chevy has had my car since monday night, i've got a silverado from them right now. they think they may warranty it cuz they now think it's a blown head gasket with only 1100 miles on it and i didn't even hit boost til just shy of 1k miles so it's not like i did somethin to it. the problem is friendly doesn't wanna cover it cuz they said i didn't buy the part from them so even though they told me to go to ced for it and it's a gm part since it didn't come from them they don't wanna pay for it but the guys i talk to there put up a fight and at least now they're callin the warranty officer to cover it hopefully

wells fargo lost my first month's payment and are tryin to rape me with late fees and make me pay the last month again. if this touches my credit i'm gonna tweek. i've got perfect credit history

until everything gets sorted out though everything else is on hold...

well ya your hp rating is so low until you mod. wasnt it 205 stock, 220 or so stage 2? get near 300 and he shouldnt be an issue. But na fast and fi fast are totally different feeling.

Ya that should be a nice bump in power. You may want to get tuned after though.

if installed properly (filter rotated to the right spot) it seems to be the best one out there for the lnf with out a tune.

I'm still going to wait for the vram intake, but I've almost bought the k&n when I was drunk a few times.

I've got a lot going on at home...when I'm not at home, I'm working one of two jobs or on dates....that's right...I've dated a few girls already...I'm a pimp...j/k...lol...I met a few girls, got some numbers...I've been talking to one a lot lately and she's amazing. I have met her a couple times this weekend already and we have been hitting it off really well. I'm not looking to jump into anything, but when a hot 21-year-old likes me, I can't resist...have a dinner and a movie date with her Tuesday. Nothing fancy, but she doesn't seem to be very high maintenance so yeah. Boston's for 7:30 dinner and then Robin Hood at 10:10...a little time in between to do whatever (funny as it may sound, I'm not trying to get in her pants yet..I want to have fun and not get too serious just yet...but the more I talk to her and see her, it's tough).

Oh, and P, the advice about not looking for girls, let them come to you...it works pretty well..I've learned a few tricks that work well...just make contact with them (don't start a conversation, just say hi, how's it going and make sure they know where you're at as far as sitting in a bar or whatever...so they can find you), but leave them in suspense and they'll come to you if they're interested...that seems to work the best.

OK, so I filled it out even though I won't be attending and I left a note that I won't be attending, but want one anyway, I'm willing to pay for it as well.

Its a custom exhaust...

I've had the pacesetter header for awhile.
went 3" header back, with a 3" magnaflow cat, 3" straight through resonator and a 3" vibrant muffler. Its exactly the sound i wanted, can't hear cruising, it is not raspy at all, and it has a violent sound when your on the gas (maybe a little loud WOT)
Got header back done for cheaper than a magnaflow cat-back

E85 will be coming soon enough. Need more work in the garage before I can justify spending more money on the car without a job. Right now I'm booked through Thursday.
