hey everyone just signed up here because ive been reading in the forums and it looks like there is a blank ton of good info on this site. i just recently bought a 99 white ss from a buddy i used to work with that has 67xxx miles on it. its completely stock and yes it has the wu8 code on the door one of the first things i checked, so i was pretty stoked when he finally agreed to sell it. future plans for this car is forced induction, comming from an import world with an sti that had lots of power to an n/a muscle car is quite a difference. i love turbo but never felt how a sc works so i have some research to do. if anyone has any links to any threads that would make my search quick by all means share em but thanx for lookin guys

Welcome! Off subject but I have a friend that recently bought an STI. Those lil thangs are quick. First time I ever been in a turbo anything. Did you sell that to get your SS?

Besides all that, good luck with your build.

Welcome aboard and have fun with that SS

unfortunately no i didnt sell the sti to get the ss, a chick pulled out in front of me and it got totalled. go figure stuff like that happens when ur not even playin around in it. but yea they are really quick for stock 4 cyl and with a few bolt ons like bigger turbo, tb exhaust, uppipe, equal length headers, injectors and an intake they can have around 350-400 wheel horsepower so dont be fooled if u pull up to one, usually if he wants to race, hes got something extra. but i was thinkin a turbo over a supercharger for this one, have a shop here that built a custom kit for a red ls1 around here that made 500whp and 500 plus wtq on a stock motor, but ive been reading the stickies and ive got some suspension work before i can add that kind of horsepower. but ill take pics later today and try to have them on my profile, its a pretty lil dirty car. i been havin some fun in it

Sorry to hear that about your sti. Hopefully her insurance bought your SS. Ive thought long and hard about turbos and s/c's but i wanna keep it all motor. Just a personal preference.
