hey thanks Speeddemon and ULLLOSE for the info, I am going to put on an exhaust, intake, and I am going to lower it as soon as I find a shop that is good. I dont know how nor do I have the tools to do it myself. So maybe all that with either FI or Nos may help, I will look into porting as well again thanks guys.

looks like those wheels you put on your Lego Cars. Speaking of Legos...got Erica the Lego Star Wars game for Xbox....not an Xbox live game...so multiplayer has to be done on the same box.

We could always go get PG3....it should be cheap....but then again, we don't really need two racing games that will be trashed once Forza 2 comes out...so on secon thought....Maybe Battle for Midway...that one looks cool. I downloaded the demo, but haven't tried it yet. Looks alot like COD, with some more game play options....

How much more HP does NOS really give? I went on a drive with the San Diego 8's and the guy in front of me who had the AT as well and just a lower stance with no body roll was killing everyone else because his car handled better. I deffinatly want to lower mine but like I said when I talk to shops about it they only do the springs, I want shocks as well, I dont want my car to have any bounce to it when I run over an ant hill like you see some people have because they only did the springs and the stock shocks gave out. I also want the sway bars but they say they cannot find any for the 8. WTF I mean are they really just not looking?

Toca, you're smokin' crack. The Z06 can ANNIHILATE your puny Z any time, any place, any where. (given that the Z06 is trying)

To bad it lost 14 lbs of tq this year.

btw it lays down 6 more rwhp than 2006 with the new SAE #s.

Also as if it was not porky enough the 2007 weighs 150 lbs more than the 2005.
