Default Allow myself to introduce... um... myself

Sorry if this is in the wrong section...

Name is Fernando aka Teh Flo (to most)... I had been in the neon game for a few years when I picked up an '01, and happen to find my way onto a couple of forums... quickly I made friends and met some pretty cool people. I then started to hear about the SRT-4, after I saw one, I was hooked and I knew I wanted one.

I was once the owner of this...



a 2004 SRT-4... and I loved it. I had quite a bit invested into it.

Boomba Engine Mounts
Borla Cat-Back
CCA Front Mount Intercooler
JMB Pipe w/Greddy Type S BOV
AEM CAI
Maddog STS
MaxxFabb 3 inch o2 Housing
Mopar Stage 2 w/ Toys
Needswing DP w/McCord
Ported Intake Mani
Ported Exhaust Mani
Ported Turbo housing

36-Way IPP Coilovers
Front/Rear Strut Tower Bars
Mopar Super Center Cross Drilled Rotors/Brakes
18x7.5 Nex-o rims PX-5
Upgraded Sway Bars

AEM Uego A/F Gauge
Mechanical Oil Pressure Gauge
Tech Gauges

When I autox, I swap out my rims to 17x7 Centerline Storm Rims wrapped in Azenis RT-615. And when I hit the 1/4 mile track, I'll go with BFG DR's with stock rims.



It all came crashing down around sept last year, as the car suddenly came down with problems. So much so that I no longer wanted to keep it as I didn't have confidence in the car. Due to many different reason and situations, I picked out a car that I thought would be something that I would enjoy, it was definitely different.

In came the 2007 Scion tC, the tC era had begun.



It is a great car... but something feels like its missing. All I can say for sure right now is that there is something-ah-brewing. There just might be a change.

Even with the tC, I still am extremely involved with the local car club that I help run. The Chicagoland SRT Club aka CSC, its more then a car club, its a lifestyle. Things are already brewing on our schedule for the next couple of months and it appears to be a year in which we grow and are extremely active.
