Yep give it some time though and you will see more clutches breaking. Most people have few miles on their TCs right now.

i think i'm gonna do some suspension mods, then work on the appearance, starting w/ some headlights
I don't think so. His focus on cars dwindled away and he's since just become a man *****, lol.

5K miles is not much. If you drive hard all the time be prepared to replace your cluch after a few years. You will get good mileage and wear if you are nice to it most of the time.

The higher the K number the lower the light output, if you want pure white light go with 4300k, if your want barney purple lights go with 10000k.

Your right, 10000k is blue. Maybe if you add a red light somewhere and a siren to your car you can run through red lights on the intersection.

Retrofits use oem projectors/ballasts/bulbs from acura's/infiniti's/audi's, your cheap hid kit will die quicker than any retrofit out there.

Stage 3+ or stage 3? I like the 3+ becasue it is a full disc clutch not a puck style so more holding area and hopefully smoother engagement.

Stock appearing, but flows 25% better (32lbs/min vs. 40lbs/min). On the cobalt ss, there are four bolts that connect the turbo outlet to a cast iron elbow that than connects to the downpipe, of the 4, 3 are hard to get at. I could not get them laying down on my back with just jacks. But when i had it professionally installed they used a lift and got the bolts off without any extensions. Ive had mined tuned and am making 301HP and 310TQ. Low considering some people with only a tune make more than this, but i have a HP Tuners module in the mail from Dejon and am going to work with Bald Turbo Freak to get a lot better numbers, hopefully. In an ideal situation and dyno, numbers should read 320-330HP and 350-360TQ

I had a custom dyno tune done by precision motorsports here in Florida. I am on 93 octane and revised timing tables. My car made 289 whp and 311 wtrq with the stock timing tables, and 307 whp and 330 wrtq with changes.

Its not **** talk, why do you want blue lights on your car? Isn't the point of hid's to have more light? Those high K lights will give you less output than 4300k ones and will make you an easy target for cops to pick on, they hate people who have these blinding hid kits on their cars.
