Just did the 6-speed swap (T56 Magnum XL), have a few things to iron out, also just did the JBA Shorty headers, gotta get the tune updated now. May be forging the internals later this summer.

And that whole vampire thing in the winter?

2011+ model PCM's are LOCKED down pretty much

I don't mind because the 5.7 has so much torque down low that driving around town, it's very easy to get around.

It sucks because I REALLY want a supercharger! I can, but it'll be $10k plus a full PCM/wiring harness swap (PITA!)

no pics unfortunately of those giant snow mountains lol Funny thing is, that's all that's left of the snow now even though we had a mini blizzard the other day!

Any plans with the M90 this summer???

This past winter was just storage, but come December we'll be installing a built motor, custom twin turbo, suspension, wheels, tires etc. Will be a three month project and next March will roll out a completely new beast.

Damn.. now thats what I call a serious project! I was close to going the same route, but I'd NEVER be able to drive it except for summer lol

I can't believe I drove it for four winters myself!

Speaking of driver mod.. I need to get the AWD launch down, especially with 400lbs./trq (crank) Getting a high stall torque converter soon, shooting for very low 13's@105mph.. pretty good for a 4500lbs. car!
