Default Hi from Auburn AL.

I spent most of yesterday poking around and found tons of very useful info. Great content here. I'm looking forward to learning more.

Welcome to here. If you haven't checked out the DIY FAQ thread that is sticky'd in one of the engine sections it is a good place to start.

Tell us about your car and show us pics please.

I was in Auburn a couple weeks ago. I ate at Moe's BBQ like three times in two days. It's amazing. Are you amazing?

Ok, Will do.
My car is a 2000 LS Sunlight Silver. I bought it with 39k in 2007 and it is my DD. 108K miles now and runs better than when I got it. Two years ago I moved to a flat part of Alabama. Bored with the lack of mountain curves, I applied a Moss M45 kit. The car has the FM Stage2 suspension package, and a few other odds and ends. My Moss kit is a Carb unit, and I am currently researching adding an AEM FIC/6 and M/W injection to enable me to get a little more boost. I am an occasional Autox participant near Birmingham, but the SC puts me in SSM where I'd really have to change the car too much to make it competitive. I enjoy the runs though, and the folks are a great bunch.

I'll read up on posting Pics and will add some this evening or tomorrow. There are ghouls about tonight!

Thanks for the welcome...

Pusha...Amazing? I don't know. I remember my Dad used to shake is head a lot as he walked away back when I was younger.

Auburn is a great place to live, and the eats are pretty good for a college town. You found one of the best I see. Good find for you!

I'm a card-carrying member of the War Eagle Supper Club. I also got a ******* from some random Pi Phi on their drunk bus.

How's that for seeing the town?

Thanks for the pic. Needs more Hard Dog roll bar, haha!

BTW, we keep pusha around because he's so classy. His father is a state house representative.

I was in town for the "game." I had pretty decent seats.
