Where do I go to get the car logged... can anyone on here help me with that. i don;t know much about tuning and could really use some help. Thanks!
Where do you live? I am up in the North Hills off McKnight. I have all the software and stuff for logging + basic knowledge on tuning (I tune my own). So pm if your interested - I can try and help, as long as the weather is good I can meet up anytime after 6 during the weekday.

If you are going up to PRP tomorrow, we can meet up and ill show you what the Turbo XS looks/sounds like. Although, keep in mind that it would look TOTALLY different on yours

If I blow, I may have to have you drive, haha. On stock, the best I could muster for a 60ft was 1.9. I have a feeling that I should be able to do way better than that now. My 2-step is at 6200 or so...I don't like bouncing it that high so I usually just hold it up around 5800 or so and launch it from there. I haven't bogged yet (knock on wood). I'll see ya up there - gonna try to get my buddy with his stock cyclone gray GTO to come up as well. He's never ran it before and thinks its the fastest thing in the world...I think he'll be lucky if he breaks 13s mostly due to his inexperience.

That's behind the old golf store, which then became a Halloween store, which is now something else. Behind Westmoreland mall about 200 yards from Buffalo Wild Wings... at least that is my guess.

Jeff stopped me on my way home from work tonight and after catching up on college life I took some pics. Here they are:
