I have Jon's old one - complete with a really nice exhaust tip.
You can have it, I would hust ask that if your exhaust tip is decent that I get it.

I may pony up for a new exhaust, but until that time I keep having my exhaust tips split...

I'm guessing he sold the supercharger that I tuned him for, and going back to stock.

nah. I'm too lazy to take it off haha. Unless someone here wants a TVS, in which case I would consider pulling it off and selling it.

Truthfully, I'm on the fence between adding the meth and pulleying down or just fixing it up enough to sell. I don't really miss it, but I have a garage again so I wouldn't mind having a little project to work on. But then when I want to sell it its going to be really hard to get rid of since thres not many people willing to buy a car that needs meth to run.

It would make it a lot easier to sell if you just put a less aggressive tune on it

I don't know anyone local with the F35 tools;
IIRC they require a ludicrous amount of pressure to R&R the gears...

good luck.
AFAIK no GM dealers even service these;
They are shipped to GM for rebuilding, and replacements are shipped to the dealer on an on-need basis.

I went through this in the fall of 2014.

my experience was about the same, except when my car was in, and the order was placed for a replacement transmission, I believe there were a couple parts on back order to build replacement transmissions;
I got put to the top of the list, so that the first transmission done was sent to my servicing dealer... but I was in a "snuze " for something like six weeks.

lately i've been just working, then going home to deal with the boy...

no complaints though

if not for necessary maintenance, i might say i have had no time to tinker on cars.

in some of my down time I've been playing NES games
