A little about me. I live in Sunny Sebring Florida, though I do spend a lot of time in Tampa, Florida for work.
Hey sirmeili, I've responded to a couple of your posts, but only just noticed your location!  My wife's parents live in Avon Park and we'll be down there for a couple of weeks from the day before Christmas, though the last week we'll be in Disney.  Maybe we can hook up and I can give you some more mod tips (though by that time, you'll probably be past needing any help!)

Those are actually 'Turbo' insignias. I thought since the car was a turbo that it was added at the factory, but after seeing so many pictures of Solstices lately, I think the previous owner added them. There is also one next to the 'Pontiac' on the back. The side ones will go away when I get some of Norm's Fenders, the one on the back I'm not sure about yet.
Thanks for the feedback!

That is awesome TS. I think I'll take you up on that. I'm taking the week between xmas and new years off, so I'll definitely be in town that first week you're here. I'm not sure about how many mods I'll have done by then as I have some other things I should do first (money wise). Then again, I shouldn't have bought a second car, but did that anyways....LOL. It'll be nice to have someone show me exactly what has been done to the car already (if anything), and to just bs about our cars :)

The highest I've noticed it hit is 16. I think this means it definitely doesn't have a tune on it as I've ready some who hit in the 20s regularly.
