Hahaha, yeah. I can imagine they weren't very happy.

It's something about typical 'Vette owners. There was a guy driving through town the other day with a ProCharger on his C6 and something broke on it, so PC told him to call us (it wasn't part of the PC kit that broke, just an associated item). So this dude calls us and talks to John, who refers him to the Dyno Edge, which can do a lot more about the issue he was having than we could. So we give him directions and he heads to the dyno. Well, after he gets there, he calls John back and starts bitching about who's going to pay for the repair?!?!? WTF? Like it's supposed to be comped or something.

Some people...

there you go man! pics look awesome! you gonna let me see that bad boy soon? i wanna check it out!

Not much to check out other than a bone stock '95 GT. It's a nice ass car though. I bought it a year ago with 27k on it. :hammer: Honestly I don't even have insurance on it right now. It's pretty boring to drive, I've put less than 3k miles on it since I bought it. I bought it more or less like all of these parts, just to sit there until I'm ready to use. It's just another piece of the combo.

HELLION, you probably missed my earlier post but did you guys sell a Hellraiser compound boost setup to a 21 y/o kid named Cody here in Richardson, Texas?? he claims 1200hp which i dont doubt but he also said he was like the 3rd person to have it equipped on his car including Hellions cars...

i was just curious. he drives an 03 white cobra i think.

Did he get the kit through Lonestar Performance? If so, the name sounds familiar. I know that LoneStar and Gearheads both have bought a couple of the twin kits. The name does sound familiar though.

disregard my PM, thanks for the info.

Yes im sure he got it from Lonestar because thats who tunes it. Archie is who tunes my car. Hes really the only guy I like at Lonestar, the other guys can just be pretty rude towards me sometimes. But they are good guys i guess.

but thats cool, i was just curious. I would go to travis at gearheads but its over an hour drive for me, may be worth it though.

Thanks for the info!

Nestromo- Were you still going to have those Tri-bars widened in the rear? I think that would look so cool.

Yes sir. :thumb:

RealityGT - The car is slow as piss and boring. Leaving it stock would be wasting a low mile car.

lol, modding it would also be wasting a low mile car, it depends how you look at it, from a collector pov or a modder's pov. i'd love to have 2 30k mile cars exactly the same, one to sit forever and one to mod forever lol

The T-top car I'm going to buy this weekend has 78k on it, factory five speed, grey interior, T-tops, and I'm gonna cut the hell out of it.

I can't afford 2 30k mile cars, and an AODE 2.73 GT is about as much fun as... well... I dunno. Something that isn't very much fun at all. Unless you are just dying to get your ass kicked by Hondas. :rollinglaugh: I never drive it because it is such a dissappointment to get in a sweet looking little Mustang GT just to fire it up and go for a drive and it has no balls. It had might aswell be a 3.8, and you can't tell me you wouldn't clap one of those out like a $2 whore.

Low mile fox cars are worth more than low mile SNs. I sold my '93 GT with 41k miles with no motor for $300 less than I bought my '95 for. Cutting up a low mile fox is definately more of a travesty. But from my point of view, I paid as much for it as I would have paid for an average '95 because I was in the right place at the right time and I waited for the right car. So it's gonna get the right setup. :thumb: But if a sweet little '95 GTS with no options and low miles comes along and I have a little change at the time, it will be parked next to it.
