Hey
Thought I'd introduce myself to the forum.  Been lurking around on various forums related to the SHO to get some ideas on performance upgrades.  I've got a 2015 non PP I picked up in December and have already installed an  MDesign cold air intake and a Livernois Tune.  will be upgrading in the next few weeks with a 160 degree  thermostat, plugs and 3 bar map sensor soon from Livernois.  And hopefully later this summer change out the downpipes and exhaust as well. 
On another note, I went to the World of Wheels this weekend with my son and step father and saw BPD1151's HK Media SHO.  I never expected it to be there, but was pleasantly surprised to see it and the owner Mike.  We had a nice conversation about his car and he gave me some great pointers.  Just wanted to say thanks to Mike.  We had a great time at the show.

Welcome to the community, Mike, glad to have you and your '15 SHO here!  Way cool that you ran into bpd at the WoW, looked like a great event to be at as well :)  Are you planning to take the SHO to the track?   Solid choices in mods.

I'm thinking about someday taking it to the track.  I'd like to get it all setup with the planned mods before taking it somewhere.  Quite honestly I've never been to a track as a participant so it'd be a first time for me.  Quite new to this, but my general love of cars and the fact I finally got one that can perform has my interest up big time.   I live in the Chicago area so any recommended tracks or strips to go to would be cool to know.

So far what little I've done to it has livened it up a lot with just the 93 octane tune.  I can only imagine what a few more upgrades will do to the beast.

Welcome!  Sharp lookn' SHO.

I hope to join the tuned club this summer.  Been super busy at work and making some time for the family, no time to for my car.   Want to start hitting the drag strip again, good times when I was in my 20's and lived in Vegas.

Plenty of EB owners in the Chi-town area, I am sure they can point to the best tracks nearby.  The record setting track of course is in MI in Milan (home to LME's customer appreciation day).  Are you planning to make it to the National SHO Convention?  It is in Chicago this year.

Thinking about it.  I was reading a few posts out there about the event.  Is there a formal registration?  I'd probably be game for the show in Elk Grove on Tuesday, and possibly the factory tour if that indeed happens.  Since I'm local I don't really need a hotel room, but understand there could be some registration costs to hold these events.

I don't think the registration form is finalized until the events are finalized.  You can keep track here:
