Acadian,
If you have the time check out sections of the Blue Ridge parkway and Skyline drive. It's not real fast but it is nice scenery.
Beware of the local cop that sits in the middle of the "dragon"!
I was up in Quebec with my Stage II a couple weeks ago, ran the Gaspe peninsula - very nice!
Regards and good luck with your installation. It will be a totally different car.

The boost is right on and handy at the end of every curves and for climbing all thoses steep hills.
Man that is almost better than sex... seriously, i can not stop driving that thing that is now a beast.
WOOHOO !!!!!!!!
,OK now that i am trying to calm my self in that Tennessee hotel room waiting for the next roller coaster ride tomorrow...
i will finally be at the LEXINGTON meet thrusday and friday to see you guys before coming home to Quebec ,Canada.
Randy and Dave of DDMWORKS are the coolest, most patient, flexible and professionals car guys I've met in a long time. They did the install and i could not be happier. They answered all my questions ( had a ton of them on their setup...)
Will provide more info later in a separate thread when i get back home.

Thanks again for coming down for the install, it was great meeting you and we look forward to seeing you over in Lexingon for the supercharger reunion
By the way, did you ever happen to ask when Stage III is coming out?
i know that they are working on it...that is all i know.
and i also know that to improve the balance in the car , i will upgrade the brakes ,the base na suspension and those scary rsa tires to fully use all the torque that the stage 2 is producing...
i've own musclecars... now i want a well balanced sport car that can kick some porsches ass on any type of roads ( not all, just some porsches...)
after that , we will see,
a helmet and roll bar would also be a wise choices...
for my driving style anyway ... ( big balls required lol...)
Welcome to the fun car club, and driving on the RSA's well that only sharpens your driving skills

I am now typing this post from my hotel room in Bryson, NC. did route 116 ( devil's triangle in tennesse 2 times in a row !!!!! crazy i know ...), drove to cades cove in the smoky nat. park ( beautiful but boring...) went to clingsman dome ( almost a pike's peak ascent with small amount of traffic....Way too cool !)
went thru Cherokee to end my day in bryson, 10 hours driving non -stop except for gas, beef jerky and water.
need some rest for tomorrow...
and those poor RSA tires definitely needed some rest after clingsman dome...( i did push my luck a bit in those corners... )
can not help it... but sight seeing while driving was next to impossible at those speed.
There are now 6 DDM cars that will be there:
Randy
Bryan1969
1KULSOL
Diamoney
Acadian
Carlintexas (not an S/C but still DDM)
I do not know how to schedule my trip as for my arrival time in lexington,
i will be there thursday but i do not know when, will you guys come in early or later in the day ?
