Welcome to the site. Lots of valuable information and resources around here. And some very helpful people as well.

first mod suggestion -

strip that dealership decal from the trunk.

Welcome to the forum.

What are you doing with a 3.6 pulley on that car already? Do you have KR sensors?

hey thanks guys, i bought the car in late winter lol so that was the only pic ive got from that time, and the 3.6 is kinda of astep for me since i dont have any mods exept a wizaire intake and 605's in it, i put hte plugs in it due to a miss fire i have at idle when its warm, still missfires now though lol, and the reason id like to go to a 3.6 is ive got a 3.6 mps and a 3.5 for it as well, now since its got low miles on it i dont really want to cause more harm to the engine since im seeing around 1.5 degrees of kr at about 3lbs of boost. lol and that is another story as well lol i bough the car and took it on a test drive, well the analog boost display in the car would only go to the 12 o clock postion at WOT, i thought that ment 5 or 6 lbs of boost, well i took it over to my buddies house to have him take the tune off board the car for my e85 converion this summer and he said lets do a scan on the car, so took it out and i put it down to the floor and he said that i was only seening about 1.2 lbs of boost, i was like wtfm8!?!?!!? he thouht it was the boost bypass selenoide, so took the car back to his house and tookt he cover off hte engine,, the sensor had been put on upside down and was holding the boost bypass valve shut at WOT, the previous owner must have put in metal intake gaskets, so after that now im seeing around 8.5 to 9.3 depending on the temp and what im doing. and awesomess did you ever fiqure out y ur zzp pcm 1.0 was causeing so much problems a few years back, im lookn at a zzp pcm now for the car and i seen her post and kinda backed away from the pcm now.

will post pics later since its raining out



and no those are not custom plates lol


my 02 ls high sport



plus got a 08 trailblazer ls and a 01 silverado z71
