I'm home now and I could add the pics on, I can't get the dyno results up since they're not saved as a .gif. I'll keep trying though.

I have had quite a few people interested but no one is serious.

I'm running into 2 problems...1. "I'm 16 and needs a cool car" and "Can I test drive it...my license and insurance...why do you need that?"

Literally these quotes were from last Sunday. I want to sell it but then I get the urge to do more mods, I've invested a lot of energy into this thing (like most of you do) and hate to see it go to guy who'll beat the piss out of it.

Oh well, I've got all the time in the world. It's lien free and running perfect...and it's summer. Maybe this fall I'll dump some $$$ into advertising it in papers.

Whats up with this $199 a month deal on Craigs List?

11K = $199/month through capital one auto finance. I have financed all of my cars through them, they allow older cars to get 48,60 and even 72 month loans. The TA is paid off with a clean title, but I thought I'd offer another way to pay for the car other than cash up front. The rates are pretty good too on all cars/motorcycles.

looks like they ran the car through 3 gears on the dyno? It consistently made 350, peaked at 427 because of the transmission shift.

350RWHP through an auto would be correct for essentially an "LS6" engine.

Speed inc pulled 336 out of it.

Yeah, good call. Speed Inc. did the dyno before the exhaust mods. I then took it to Borchardt's (after the mods) where they not only ran it through all 4 gears (170 mph???) but the tires kept breaking loose during the run. I was like WTF??? It goes to show the difference between a $400 dyno tune at Speed Inc. and a $100 dyno run at Borchardt's. Let's just say that was my last visit there.

I have the TA up for auction and some kid in NY is the high bidder, I'd rather sell the car locally to remove any issues. The price is low, the car is in great shape. If you ever considered an LS6 powered TA, here's your chance to get one locally. It ends tonight at 9pm.

I though Tommy helped you determine that your 427HP dyno graph was an error, yet you advertised that as the HP in the auction. Don't want to see you get in trouble for misrepresentation. ;)

Actually 427HP calculates to about 341RWHP (if you use the 80% calculation)in an auto so my Engine HP should be a bit higher than 427, but I have no solid proof of that. I do have the dyno's though. If someone is truly concerned they can take the car to Speed Inc. and re-dyno it there. I'm sure there will be only a slight difference in the power, and it may tip in my favor. Tom Izzo did a super job the first time and I regret not taking it back to him.

as much as you've been dicking around, you know you'll just keep it for a bit. won't hurt to keep it. You know the chances of finding something like what you got won't be all that great in the first place. besides with your mild setup you still have alot of power, and docility.
