Default New guy from Houston...

Hey, names Travis from the South side of Houston (Sugar Land). I noticed there were a ton of guys on SVTperformance with DFW locations so i mentioned something to Dirtyd88 and he lead me here. Reason being, my girlfriend was offered a first year teaching job in Dallas (midlothian more precisely) so we're doing the long distance thing. Every 2-3 weeks or so i find myself in Dallas though, so i figured itd be cool for me and my mustang sporting GF to come hang out some time.

My car: 2013 base white GT M6
Current mods: Barton shifter + bracket / BMR LCA's + brackets / Breyton engineering 19 x 9.5 +45 rims / gt500 rear spoiler. Only had the car a few weeks, but as i continue selling the parts from my previous car i plan to finish out my suspension and go for broke on a 500+ WHP all motor build with a CJ setup.

The girls car:
2014 base grey v6 A6 (an exciting bunch arent we...)
Current mods: Airraid CAI
Future mods: 3.55 gear with a tune. Just a little more pep, shes not interested in making it a race car.

my previous car: 2010 Mazdaspeed3
Mods: gtx3576 turbo + supporting mods (too many to feel like listing) making 500 whp, tuned by me. I've had my hands on and around more mazdaspeeds than i care to count lol perks of having a large garage and an engine hoist, and while i dont claim to be all knowing, id like to think i know my way around a car Hoping to eventually become as intiment with my Coyote.

At any rate, look forward to maybe hanging out with some of yall in the future.

Welcome man. Glad you made it over here.

If you find yourself here on a weekend, there is always plenty of action going on. There is a weekly meet in Mansfield, not too far from Midlothian, at a Fuzzy's Taco shop on Saturday evenings for starters.

Welcome!

I think the new V6's are cool too. Hell they've got 300hp. Back in the foxbody days we would have loved to have that with our v8s!

THe problem really is the gearing, a 2.73 is just too long, you can tell that motor wants to rip!

I'm typically out with the girlfriend on Saturday nights, or with her and her parents.
