Hi All
I've been a lurker on these boards for a three or four months now and just wanted to say thanks to all
who post here. Reading all the messages helped me decide that what I wanted to buy. I enjoy this board
and will continue to read them to see what mods I'm gonna do.

Thanks.

I've been thinkng that I'll start with the Eibach pro springs and a panhard
bar. Then I want a CDC chin spoiler.
I would do a JLT CAI and tune but I'm not sure I want to use premium gas
again. I just got out of using it by not driving my other car anymore and I
don't want to go back if I don't have too.
I also want to do the sequential tail light kit soon.
3 yrs from now when the warranty is up I want to get the saleen supercharger
but thats a long way away.

Sounds like a good start. I too want a lightbar and lowering springs. I also want to go with full suspension set up as well as flowmasters, but I am not exactly sure. Have fun with the car man.[sm=burnout.gif]

Very nice car/picture. Just so you know, you can install the JLT CAI and do a tune that only requires 87 octane but makes it safe to use the CAI. Then when gas prices come down jump up to the 93 tune for more power.

how did you get it so soon?

Or did the dealer just locate what you wanted?

Congrats!
