Just before the loud pedal stomp, the guy was in the front seat. :rofl:

We assume, since you didn't mention color; it's black?

Welcome :welcome: Welcome.

BTW, where are you? :)

LOL....Me too...in fact the salesman kept encouraging me to punch it and run it through the gears. I was already sold on the car BEFORE I test drove it! :banana2:

well i just ordered a jlt intake...and id like to put 4.10s in it but i guess i need to buy that xcal2 piece to make the car run correctly with them....the gears are cheap and ill do them myself...but i dont have the green for the xcal right now so the gears will wait. i was thinking of a blower too but ive already got a big vortech on the lightning....i probably dont need another one....:rolleyes:

First off, there is no such thing as one supercharger being enough...Im sure the pack would agree. And about the xcal2 before or after your 4.10s, really it is up to you. If you have your car tuned before the gears, you will have to retune for the 4.10s, but if thats okay, then get the xcal2 asap....your car will be a whole other person with it and you will be glad you did....plus the xcal2 holds multiple tunes anyways.....keep us posted on your evolving MM and do post pics......
