Mines getting that CAI into a RAM AIR SYSTEM! I posted a pic of. I have to make the ducts though damn it. The cheapest I find find someone to make them for is like 35 a peice. I am just going to make a model of the massive 3.75x10 inch openings that reduce down to a 3 inch round. and no Lowes does not carry them nor can they get them. I have been there 4 times in past week asking. One guy I talked too wanted 80 per duct!. Thats highway robbery!. I am also having to buy a K&N round filter 3.75x10 inch and cut it in half so I cn have a filter. I am on my way out now to buy the sheet metal and paper for the model.

 

Everything in the sig...

jealous. i dont think she likes my new project sitting in the yard next to her, an 85 trans am w/5 speed and 9 bolt, soon to be 350 under the hood to replace the one that came with it. she's probably getting cylinder envy of the 350 i just yanked out on saturday, which is in front of the t/a. sorry guys, but im another defector

 

I am planning to get an SLP cold air induction package and a superchip. this should give me an estimate 35 more HP give or take a few. This will be after i get my xmas money of course. this should raise me to 190 hp. Talk to ya lata guyz.

Mine knows already ! And wasn't suppose to .She heard me talking to dad about what I was going to get her . I had her running and she started revving to around 5k I had to cut her off to calm her down ...Wayne

 

uhh mines getting some floormats that fit, some pedal covers to set em off, and some nice custom tweed doorpanels and console door. oh and if i get the time, im gonna redo the exhaust too.

 

mine just got a new clutch today

i put it in myself cuz when i had it done 7 monthes ago the dumb bastards put the throw-out bearing on wrong,

when i took down the tranny and bellhousing, out came the old bearing in about 100 different pieces and they were supposed to be a PROFESSIONAL tranny shop

oh well, i guess if you need something done right you gotta do it yourself
