Guess i should jump in the fray. Newerish V2 Owner.
So. I got rid of my powerstroke and my 08 GP GXP, Blew a wad of savings, blew the tax refund, and dipped into other funds i never should've touched...
...for this:
2012. Black Raven, Black wheels, Recaro, Sunroof, 6spd. 11k miles when i picked it up.
It proceeded to get:
Metco 2.5, Ebay Chinafiber intake pipe, Box mod, K&N, 63lb Injectors and a Tune at New Era Performance.
The Results:
I'm over on ctsvowners mostly...but still drop in from time to time.
Since the dyno i've added a varimax IC pump and a Norcal tank arrives tuesday. Up after that is a HX and an exhaust of some sort after the wedding.
So...Hi...and stuff...

It's not that bad yet. I can still eat hamburger helper at least.
Not exactly crazy. the pulley, intake and tune are standard stage 1 stuff. the results exceeded expectations though...
I do fight the urge everyday to sell the turbo hayabusa and send the V away for a forged lower/TFS upper/cam/ported everything/squash/E85 death machine.

the bright side is before i blew a wad of cash on the car i also paid a bunch of other **** off...the financial hit was actually negligible compared to before...mods were primarily financed by selling spare parts from the bike and previous cars...i ate a little interest on the icebox and IC pump only because those were so cheap and popped up the same day mere minutes apart.
I'm glad i squirreled all the money away in the first place though. The next time i do that it's gonna be a house. i need someplace to park the V in the winter. lol
