Hello all. Just bought a White Pearl Tri-coat Metallic 2002 LSV8 Sport. 36,000 miles. 20K. No previous issues or problems with the car. I absolutely love it. Drive as much as I can. Only getting 16 MPG but I'll live with it for now. I actually find myself standing on the front porch (avoiding the snow, I live in Boston) staring at this thing under the street lights at night. It's f-ing beautiful.
Probably not going to do much in the way of mods. I might put on the cone at the intake. I had a VW GTI VR6 that I put one in and used to make people's head snap with the growl when you hit the gas. Great sound, although probably negligible HP gain. A few questions though:
1. Is there a cone/heat shield package available yet? If not, am I going to lose that much HP without the heatshield?
2. What does everyone use to protect/clean the interior leather/vinyl/wood?
3. What do you all do for work? A few of you have so much knowledge, it's hard to imagine that you don't work in the auto industry. I just don't have the time to learn everything that I have read on this web page.
Great web page by the way, I've been pretty unproductive at work the last week reading the 38+ pages of forum.
Waiting for the warm weather...
