  1. You got that right. He should be voted in as a mod on here imo.
  2. Bitchen. I really had a distaste for those wheels, but you brought it together nicely. Thing looks titties. And with the JL w7s that thing is going to be a concert on wheels. What size w7s? Edit- Check out this truck, would be perfect for you with the bikes, and the system would just blow car windows out (pay attention to the tractor trailer toward the end)
  3. you got the inside info! Who told you the big secret?
  4. Ive seen it on rt 9 near Framingham numerous times, he was heading west while I was heading east. Funny thing was, another SS was about 10 seconds behind it (it was black) and seemed like he was trying to catch up to the VR SS.
  5. And another good example of why the f/s section needs to be changed/monitored.
  6. He should just surrender his truck to you in case you need any spare parts, although you are heavily modded Thats what my SS is for (check out my sig)! Ive said it before on a thread, I was going 85 in a 65 left lane hauling the mayo and looked in my rearview only to see a statey on my a$$. Well I started to move over to the middle lane the next thing I know the statey steps on his gas, gives me a wave, and then floored it hauling down the Interstate. Now thats one cool cop Those spinners must add what, 50hp?
  7. get some pics of your truck in the beautifal scenery up their!
  8. Just with basic bolt ons (cai, exhaust) the QC's run in the 14s 1/4 mile, IIRC I was speaking to a member about them. I plan on buying it just for driving the wifey and kids in the future. It takes serious $$$ to get the QC's running. My bad, the QC was in 10s The fastest
  9. Glad to see you back!!! My mother and grandmother were personal best friends with Julia Child, they would go to her house in Cambrdige,MA and cook a damn storm up. My mom also toured Italy with Mary Ann Esposito. I will ask her for some recipes for ya, anything certain you like? My mom wont even let me in her kitchen, it makes Emeralds kitchen look like Toys R Us. Edit - Hows the heated floors? And your garage doing? Edit #2 - I will try to get a recipe for lamb tips and kabobs or prime rib
  10. Was it a QC or RC Srt-10? The quad cabs arent that very fast cause their so heavy, however they do have one under 10 seconds in the 1/4 mile which is damn impressive. Nonetheless those Srt's are amazing trucks. I test drove a special edition Srt-10 few years back and plan in the future to have one along with the SS.
  11. True. I have never seen a set of emblems for sale so it might be hard to go back if you didnt like it. Im trying to find a way to paint my bowtie with real gold.
  12. I also have a great relationship with my dealership, they let me watch repairs and my fam has been going their for over 40 years. I would ask them to do the fuel filter and then test drive it. If that doesnt work, I would go with the cheaper of the 2: new fuel pump or tuned by Slowhawk. If the dealer says you have a good pump, I guess it might be the tune? Do you drive with a full tank of gas or do you try to keep the truck a little bit lighter and keep 1/2 tank to 1/4 tank of gas? Their was a thread about the fuel pumps shitting themselves because they would overheat (something like that) and fry themselves if the vehicle was ran on low amounts of gas in the tank continuously. Nelson locks his tunes correct? Just be carefull the dealership doesnt flash your PCM, I think even a locked tune can be flashed their was a thread about that awhile back.
  13. Definitley unique. Any idea of doing the ss emblems like that or maybe the bowtie?
  14. Its shouldnt take more than 15-20 minutes. I dropped my truck off at a dealership where one member here has worked on my truck longer than I have owned it. I just walked around the parking lot, saw a monte carlo SS and cobalt SS. Next thing I see is my truck parked outside waiting. Wish I could help ya with info on how to do it, I just know its not hard to do and quick.
  15. Im not great with this technical stuff, but I would go change that filter asap, or find out when it was last done. If it hasnt been changed in a long time, its possibly clogged, and I think that would mess with the fuel pump. Edit - Id personally go with a WIX fuel filter. The last one I did was AC Delco but changing to WIX.
  16. Awesome! So much better than the other picture where the photoshopping they did was piss poor. Glad to see your truck in the magazine again
  17. ^^^I definitley agree. Ive been mocking up something to remedy that situation with rain entering the engine.
  18. Has to be one of the most stupid drivers on the road. If you see any pavement, dont try to powerslide
  19. If you get the Volant, dont forget if its 95 out you will be sucking that hot air in through the ram air. Also the Volant is not a true concealed intake, their is an opening on the left side (faceing the passenger front wheel). My plan is to buy the ram air and connect it to the stock air box and add a conical oil free intake like the AEM. The GMPP is a true concealed intake, might want to check that one out, not sure if its an oiled filter or not though.
  20. Nice little touch up with painting the red bowtie on the steering wheel
  21. 10 years ago I was into having a "system" in a vehicle but just find it annoying now. Im happy with the stock system even though I blew out the passenger door speaker couple years ago, warranty . Our setup in 2001 that won a regional contest was PPI component speakers and 2 JL Audio W7's. 2 Batteries to power the system. Couldnt hear the vehicles horn.
  22. Whens the last time you changed your fuel filter? Dont think that would be a cause but just trying to dig out some more info to diagnose this.
  23. Dealership. I know someone on here has them, he mentioned their hard to find.
  24. I wonder if thats the world's most expensive car wreck..... If not its pretty close I would think.
  25. Im pretty sure 2BFast was joking about the tbs. The whistle he has is from forced induction.
