    My 03 300A *DUW*

    Last october in search for a P71 or Cv with HHP I came across the 300A and a 96 Impala SS on the dealership lot. After test driving both I felt the MM was a better choice with it's acceleration, stiff But not bone rattling air ride suspention, ability to grip or break free in turns at your command, i'm not a GM person, and it still had a factory warenty which was wisely used up to it's non existince. I also got a 1 year warenty with the dealership since I happen to be owner #3 Owner 1 was in Flordia and Owner 2 was in Texas. After that one is over I desided to to either go with a twin screw charger or pro charger. Hopely I will be the final owner of her. Since I have 2 cars modded(mazda 6 soon to be sold) I had to slowly mod the MM to not go broke

    Mods are as follows:

    *4.6 DOHC Checkered Flag Fender Badges
    *2 Way Paging & Remote Start Alarm
    *18 Inch Magnaflows Awaiting Instal...
    *K&N Fuel Injection Performance Kit
    *Pro Guard
    *Super Chips Tuning XCalibrator2 HandheldTuner:
    -Changed Shift Points
    -Changed Shift Firmness
    -Changed Redline
    -Changed Timming
    -Changed Fuel Maps
    -Changed Idle In Neutral And Drive
    -Removed Govoner

    -Temporarly Recalibrated Speedo For Snow Rims
    -Reads CELS
    -Datalogs

    Caution some picts may be graphic. If you are unable to see a MM with snow tires on view with caution. Myself or tis forum is not responcible for any ilnesses suffered from viewing theses photos. Viewers discresion is advised





    If you watch the next 2 picts you can see the Fuel sender issue before tsb was done

      Thanks Had to slightly detune it cause the 16's and non ZR rated tires get froggy on the firm upshifts and throttle steers. Sometimes upshifts caused fishtails. Can't wait til snow is gone so I can go back to Sticky tyres. Wish I could have stayed in texas where I bought the car. Only real good thing about the PI rims is nobody cuts me off and once I get in the left lane everyone moves out of my way Sad thing is I still use blackmagic on the tyres.

      Current setup:
      04 and up Flat Faced PI rims and Moutaineer Centercaps. I'm more of a fan of the pre 03 rims but didn't want the lowrider look(they stick out past fenders).

                            Welcome aboard.

                            I like those badges too. Been looking for the SOHC ones but they don't stock them anymore at the site I was looking on.

                            I was thinking about the Proguards too. Just wanted to see more input on them.
