    Mike, cut the fairing to the correct size.

      you've got my number dude. i feel the power come on earlier, but i'm not sure how much harder it actually kicks yet. also took it to 7k (once) to just to do it and it dies off over mid 6ks. but i really don't like to rev out like that anyways. i've got the wrong clips too..they're like super wide but i got them mounted without fuckin anything up..just took some time to get it right.

      edwin, i'm thinking about taking off the plastic ends off but it looks like the fairing wont mount correctly then..

            travis - find a blown block...that one snapped a piston and shot holes through both sides..useless mechanically, but a kickass table for me!!!1one!!!

            as for the fairing...taking the ends off worked perfectly. only prob is the ends were the last mounts so i had to use double-sided tape, but it sits flush and tight. notice my modified volvo lip too ;)

              yeah man ill probably be doing that because it looks good and def creative to have a nice m20 head in your room to remind you of the car parked outside. reminds me a lot of top gear's table. and the fairing looks much better now. i still think you should keep an eye out for the old skool 555 thule or just make your own. btw you surf? that's a surf rack right?

                Yeah I try to..but the surf board attachment was a real come up. My car is parked at a frat this year and I'm way worried about her...at least there's an e46 M blocking my car! ;)

                  oh good man. we should hit it up sometime. fold in your mirrors, add an alarm system, and make sure you park inside or at least park where you can see your car! haha

                      hahaha tell me about it. even though my car looks like a pos, i park that shit right in front of the window at work so i can watch her all night long and when someone is standing by it i stare at them. its ridiculous but completely necessary.
