Unfortunately I cannot say. The closest track to me is over an hour away and with a three year old, it has been tough to make a trip like that. I dyno'ed 257hp, 288tq with the mods in my sig.

My tune was easily the best money I have spent on the car.

Yea, he is looking at some right now. I guess he is looking for a white, black or stryker blue one. (In that order) It's not for certain but.

Sorry Levi, I couldn't wait, I'm pumped, and it's not my car!

S2000s are just as fun, just a little slower.

I'd love a Sky Redline, but for the price I can get my V.
