Welcome, great intro. I have that same Alpine head unit in my Camaro

thanks man, great head unit ya? i like how you can increase the power to the sub amps, thats a total plus!

welcome, good intro. with the firebird, you would be suprised how quick you can get them with not a ton invested. I have a 96 3.8 bird with a cam, intake, exaust, converter and and 4.10 gears running 13's (which by the way, both the motor and tranny in the car will be for sale shortly)

Thanks Pontiacfreak142, the 3800 series is hands down a great motor. And as you’ve seen first hand there IS power to be made out of those motors. But I’m getting sick of getting hated on by our big V8 brothers.

Welcome...by the time you've stayed long enough your name will be Fbody4life lol

Haha this may end up being true. Seems like there are a lot of F-body guys here which is great! I might end up taking Habitual Sinner’s advise and go LSX!

What size turbo on the Eclipse?

mensan, I have a Turbonetics 50 trim T3-T4 hybrid turbo. It does the job. I could have gone a lot bigger with the engine mods I have done, but I didn’t want to wait any longer for spool time

Welcome, Joe. It sounds as though you're a real enthusiast--owning, working on, flipping cars. Lots of guys here into that and also many of us enjoy shooting and bikes.

 

I hope to see you at some of our track days and meets.

Doc, thanks for the warm welcome. I’m glad to hear that I’m not the only one moding in Columbus. I found this site a few months ago and was so excited when I did because hopefully now I’ll be about to see what everyone is doing with their cars. ( cruising the streets just hasn’t been yielding much, so maybe CR will!)

I’m planning on some of those track days doc! I’m hoping to make some new friends that share the same love for cars as I have.

Sounds like you'll fit in around here. I tried linking some of the photos from fquick in here, but my HTML skills suck.

Thanks LT1Rick, let me see what I can do. Maybe I’ll have better luck, fingers crossed!

One of the better Noob intro's I've seen in a long time. Welcome.

Hahaha! Thanks mallard, I saw some of my fellow noob intro’s and I wasn’t overly impressed with them. Seemed like none of them actually read the “before you post” thread.
