Hello from Colorado
Yet Another New Guy checking in...
My name is Mark, and I'm the proud owner of Loki, a 1999 Pewter Coupe, so called because I occasionally manage to get in a little trouble with this car.
Until today, Loki had a stock LS1 with CAI, throttle body, LS6 intake, TS&P long tubes, Random Tech High Flow Cats, SLP resonators, custom X-pipe and Flowmaster rear. Tuned by RMCR, he put down 350/350 to the wheels through the M6.
He also has a Carbon Creationz spoiler and rear difuser, Radio Flyer flush headlights (Just Say NO to Frog Eyes!) and HID fog lamps, Cray Scorpion wheels, and NITTO NT05 tires.
As of today, he's in the hospital for a heart transplant.
We're dumping the LS1 for an LS3 with ported heads, a lumpy cam, an LS7 clutch and master cylinder, and an A&A Supercharger kit with all the corresponding fuel system upgrades.
The goal is 700 RWHP.
Just as an addendum, if anybody wants a set of OEM wagon wheels, complete, I'd be glad to get them out of my garage. They're in excellent shape, and the fronts still have about 75% tread.
Other than cars, I'm an ER nurse and into reading, Jeeping, martial arts, SCUBA diving, shooting, and gaming.
