Hey Guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself. Name is Jeff and I live in Fort Worth. Purchased a 07 base model, red. I was in a GTO and then drove a Titan for a bit, realized I wanted to go fast again!

I just took out the cats and will be doing a tune soon to get rid of the rear 02 readings. I also plan on lowering with stock bolts this weekend.

Any other suggestions are appreciated.

Thanks guys, I took care of the lowering today and it came out pretty nice. I a actually ended up taking the bolts completely out and shaved 1/3rd of the puck off. Looks great IMO.

I'm having a bit of trouble posting a pic. I see the insert image button but it's asking for a link. Can you not just attach directly from your PC?

You have to pay for a subscription to post pics. I learned that yesterday. The fee helps pay for the costs of the forum.

Yep, I spoke with Daniel. Simply Quick Racing is down the street from my buddy's shop. I am sure with that much HP, you have many more mods than I. Also appears you may have a little juice as well in the mix.

My car is a 408 with a 200 shot. 500 on motor and 711 on the bottle. Daniel does good work and has done pretty much everything on my car other than a few small things I have done myself. If you use a picture hosting site like photobucket and put a link into your thread you dont have pay to post pictures. At least thats how I do it.

You have a ton of options open to you. The sky is the limit.... Or should I say.. Your wallet is the limit
