The car is a 98 Firebird Trans Am, LS1 V8, 6-speed, t-tops, loaded interior, and a rare "Mystic Teal Metallic" color. Very few MTM Trans Ams were made. Odometer is at 123,xxx miles. I had a rebuilt Transmission and rebuilt rear-end installed, both now have about 15,000 miles on them. The car is modified from stock, but I made sure it was Drivable, since it is currently my Daily Driver. The car dynoed 340rwhp, about 40 more hp than in stock trim. After that dyno, i installed the LS6 manifold and the ported/polished throttle body, and 3.73 gears. Im guessing it makes about 350rwhp now. The mods are listed below.
>Engine:
-Full intake (Fast Toys Ram Air, ported/polished throttle body, GMS air lid, LS6 MAF, LS6 intake manifold w/EGR equipment intact so it still passes SMOG visual)
-ASP underdrive pulley
-Thunder Racing CheaTR cam (mild, but good power band), with supporting Comp 918 springs and longer pushrods.
>Exhaust:
-Stock manifolds/y-pipe, with a Borla non-adjustable cat-back. The car sounds very good.
>Drivetrain:
-rebuilt T-56 (15,00 miles now on it)
-rebuilt rear-end with OEM 3.73 gear ratio.
>Other
-17' wheels from an 02 WS6 (ram air) Trans Am
- Ken Brown Double-diamond sub-frame connectors (no longer being made, still the best out there!)
-BMR lowering springs
-BMR shock-tower brace
Exterior...
Original factory paint, repainted bumper, hood and passenger side rear quarter panel. Car has a few small scratches from daily driver use.
Interior...
Small rip in driver's seat on a seam. Very common in F-bodys.
