I picked this car up in Sept of 08 for $3000  Best ET  13.90 102mph Before Headers, Off Road DP and TDCRacing FWI and Tune. However my best after the headers & FWI is a 13.6@104mph WEIRD I'm Stumped. I think I have the slowest cam'd 3.0 GTP know to man. The 2.2 60ft times don't help.

UPDATE:  After owning this car for just over a year and doing a head gasket & header install my friends & I failed to see that the Boost bypass valve was capped off.  So for the past year I have been driving around and racing at the track with half the boost the car puts out.

Below is my engine bay after adding a little red paint.  I plan on painting the front motor mounts and dogbones red as well when I install the new front POLY motor mounts.  Then to the right pic is my pretty much stock interior except for the Boost & Volt guages hidden down in the cubby by the gear shift console.

Here are a couple interior pics. I really like the Boost & Volt gauges hidden down in the console rather than up in a pillar gauge pod. IT STEALTHY.  I plan on adding a few carbon fiber accents but dont want to go overboard and have it everywhere. I'm also considering using some leather dye to dye the inner buckets of the seats and headrest red. (IF YOU CHECKOUT MY TRANS AM CARDOMAIN PAGE YOU SEE WHAT I MEAN.) I did it to my 99' Trans AM over 5 years ago and its holding up very well.

I painted my calipers silver & black and threw on some zinc coated Drilled & Slotted rotors.  Most people say these rotors are just an appearance mod however my brakes used to fade badly when trying slow down in the shut down lane after a 1/4 mile run. Now they don't one bit.
