Default New guy from Dallas

Picked up a silver 2001 Procharged/intercooled vert with Borla Stingers, shorty headers and short shifter. 34k miles. There are probably some other upgrades I'll discover at some point because the previous owner had no clue what was done to the car. His loss I guess. I'm loving it though! Looking forward to picking up tidbits of info from the forum.

Thanks Eric. I drove her all the way back from NJ to Dallas and the speed was there! Haven't been able to drive much lately because, like many others, inspection failed. Evap and catalyst. Hoping to get it looked at next week.
