Yes I know this is a odd post but I'm just curious to see who owns my pride and joy now.
I built it back on 2005 and sold it to Dave Dingman in Utah in 02/07 and I think he has sold it since. Just trying to track it down and see if it is still was amazing as it was when I had it. Here are some pics.











oh and here is one more

Very nice. I know the feeling exactly, I sold my CYM in 2005 and just bought it back a couple weeks ago. Lucky for me the interim (lol) owner only drove it 6-7k miles and tool good care of it.

Yup. not to mention apexi skirts are one piece rather than 2. Looks more finished per say with apexi.

Never dynoed the car after the intake, and the butt dyno would be fair cause I did the fast 90/90 and a set a stage 3 ported ls6 heads at the same time. So the car picked up a good bit of power at one time.
