Eh, mainly corrosion on the valve cover and blower, no dirt. Typical aluminum corrosion, looking to pull both of them off here soon, have an awesome color scheme thought up which is both subtle yet unique. Not really into making this show-worthy but I want it to be presentable.

You would get my vot for FCOTM if you didn't have f***ing GMS2 stuff on your car. Why spend all that money on suspension, then half ass power?

Car looks great! Not sure if this has been asked or not yet, for those G6 GXP wheels, were they a bolt on affair? Any rubbing?

I "half-assed" power as I wanted something reliable and efficient versus a stuttering car on 60's with heat-soak. You mad that I chose this myself? I'm a pulley and injector swap away from an upgrade. So a couple dollars and 20 mins + a new tune, I'm not stressing it.

Besides my power I do have came from my tune, not the "f***ing GMS2 stuff". The difference is there as I drove the car 2-weeks with the GM tune.

Never thought I'd have to defend my choices and get someone butt-hurt over them .

Idk, I've worked on enough stage 2 tunes to know it's garbage. But if you are sayinf people with the 60s are having "stuttering issues" then whoever is installing and tuning those 60s is a moron that should not be tuning cars. I ran them for over a year, even on the Harrop, and have installed and tuned them in MANY cars with no issues. Also with the heat soak, a $100 intercooler endtank will fix that. 2nd best investment you will ever make.

Clean car thoug man, but my vote has to go to someone else because this is about liking the whole car, not just parts of it.

I'm not saying my tuner of choice would have issues with tuning 60's, that's just the common complaint I hear none of which were tuned by Joe.

Like I said, I enjoy the car as-is, I've proved what I've wanted to with past cars. This car gets me to work, and I enjoy it as-is. If I want to go fast I get on two-wheels, not behind the dash of an economy car. Just personal opinion.
