Thank you for the Welcome, Happy to be here.
« on: April 21, 2009, 10:56:59 AM »
Hello everyone,
My name is John Gallegos, Rx4theSol on the Pontiac Solstice Forum.  I am a pharmacist in Las Cruces New Mexico hence some of the reason for my user name.  I own a 2006 Aggressive Pontiac Solstice with more than several mods.  The most impressive to me are the DDMWorks Stage II Supercharger (soon to be stage III by the end of the month), DDMWorks long tube headers and high flo cat, Magnaflo dual outlet muffler and tips.  I like the way the Gravanna J2 staggered wheels and Goodyear F1 tires make my car sit.  I have a custom hood scoop and side fender vents that I had a local body shop make for me.  They seem to really compliment the style of the car.  The white on red racing strips complete my set up.
Thank you for all the great information on everything I have done and want to do to my car.   :urock:

Welcome to the forum Rx4theSol.  Las Cruces, New Mexico, I know it well.  We used to have Financial Aid Meetings there on a regular basis for all the Community Colleges in the great state of Arizona.  I will always have a soft spot for Las Cruces, New Mexico.

Well, on with the post...lets see, Mods, let me be sure of them.  You listed the following:

DDMWorks Stage II Supercharger
DDMWorks long tube headers and high flo cat
Magnaflo dual outlet muffler & tips
Gravanna J2 staggered wheels and Goodyear F1 tires
Custom Hood Scoop
Side fender vents
white on red racing stripes

I believe that sums up your mods.  May I ask what else you plan to do to your pride and joy.  I do admire what you have accomplished already.  Sounds like you have plans for the future as well.  Can't wait to see what is next on the list.

Again, thanks for becoming a part of Kappa Performance.com.  Great bunch of guys and gals here who have opinions on everything.  Make yourself right at home.  Enjoy your ride.  Again, thanks for joining us.

John,

I hope to be through Las Cruces in July. Perhaps we can meet and share a meal. I _do_ want to see your car in person.  :thumbs:

That would be great.  Let me know when you might be coming thru and I will make sure I am off shift from the hospital.  It will be nice to finally meet you in person.
