Hello from central Illinois

Hey all,
I have been on the forums for a bit now and I figured I would introduce myself. I am a very proud owner of a 2010 Camaro LS A6. I acquired this guy a bit ago and have been slowly becoming more obsessed. I will go ahead and list my mods for you, and would love your guy's opinions, suggestions, and ideas! I will have to post an exhaust vid when I have a chance because I love how it turned out. So here goes, I started with Doug Thorley headers, high flow cats, full magnaflow exhaust with x-pipe, Aeroturbine resonators, Magnaflow tips, and I have an Injen CAI as well. I have not had a chance to tune.(any suggestions would be nice for the tune) I also went with 20 inch boss chrome rims. They turn heads but I am not sure if they are still what I wanted. Buyers remorse I guess. The gentleman before me had put on a black matte striping kit and lowered the front as well. So I really was presented with a clean slate. Before this car I was always on bikes, my latest was a 2008 honda cbr 1000rr. The cars all paid for and I would really like to go all out performance wise. After all the bolt ons are on, as I still have a decent amount left to do, I would love to look into a e85 conversion. And eventually FI.
Thanks for taking the time to read!

CONGRATS on your ride and Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, dad's, wives', husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's here don't care....and take it easy.

oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!

South side of Chicago for me. So I'm a little closer.

WELCOME!!! LOOKS GOOD!!

That is a clean looking ride.

White on black looks good and those wheels along with the drop look sweet. Can't wait to see what route you take with this car.
