New guy from Indiana

Post by 96ssei »

Im new to this site, I have been on the Beretta.net site and Camaroz28.com site for years. I currently have a 94 Pontiac Firebird Formula (very modded 12.64 1/4 mile on street tires and 24hwympg) and just bought a 96 SSEI needing intake gaskets, wanted a 01 or newer, but got a good deal on this. Well intake gaskets turned into mps, headers, full exhaust, cold air intake, ported supercharger housing and new coupler. The modding bug got me again. Future plans are 1.9 rockers, n* throttle body, ls6 maf. That will be all this car gets as I want to get a newer SSEI.

I drive through there on the way to one of my favorite Bonneville Salvage yards in Portland.

Glad to be getting more local members!
