    switch to synthetic

    I plan to make the switch tomorrow to synthetic oil from conventional. Is there anything extra that needs to be done? Do I need to do a flush with the syn first, or can I just do a normal oil change. I am just not sure if there will be problems if the 2 oils mix, because obviously not every...

    Volant Installed Today

    I just intalled the Volant in my Tahoe. I'm not sure how long it took because I was back and forth running a tag sale. I printed off the instructions that are on their website and brought those out with me because the included ones are not very detailed. Everything went pretty smooth. The...

    Whats more important to you all?

    What do you think is more important to do first, performance mods or aesthetics ("looks" for the less smart). Maybe important is not the right word, instead what is your preference to take care of. I have tried to do a little of both here and there, kind of like a one for one deal. I did the...

    halo projectors

    I don't know why I'm having such difficulty locating some nice halo projectors. I have looked through a lot of threads and found a few that I like, but cannot find them online. I have surfed E-bay a bunch and it's hit or miss there I guess. I like these ones that Gapxguy found...

    Cost of detailing

    What do any of you pay for a good detailing job? I'm talking about top to bottom, in and out cleaning. Wash, clay bar, polish, wax, etc. Or if you do it all yourself, how much time do you put aside to do it?

    Where can I get a new chevy emblem for my grill, but of a different color. All that I can find is the chrome ones, and I'm not really into that. Is there anywhere someone knows of to get them, other than having to paint mine?

    Has anyone installed the Corsa cat-back exhaust system? I see they have different models (ie: touring, sport, single-tip, dual-tip). Also they say that they are a GM aftermarket product. Any info would be helpful. I know they are expensive, around $800- $900. Also, I saw a Magna-flow, is...

    NEW ISS

    I brought my Tahoe in for service today at the dealer and they installed a new Intermediate shaft, instead of just re-lubing. They said that hopefully this will fix the problem, they have redesigned it. So anyone out there with "the shakes", bring it in for service. It was also covered under...
