Good to hear! I need ya around a little while longer so I can post retarded newb questions to **** you off. I did read alot about the 5/16 MD spacer with thermal gasket... Copper vs non-copper... Came across quite a few of your posts too. I lol-ed alot at your pics.

also i would just get a K&N drop in filter, i love the growl of the open intake like a pop charger, but in reality the drop in makes more power in the 06 air box.

Darren @ intense motorsports can hook you up w/any and everything. He's a super cool guy on a peronal and business level. tell him i sent you if you decide to stop being a puss and start modding your car.

K&N drop in
MREV from tony at motordyne
resonated test pipes and foulers from darren @ intense

that will gain you the most for you money there while retaining driv/realiablity. everything else is a wast of money unless you go forced induction.

You could also do a rear end gear swap w/lsd and pick up great performance also, but its alot more $$$$$$

I know, giving you a hard time about the pissed off thing. ... I keep reading how since I have an auto the MREV 2 would not be worth the money for the amount of gain I would achieve. It seems that the 5/16 with thermal gasket is ideal. I'd want the copper for the rare 32 degree weather we see here. I don't feel like popping my hood for 8 seconds to dick with the valve. I'm a ***** remember?

Yes, finally stuff is starting to make sense on all this crap. I'm bout to go to bed but it seems I have my mod list down pack.

Yea, Adam this is my decision, though of course not final:
-5/16 MD spacer with copper thermal gasket
-FI's intimidator exhaust with HF cats custom centered (already talked to tony and set up a time to go up and see him in CA) w/ of course stillen bumper. I choose cats due to clients I drive around every once in awhile. I don't want that smell in my car and I doubt they do either.
-drop in K&N filter
-either UTEC or techno square. I have the money for either, just can't decide which is better. I need to do more reading. And David I know will give me a good deal on using his dyno. So I'll have some before and after numbers... Most of this will occur in March though.

God, as much as I'd like to do the rear end gear swap with a better LSD then the one on my 350 I never will. That 09 SS with sunroof, 6spd, and all the interior luxury features this current car offers, (IE: heated seats, ect) I believe that my savings is going to go towards that instead. But of course I'll wait a year after the release. We all know how first year models can be.

Adam, how long have you known Darren? I'm off to bed I'll be back on here at 7:55 tomorrow. Or, well.... today. lol
Night all.

Call tony at motordyne or even pm him and ask what he recommends, he will give you a straight up answer, btw tell him i sent you.

Ive known darren awhile also tell him i sent you!

There is no fawking way i would waste my money on a reflash/technosquare. utec/haltec/accessport/hks are all much better choices. thing is no one around here is good/or can tune any of them.

Steve, the week you were on vacationm I had the flu. I have the money in hand right now for your popcharger. I want it badly, but more importantly need it.... My only plans for the weekend are going to this party with Brad tomorrow night. We should catch up this weekend. Hell we all should before the weather turns to suck.

Great! Thanks Adam. Also, I didn't want to go UTEC, haltec, ect... cause it seems they don't take kindly to seasonal changes, altitude differences (if I were to go across country), ect... I assumed reflash was like stock where it compensates for season changes (IE change in outside temp) along with changes in altitude.? But I have done limited research on this. So not too true.

I figured someone would catch my funny Yea, Steve I'll take the drop in if you can't find anyone by next Friday. But I am pretty booked solid till that Friday. Sorry.
Flimsy, I'm not looking to get the popcharger. Seems the drop-ins from K&N do just as well, (from what I've read)... Now I may have missed some threads that the popcharger is a God sent... Dunno.
Steve, how many miles (roughly) would you say the K&N drop in had on it?
