Who was it? I know you're on here.. LOL

Was it you Johnny?

I heard it from inside the store and was like "I know that sound!!" So I ran outside and say a blue 4x4 Ext.Cab pull away from the stoplight of E.Tabor and N.Texas.

How do you know it was an STS and not just a regular turbo?

Are you sure it just wasn't a large throttle body spacer?

Exactly! There was some water in the gutter before the truck rolled by and it was gone afterwards.

I don't know for sure but it sounded almost exactly like my old kit did with the same backflutter form no BOV and the truck was big and tall like Johnny's? from Vacaville. At least it looked like the couple pics I saw. I wonder if whoever it was noticed my truck sitting out front. I looked at my poor Z71 and I think I saw a tear drip down the grille when it heard the turbo flutter.
