Cool, welcome to the 8th! There are certain things that give away that its a ss/sc rather than just the ss model. Different front end, tall spoiler to name the most obvious.

biggest problem i have ran across is people cant stinguish the SS 2.4 with the SS 2.0

i bought mine feb '06 and i just use it for a DD.. its my first 4-cylinder car i have ever owned and i am pleasantly pleased with it..i tryed to look at the SI but the dealer i went to said i had special order one and no "test drives" were allowed.. yeah well.. that kinda ended that..

as far as problems with the car.. i havent had anything.. but alot of guys do have problems with little shit like cluthes (i blame it more on lack of experience)

the 05/06 wing can be misleading.. alot of ss/sc will take off the high-rise and trade it with a 2.2/2.4 low-rise wing... also 07's ss/sc do not come with the high-rise.. you might be able to get it special ordered.. but its not "stock"

if you can't see under the hood or if you dont hear the blower whine.. its not a 2.0... thats pretty much the only way you can truely tell.. i have not met 1 ss/sc owner that hasnt atleast modified the intake to let the whine be vocal

welcome..I raced a ss/sc stage 2 the other day,claiming 265whp I pulled on him 1st-2nd
then his 3rd left me one car length, then we got on the interstate from a 40 roll I got 2nd-3rd,then his 3rd pulled up next me and then his 4th left me 1 1/2 car length.. I expected more from that power and his gears are pretty long! maybe it was the driver...that thing was screaming though,sounds nice!!
but turbo ftw!!

im located in the Atl.

car is pretty much stock..
i have a torque bracer to try to get rid of some wheel hop and a Fujita CAI..
i do have the GM stage II in the garage with a 2.9" pully (gm stage II is a 3.06" compared to our stock 3.3xx").. i just havent had time to install it...
just gonna throw on some exhaust after that and call it quits.. it should sit me around the 24x-26x range and should be enough for the DD.

1st is a complete waist for us.. to much gear and b/c of our wheelhop.. broken axles have come somewhat of an issue for some peeps.

2nd/3rd are our major power gears and they are long as hell... 3rd definantly is our best though without a doubt... and with the intake.. they do scream like mad.. i cant wait to put on the 2.9 and really hear it
