Well this is my 2000 Saturn Sc2. This car is the third sc that I've owned and it is by far the fastest, in a straight line and around corners, and best looking. I bought the car on my 19th birthday as I wanted to go from a SOHC Sc1 to a DOHC Sc2, as I've owned two Sc1's in the past. I found this car with just over 39000 miles on it back in 2005. It now has amassed a tick over 80000 miles, as I love to drive it and it was my only car for about a year and a half.

I have ran the car on the quarter mile and have got it to run a 16.204 at 84.67 mph. Since this run I have installed an Apexi SAFC, a header, a high flow cat, new struts, a 54mm throttle body, and a custom supercharger kit. I'm using a vortec V-1 supercharger as it has a very good compressor map for my engine(only the V-5 is better). I'm pushing bewteen 7and 9psi, depending on how cold it gets. I now have ls1 injectors in the car, and am running a lot better and I have raced a 2001 mustang gt with an intake and we where dead even from 0-105mph. I was pulling on him once I hit 4th because he got me on the launch. I should be in the low 14 second range since the gt has never lost to another stock gt, has bet them all by 2-3 car lengths.

Here are some pics that I hope you all will enjoy and don't forget to rate me.

Well I put it away for the winter with the realization that the safc that I was using is a little to dumb to run with an obd2 computer.  If i didn't have just the right amount of fuel taken out the ecu would take out some.  so every time i got below 11.5:1 afr, the ecu would lean it out to a 13.0:1 afr.  Which happened alot around like 3500rpm or lower.  So next year, after i rebuild the supercharger, it died coming back from a trip to TN to drive on the dragon, I will buy an extra fuel injector controler from 034 motorsport and use 2 of my 42lbs injectors that I got with my sc in the intake tube.  Once I get that installed, I will tune it to a 12.0:1 afr so my ecu shouldn't mess with anything.  But if it does, I will go pull a obd1 ecu from a junkyard and install it in my car(probably pull the motor it came off of to build for when this one blows on me).  Then, as long as I still have any money, I will buy all new brake parts, pads, rotors, lines, fluid; and possible new, wider rims and new, wider tires, hoping for 17x8's and somewhere between a 225/40 and a 245/40 for size.  Oh and I will buy all new intercoler tubing, this time I will get aluminum.  So, until next year she sits.
