Mine popped in early 2006... one of the pioneers I guess. hahah

I thought you lost a motor... bad cats on a boosted engine IIRC?

I was having an exhaust convo with someone and it came up.

i hammered my 2001 GT's motor back in late 02 with a 125 shot of nitrous. but i missed a shift and that pretty much ended my motors short life.

put a DSS shortblock in it and an S-trim w/10 lbs of boost running 425 rwhp and beating the snot outta it and it handled it just fine.
