Title: Newbie from Alexandria, VA
Post by: Sbouvia on October 25, 2014, 10:47:04 PM

Hello all,

My name is Scott and I am from Alexandria, VA. My wife and I purchased a 2013 non-pp SHO here in northern va (NOVA). It is tuxedo black exterior, black leather interior and black painted aluminum 20" wheels with the all weather michelins.

I will try to get some pictures up and will also add my YouTube page to my profile.

Feel free to PM me anytime if you live in the NOVA area.

This site and the people on it are great, I have been lurking for a while and there is so much information on a fairly new platform.

Thanks,

Scott

Welcome to the forum, Scott, glad you & your wife & your '13 SHO made it official :) Definitely quite a bit of info compiled here, thanks to the many contributions by our stalwart & intrepid membership. What plans do you have for your SHO? Looking forward to the pix and videos!

Well once the warranty is done I think I will be able to convince the wife to let me do some minor mods. I was thinking fatted down pipes, thermostat, livernois tune, and map sensor.

Oh and just because I love the sound of turbos I think blow of valve to atmosphere and CAI might be in order before warranty goes out.
Good thing 93 octane is getting cheaper.

We also put 3M paint protection film on our car for full front clip and full hood, it is probably the best purchase we have made for the car.

Welcome to the neighborhood Scott.

Great idea on getting the 3m on ASAP. Really wish we would've too.

Maybe my woman can talk your woman into tuning early, she loves it too. ;)

Keep us posted and shine her up good for some pics.

Is yours a PP model? Also what springs did you use to lower it? Any other modifications?

Yes pp model..springs are HR. Only other mode which actually doesn't help the car is a KN intake.
