Yeah, it is a tad slow but all sites have to have a starting point and I know from experience with forums that they will grow once thw ord gets out. :) Welcome!

Wow, pretty nice car. I have an '01 with a Magnusen SC kit (non-intercooler) and short tube headers, Borla exhaust. dynos at 465 at the rear wheels.

wow..sounds like you both have awesome cars!

I like it a lot. I doubt I could ever get rid of it -- not that it would be easy to sell so modified.

The downside of all the mods is that the car is a bit to special to drive day to day. Its not that it won't behave and is not comfortable. It has all the original air, power options, etc., and the engine will lug in traffic at less than 1500 RPM fine. But it is a bit loud and the tires are very noisy, and just mashing down on the throttle to quickly in 1st or 2nd will snap the tires lose (even though they are 345s)- at any RPM. Plus I have only one place that can work on it (the speed shop that did all the work - the car has never been back to the dealer) so I tend to minimize the miles on it.

Still, on a nice day like this weekend, we took it out for a couple of hours cruising and its just grand:rule the street.

By the way, Lorrin, before putting in the 427 I had the stock engine with the Magnusen kit, too. Single best performance bargain I evern had. Ran flawlessly as a daily driver and the kit added 110 HP at the rear wheels and gobs of low end torque, and it had the best supercharger whine at full throttle I've ever had.
