Welcome back!
Most new owners are only happy halfassing <(no that's not a word but it should be) stuff which many of us here don't have time to deal with! I used to be on the FB pages but dumped all but the classifieds and GXP page. It's a bunch of idiots unwilling to search for the answer themselves before asking. It was the same BS questions on an hourly basis, and then there were the internet hero's mouthing off and starting B.S.
Congrats on the new ride!

Mods include but aren't limited to: Texas Speed 418 (6.8L) fully forged held together with ARP from top to bottom, PRC 255cc heads, Rick Crawford intake plenum, TB port, polish and tune, Roto-Fab 102mm CAI w/LS7 MAF, Kooks 1-7/8" headers wrapped with DEI, Corsa catless system, Circle D 3200 Stall, 3.45 final drive, BMR's complete street bushing kit and sway bars, Eibach Pro Kit, G-Force Axles, running on staggered VMR 710's with Bridgestone RE11 rubber. HSV triple gauge pack with Calais smokers kit mod, V6 tails, debadge/rebadge, V6 door handles, AU black door trim, Maverick Man under hood strut covers, & washer and bolt kit, fully corrected paint thanks to Adams Polishes and my hard work.
