Default There goes the neighborhood...newbie...

What's up. Moving down to FL with my wife this spring. She already did her intro thread...

I drive an 06 Cobalt SS/SC. Took the S/C off and turbo'd the car. Running a 3071 (.63ar) right now with Darton Sleeves and Diamond Pistons. Just put the motor back in before Christmas so it's a work in progress. Tuning is on hold while I'm trouble-shooting a coolant system issue. Got a leak and need to find it...

Anywho, we should be down to the area by April so I'm sure we'll end up meeting some of you eventually.

Yep, 18X8 Ultras, love em'. Freaking car came w/ 5X110 so I didn't have many options. W/O going CCW's, these are as light as they come in 8" wide wheels. They're not really liking the snow right now, but it's just temp till we get to FL...

Oh, and thanks!

We're moving to Bradenton to start, from there, who knows. We're definitely looking to stay in the Bradenton/Sarasota region...
