Been a member of Ls1tech for longer than I even want to admit. This is the SAME car I originally bought back in 2000. Went 13's...then 12s...then 11s....then 10s....now this!

Definately going to crank the boost up. Plan to get it up in the 15-20 range. It will all depend on what the motor will take/handle.

Depends on the vinyl company used. We used 3m, and have already replaced a piece on my car. Cam right off and left no residue on the paint. I'm probably going to re-wrap it over the winter if funds allow.



Congrats Man!

I'd wrap it again in a heartbeat. I love it! You can go as extreme as you want with minimal investment, and if you get bored with it, you can always re-wrap it!
