Wow, you got to work with Saleen... that's got to be a great place to work!

Mine made 403rwhp on 6psi (everything else on the car was bone stock). Not too shabby for 6psi! Once the Saleen powertrain warranty is up, that number is going to rise considerably, especially now that I have my HHR SS as a daily driver

 

I didn't work at Saleen but we dynoed most of there cars for power testing. I worked at Magnaflow Exhaust as the Development Coordinator and Dyno Operator for a couple years.I was very fortunate to be able to play with some of the toys that came in the shop

They really upped there program in 05 when the new body style came out. The previous generation were terds but the current cars with blowers are underrated. Dynoed a couple S7's and I would be beyond pissed if I owned one of the non turbo cars based on the power they made

 

MR2 Spyder (Daily Driver):



GTO LS2 6sp (sold)



Evo (Traded for GTO)



Celica GTS (Traded for Evo)




Many more previously (before I had a digital camera:)

 

Didn't any of you folks have kids???? All my previous vehicles were Suburbans, hauling kids around. hahaha

Look below

 

No hot rods or cool cars in the digital age just snowmobiles. The Blue 2002 Yamaha Viper had a 700 cc triple 2 stroke mill that made 120 hp and was good for 0 - 60 in under 5.0 seconds and a top speed of over 115 mph. The Black 2007 Yamaha Rage GT is not quite as fast but rides and handles much better than the Viper. The Rage has a 1,000 cc 4 stroke mill that also makes 120 hp and gets much better fuel economy.

My real hot rod, 1935 Ford Tudor sedan, Fatman frame, Mustang II, four-wheel disc brakes, 9" rear hung on a four-bar setup with 3.70 gears and a Tru-track. It has a 2000 LS1 with a few ZO6 goodies in it but I have an LQ9 (6.0L) on the engine stand getting a 4" stroker crank, L92 heads and some other go fast stuff. It took five years to get it from the junk pile to a "driver".

My wife's ride SHE built. It's a 23 body on 30 "A" rails, 8BA flathead in front of a Borg-Warner T-5 turning an 8" Ford rear. It's Z'd 6" in front, 7" in the rear. This thing was built with "spare parts" from under the bench, from out of the shed and a few pieces that fellow local rodders "donated". All the fabrication and welding was done by the wife, she is quite proud of it and drives the wheels off it.

 

Well this will be our first post,my wife and I bought a BFM SS 5speed and are just waiting for it to show up around the 15th of July as a dealer transfer. We are fairly excited to get it as I have already made a 3 bar grille,just waiting for the SS to show up to do final fitment before paint,gonna do the arm rest mods and plan on adding some performance goodies before winter. This forum helped alot with our decisions so keep up the good work. So now for the picks of previos rides and current projects.

This is my current daily driver,1988 fuel injection 700r4



This my LS1 swap pro touring project,actually in pieces,but this pic is before teardown.



Built this in a month,then my sister wanted it so I sold it to her



This is my wife's daily driver that we are replacing it with The SS



This is a bad picture of my drag strip s-10 being upgraded this year.



I sold this,restored it from a right off accident,very fun to auto cross with



And the only picture I have online as a teaser for another forum with my 97 Chevy 2500 that is my fifthwheel camper hauler,my 96 s-10 in the garage being worked on and my wife's 1992 LT-1 6 speed red Corvette.



That is the end of my first post,and by the end of next week I hope to post pics of the SS sporting the new grille. From Regina,Saskatchewan,Canada that is all and have a good weekend.

 

My 2000 Trans Am Firehawk (another SLP car) while I still have her. Looks like she might go up for sale soon. She's got 31K on her now.



Caught my wife looking at the Stang vert in this pic. I still bust her chops about it!
