Hey everyone,

Most will recognize my screen name from the 10000 other boards I post on. I found out about this place and been meaning to join, just never got the chance. Anywho for those that don't know me the names Joe, and I own a 2000 Monte Carlo SS and a 2005 GTO. (pics below). I look forward to postwhoring up this board as much as I do all the others I'm on lol...

Some pics









Joe

Thanks Everyone, glad to see some familar faces, And Solaro Slayer I Don't think I'll be passing his post count anytime soon..lol...

Let's see which one do I like better? Most "Normal" people would probably say the GTO right off the bat...it sure is fast, and the interior is real nice...but everyone knows the Monte's my Baby...

As for the GTO's numbers I never ran it down an official track, but from what I hear stock it runs low 13's and I'm not stock.

Mods for both (those I can remember)

Monte Exterior
Razzi Ground effects
Headlight Covers
MPD Ram Air Hood
35% Tints

Interior
De Speedo Guages
Monte Carlo light bar
Dale Earnhardt Head Rests
Red HVAC lights

Stereo
Alpine DVD/Navigation System
Infinity Speakers
2 10" JLAudio W6V2 Subs
Rockford Fosgate

Suspension/Handling/Brakes
Baer rotors
Rear Sway Bar
Micheling Pilot Sport A/S Tires

Performance
Borla Exhaust
Thrasher Intake
180 Degree T-Stat
Rebuilt Tranny Upgraded to handle 500HP by Dynotech
Reprogrammed PCM


GTO
Exterior
Pontiac SAP Front Extension and Grills
GTO Rear reflective lettering
35% Tints
Klearz Front clear parking lights
Ruff Racing R280's Rims in Black

Interior
JHP Sport Gauges in Center Console

Suspension/Handling/Brakes
DBA Rotors
BMR Strut Tower Bar
Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Tires

Performance
K&N Intake
160 Tstat
Kooks Headers
Borla Exhaust
Predator Programmer/reprogrammed PCM

I think that's about it, future mods include

Planning on doing either Cartuning or ZZP's Turbo kit Very soon for the monte
And later on in the year, perhaps suspension work or some exterior mods for the GTO

Thanks again,
Joe

Joe, welcome to the MCF. GORGEOUS Monte, The Goat is nice too, just not a fan of them, nothing personal. (I know, they got a V8!) I just bought a new Pontiac for my wife for Christmas, a 4 banger! SWORE I'd NEVER buy another one! This one's different (like us)! She's an '07 Solstice GXP, red, and her name is Lucy. She's been kicked up a notch to 350hp. At 2,800 lbs, WOW! (Good start!)
Point is, glad GM is still making cars that still can kick some SERIOUS Fo_d bu_t! Now let's see a RWD Monte from the General! But I STILL want a BIG BLOCK! The 4 banger's fast, but there's nothing like that earth shaking torque of cubic inches! Maybe a 572 SS? NOW we're talkin'! I want mine in BLUE!
