sales. I spoke with the owner tonight on the phone for almost an hour. They will be installing my Vararam spacer, Halltech intake, LG Headers, GM Borla exhaust (If there is drone, Corsa will go on and the Borla will be in the F/S section), ABS of Steel, red calipers from WCC, skid wheels, GM side grills, Halo bulbs and chrome rotor covers (Thanks Tracy - mod) and Mike Norris will be doing the tune next Friday.
We are discussing after I pick the car up adding the Maggie and a tranny upgrade kit. Lets see how the car feels after stage one next week.

Rodger is great. He put on my DynaMAXX headers and my Corsa Sports. Thursday he will be adding my Halltech CAI and lowering the car using the WCC kit. Tim, his son, told me Mike was tuning on Saturday, 12/10, that's when I'm having my C6 tuned.
Interested in your comments about the Magnuson S/C, have had my eyes on it since it came out. I will talk to Rodger on TH about it.
What did the red calipers from WCC cost?
BTW, what will the Vararam spacer do? They did not mention anything about a spacer to me.
We need pics when your C6 has been modded by Horsepower Sales.

Without looking it up the calipers I believe were 400.
He gave me an appointment for Mike on Friday.
Is your car an auto or stick? How does it run with similar mods?
Is the CAI like a bottom feeder? That's why I did do the LPE intake.
Vararam spacer supposely gives a better air flow in the motor is that true ??? but for 60 bucks who cares.
Rodger says he has the Vararam intake but Halltech isn't a bottom feeder and never heard anything bad and I am not going to agrue over a couple hp.
The stereo and such mod and pics have been posted but will post more when done.

$440, just went to their website, I think I'll continue to seek someone local to powder coat them.
Maybe he will be in for both days, I'll verify on TH.
6 sp, and I love the way if handles so far. the sound, especially when running thru 1st and 2nd gears is beautiful.
No, the CAI is not a bottom feeder, that's why I selected halltech over LPE.
Where did you get the spacer?
When are you taking your car in? Maybe I'll see you there.

LAPD for the spacer but I am sure they sell it.
Dropping the car off Monday or Tuesday and the car will be there all week. I love the lowered look but the car sits so low and don't want to change the ride like in my Harley truck.
