Soon to be Central FL Newbie

Get me the BIG hammer
Well I dont quite have my Syclone yet, but thats only due to beign in Iraq still. Next month I'll be back in Orlando on my mid-tour leave. I'll find out exact dates in a few days. But while I am there I will be buying a Syclone. I got my eye on one but there are others out there so if I dont happen I'll still be getting one.

Anyway, I have never owned or messed around too much with a Turbo vehicle. I'm a decent mechanic, been turning wrenchs since before I could drive legally and thats my job in the Amry too. So I will need some help learining my new SY and working on it. I know all to well that every vehicle has its tricks to it.

Depending on the truck i get will depend on what I do to it. But basically it will be a drive to enjoy on the streets (i may get on the track once in a blue moon). I'm looking to be quick, not too fast just quick.like 12 flat range. Not know these trucks to well I will need help with everything from choosing and finding the parts to advice and maybe some help on the installation.

LOL yep anther SY in FL :D

Where in Orlando.... I can come and help you out if youd like, both going to look at the truck and working on it if you buy it. In fact, if the truck your looking at is in Orlando, I can go look at the truck for you before you get back to make sure your getting a good deal.

Well I live not too far from the airport (east grant st). And yes there is a truck in Orlando. Christian Dionne on the board is the one who is selling it. He is in Orlando. The phone number I have for him is a sprint cell phone (I can tell by the number 407-221 number) he says Adam (SY0237) can vouch for the truck. He has sent quite a few pics to me. I cant wait to get there to test drive it.

If I had the money laying around, it would already be in my driveway being used as a daily.

Re: Soon to be Central FL Newbie

This is the 1st time I have had enough cash to be able to afford a SY. I have been wanting one for 10yrs now. I need a vehicle (sold my car before i left for Iraq) and I have the money, so I finally get a SY one of my dream cars. And yes it will be my Daily for a while. Till I get my bike then it will split daily duties... So if you know anyone selling a sportbike, I might have to take a look at it while I am home on leave.

LOL well technically adam is closer since i am still technically a Ft. Stewart, GA resident. But that is only for 8 months after I get back from Iraq. Then I will be moving back to Orlando (or the area, depends on if i find a place for my girl and I). My Girlfriend lives in Winter Springs... yeah I'll be there ALL the time :D

I'm getting the SY and will be home for 2 weeks sometime next month. I'll have to try to get together with all of ya then. I know everyone has a different schedule and everyone at once would be hard on short notice. So it may be individually or small groups. I know everyone gets a lunch break. We can always do lunch... Hooters anyone?

Hey, I work at Ft. Stewart. I probably won't have my Sy or Ty down here until after April 1st. So maybe we can hook up with Mike Hood as well and get together and talk SyTy and stuff.

Hell Yeah we can hook up. I'm actually not there right now. I'm with 2nd Brigade so we wont be home till July 25th. I'll be back in Orlando on leave the 10th of march. There may be a trip up to Ft.Stewart that i make while on leave I dont know yet. But deffinitly we well have to hook up when i get back and go see Mike Hood. i have heard nothing but good things about him. Need to talk chips and tuning with him. I can do all the other work on my truck but that (plus see his thoughts and opintions on parts, maybe recomendations on a tranny builder in the area).

Oh if you got some work done to your truck and want to embares and make some money off a rice i know a couple who say that a truck wont beat there Ricer Rocket LOL

Freedom isnt free and some people in the US take that it for grannet. Its nice to know that there are some people who apreciate the job we do. Thank You
