Sorry to hear about all that BS that happened trying to get her back on the road. That is definitely patience right there if I have ever seen it. Hope you get to enjoy it for a long time now, she looks really nice and I like the way you have the twin IC's with room in the middle for air to get to the radiator easily.

I would like to have a few runs up to 20 psi but after 2 days on the dyno they had to kick me off. I live about 3hrs away from Speed Inc. and I really don't want to take this car to just anyone to have them put it on the dyno and take the boost up to 20.

Austin made the emblems for my car. I can't wait to get them put on. I go tomorrow to pick the car up.
