That explains your user ID then (possibly)...

I've only had my TA for a few months so there's a good chance that it needs new plugs, fuel filter, and O2 sensors...that could very well be the diff in mine.

I just noticed you're in Akron, OH...I don't know where you're planning on getting your car tuned, but there's a LT1/LS1 whiz in Ashland, KY...there are plenty of guys that drive from the Louisville/Lexington, KY areas to have him tune their cars...probaby a 2-3 hour drive for them, but you're probably lookin at 4 hours or so.

Check out www.kyhorsepower.com and ask around...his user id there is bluecat. 606 571 6334 or philliphsmith@windstream.net...you will not be disappointed...tell him silver97z from kyhorsepower sent you...
