I'm an Electrician with an extreme case of "gear head-itis." I have been a vette owner for about 7 months now, I was always a mustang guy before that. I own a black 01 z06 that I recently put an mp112 magnuson blower on. I still have the mail-in tune from Magnuson and I made 466 rwhp and 426 rwtq on 6 lbs, with everything else on my car being bone stock. I have still not found a hood for it, but im working on that. Im from Omaha, NE and im hoping a few people on here will also be. Oh and fun fact, my name is NOT D4DS because thats my license plate. I had to get it after being told too many times at red lights that I should take daddy's car home haha.

I have a 70 428 CJ Mustang, used to have an 871 blower on it. I also had an 01 C5, but I sold it years ago. Now all I have left is my 72 vette. Welcome and sounds like you are loving the Z06. I love my Mustang, but I would rather it be a Vette.
