A few things in one..please read
Hey guys
i wanted to catch everyone up to speed on my vette and the latest and i hope you guys will get back to me.....to begin with i think my vette is cursed......when i bought the car i found a little black scarf in the console it was sorta neat i knew it was the past owners wifes scarf...not to mention she was gorgeous...well i keep the scarf in my car just for kicks..maybe good luck who knows..well after owning this car for a few months im begining to wonder if my car is CURSED!
every single time i turn around something is wrong or happens!!! since i cant even begin to list all the stuff ive had to do....and just today my neighbor backed into it
$1100 damage...luckily my father is a professional car restorationist..what do you guys think? are there any car Excorsists out there? lol i hope you guys dont think im silly its just driving me nuts!!
2nd.. i put cat back Magnaflow exhaust on it and absolutely LOVE IT! so if anyone is considering it message me and ill give you a link to a video I have!
3rd.. Im not sure if you guys remember back when i had the run in with the GTO but now i have a few mods and wondering if you guys think i should go for it again or not...
i now have
* Magnaflow cat back
*K&N filter W/Cutlid
*fresh tune up
*Royal purple (not that it would help any)
*Adjusted throttle cable (at WOT it was only opening 85% now its 99%)
*new tires
*ive also now learned how to "drive" my auto
the GTO has
*CAI
*tune
M6 trans
soon to get full exhaust
Now this guy and i have a very big rivalry...i dont run my car hard to often simply because i dont like to and i dont like to pay tickets but the car feels strong i just dont want to see this guy put a hurtin on me again...thanks guys and happy vetting!!!
P.S. it was kinda a good thing getting backed into now my front bumper and hood will have fresh matching paint on them....the bumper was showing some wear!have a good one guys and enjoy the beautiful weather!!!!!!!!

What year is the GTO? Is it a manual or auto? Can the owner drive it or not?
If it is a 2004, then 0-60 is around 5.4. The LS2 GTOs were around 4.7.
Your Vette should run between 5.2-5.5 seconds 0-60 depending on your transmission and skill.

666
Just kidding. When he said his Vette was cursed and you posted something about codes- I couldn't help myself- was too good to pass up.
That stinks having a neighbor hit your Vette, Towu4free. I've heard good fences make good neighbors- in this case, good insurance may make a good neighbor too. Hope that "State Farm is there" or whatever he has.1982 Dark Blue Corvette
