oh i still have the 6 speed on deck.

updates... umm ive just been driving the car around and having a good time.

ive put in some black foglights and an express down window module for the passenger side... but havent done anything else

ive been doign a good job running around at only 14psi.. and it feels great right there.. so i'm going to leave it untill i see how fast it goes right there. i would say a 10.40 or so the way i drive it every day, same wheels and tires and fuel.
