All I can stay is dont prepare yourself because if you post on any other board and include your signature All the V8 guys will laugh at you, well maybe not all of them but someone will catch your post.
Oh yea I am glad to see we have some new members that are starting out on their cars, We sometimes forget how fun it is to start all over again because we have been at it for so long.
Anyways Welcome to the board and before you start any modifications do a full tune up with High Performance compnents like Fuel Filter air filter, cap, rotor, plugs, wires... etc etc, and make sure you in good running order.
Sorry abou the first part, I was just ranting about repect LOL

Past Thirdgen:
86 Trans Am w/ built 355TPI with SLP goodies and too much other stuff to List. One sweet *** car, wish I would have had a good enough Job to pay insurance on three cars so I could keep it, but for a 89 Turbo Trans Am w/ Low miles, I think I made the right choice!

I hear that, to many 14 second John Force wanna be's thinking they know it all. Look at it this way, if they actually knew what they were talking about they would answer your questions instead of insulting people.

Kyle f, didnt you used to be one of those people

Yeah I was thinking the same thing , he may not even have a IROC . IROC what is your problem ? I mean do you not have a life or something . If everytime I signed on here to read post ,I also had the time to go to the tech/general board and find Irocs to make fun of or if they had a IROC board to make fun of IROCS I would think to myself ,ya know I have a little bit to much time on my hands........Wayne

Ok...I do own a V6 car. Its a 90 RS. I drive it in the winter and beat it like a rental car. Thats what I think they are good for.
Its slow, and I'd never even think of modding it.

My IROC is something you wanna-be's wish you could afford the insurance on.

Then again, you may have a V6 car by choice.
I'm still as to why you want to mod a V6 when there are hundreds of thousands of V8 cars out there that will go allt he much faster with similar mods??

Later guys. I won't be back, so save it.

@ss holes.
