new member trying to find his way around

Post by crush »

Hi, my real name is Dustin I live in Texas near the town of Abilene. I got the name crush from a local motor cycle club I :beerchug: party with. My 2 passions in life (besides my 3 kids)are cars And bikes. That is what brings me here. I just got a 92 SSEi, good car low miles but the rear window was busted out and it sat in the weather for 4 or 5 years. Fixed that and replaced most of the enterer, now I need help on were to start my proformance upgrades. I am new to supercharged motors and could realy use some help!!! :???:

Welcome to the club. It's a fun ride.

I don't know of any books but if you do have questions feel free to ask on here. We are really good at knowing the answers and if not we research to find out.

I know what ya mean, their like the sand here you cann't hardly turn a corner that you don't see some. NO place quite like Texas. I've moved out of state twice, But just couldn't stay gone long. We got way of doing things here, :P our own style of food, and music, and then we do every bigger here (eccept the trees :P ).
