No I havent looked yet, my family will stay here for now as I will be going back and forth between GA and there for training. I will be looking for an apt or 1 bedroom place that is furnished. Ive been hearing bad things about El Paso with cars getting stolen and gangs and all but Im sure its no worse than any other city. I have the FI and it sounds very aggressive, the vids on line really dont give the true sound to it, so I will have to come by and let you hear it.

In response to the supercharger power question, both are centrifugal style blowers, so they wont have as much low end torque as a root/screw style, it'll gradually build boost much like a turbo without all the lag, and produce good peak hp. I'd say after 3k, it should pull pretty hard. In reference to the auto theft, there are a few gated apartment communities here if that will give you piece of mind. Our Z club meets every sunday, so hopefully you'll come out and cruise with us, theres some good mountain runs here that'll get your blood flowin, only bad part is that you'll notice a definite loss of power from your car, we're a mile up here.

Here's a thread with some pics from a few of our cruises.

I will definatley show for the GTGs, like I said before, they are lame here with no GTGs for the Zs. I will still be holding my house here in GA so I wont be able to afford a nice gated community, just lookin for a fairly cheap clean safe place till the family moves down, nothin special. I can live and have lived in some crapy places and I dont mind as long as they are clean. Living in tents and all while deployed a few times can teach you to live down if need be.

My Apartments are literally out the back gate of Bliss, 1 bedrooms here are pretty cheap, havent had my car stolen yet, might be something to check out. Most of the tenants here are military including myself. Here's a link..
