Default got my car back from ARD

Owen just finished up my stage 2 trans and 3k stall install. turns out my ecu was throwing wierd grounds to the trans and messing it all up causing the belts to get worn bad and clutches getting jerked around. anyway after all the trouble owen had to go through to figure out what the hell was wrong with it, it is running great.

I am still getting used to the stall even though it is kinda small it is still different. oh and my ls1 brake upgrade is the ****! no more mashing the pedal to stop lol. I think tonight or tomorrow i'll really break the new drivetrain in

yea, we saw you pull in, and roll through the wrong way and then no other sign of you. most of the people that meet up there never knew anybody at all before stopping by, but once you get out of your car, you'll be allright.
