    The car is looking good as always - I can't wait to come by when my new suspension comes in.

        probably better that the colors are backwards to avoid copyright infringement or whatever...

        and i can attest to their attention to detail and the quality of their work personally

        brian and jim are just all around good guys, and they definitely know their shit

              Definitely - going with BC Racing but I'm waiting to purchase the Blunttech suspension refresh kit before I do though. Btw, is the MT1 wing f/s? :)

                Wally we are BC dealers and can hook you up with suspension parts too, as far as the mt1 goes I have a lot of people interested and once it is removed I will put a for sale post up unless someone has a compelling offer

                  First drive today, ran perfect! bit of smooke from burning off heatwrap and melting valve cover cover but that was easily fixed. Hit 13 psi w/ low boost on the AMS-500. Pretty fun!, boost hits at 3250 and its off from there!!

                    Just went through this thread again, and I have to say, it is a bit rediculous how sweet this car is. congrats.

                      Dyno'd today, needs a retune as it was a bit lean up top but ran well. Had a bit of tire spin on the dyno even airid down to 15psi so readings are a hair off but I was happy with base tune and the aquamist not flowing.
