Did you see it parked at lordco or was I driving? There is another white SS/TC with the highrise running around langley. My car has shaved badges and css.net and pedrobear stickers on the quarter windows.

haha definatly, been on the look out for a couple TC guys, I wasnt a big fan of the red/black combo.. i really wanted a white exterior and a black on black interior.. but i couldnt find any so i settled for the all black combo.

Im probably going down to the states to join up with another member for a tune on monday, Im not sure if you are familiar with the trifecta tune, but if your not busy you should definatly come out

Tune can eliminate that little bit of lag when u hit the throttle, raise your rev limiter, get rid of the speed limiter add hp and get better fuel economy.

Deffinately worth while to get them if u can afford it. A trifecta tune is $250 US. Right night, there is a meet being planned just across the boarder at a dyno shop to get our cars tuned, its $250 for a dyno tune which is a great deal

To put things into a bit of perspective i guess... the trifecta tune is known to push our LNFs to 300whp and 310wtq without any other modifications

yaup voids warranty.. if they check for flashes, What i've heard anyways is that minor problems going in for warranty they wont check for flash.. but lets say you damaged your turbo and you go in for your warranty, they'll most likely check for a flash

I talked to vince and he said that none of his customers have ever been denied warranty because of his tune. The dealers made a bit of a fuss but always warrantied the cars
