Thanks. They stopped making the SVT in '04. Mine's just a '07 hatch.

We've got the big "Lakefront Meet" coming up in a couple weeks over in New Orleans which should bring on quite a few highway runs as long as I can find someone/something that'll get on the side of me and not shake his head no the second I spool and blowoff at them. I mean... damn I just want to play to!

Boards I frequent come from car forums to video game forums to local forums from Texas to Florida actually. Moderator of the biggest DSM forum in the world (to my knowledge) over at DSMtuners which is got alot of great guys as well. Almost scooped me up another 2gAWD but damn Honda's sucked me back in.

I'm a moderator on a Mustang forum and owner/admin of a local board. I was actually offered by the owner of cb7tuner to be a section moderator but I turned it down to avoid turmoil of a all domestic owner moderator a Honda board on the count of possible bias. lol

I know what you mean about just wanting to play. A friend of mine (current Mustang GT owner but had an '08 Civic Si at the time) wanted to run me after a mutual friend told him I only had an intake, exhaust, and tune on an otherwise stock Focus (hustling SOB lol). The Focus looks stock and you couldn't tell it was turbo without seeing the intercooler head on. The mutual friend neglected to tell me he told him this and I raced and beat a bolt-on Talon Tsi in front of him. He didn't want to race anymore after that. If I'd known he was being hustled, I would've called him out first. lol Noone suspects a Focus to be boosted much less be a 12 second car. I've upset quite a few people who just didn't see it coming.

Yep,

Mine the intercooler is black and has a few rock chips in the front of it so it looks just like a radiator so I find it funny. My last talon ran 11.7 (best time) and regularly about 11.8-12.0 so it was pretty fun and nothing can beat an AWD launch at about 6,000 rpms... god I miss those days.

Now a days it's wrong wheel drive and me spinning like a mad man.

Thanks,
John

Can we race?, I'd love to embarass another SS/TC owner at the track.

how you talkin **** about these cars when almost anyone you will race is pretty much stock. unlike every other car in the world you dont have to put thousands to make these cars fast. and people have ran faster than 13.8 completely stock.

Cool story ?

At the same time there are modded ones that run in the 14's still, just like most bolt-on j-bodys run in the 15's.

I've never lost to a cobalt at the track, sorry other people run slower than my car?
