I don't care how hot those girls are, but if they were touching my car, they'd be getting a earful.

Anyway good job on going turbo'd and the car looks a lot better with the OZs.

Only their hands were touching the car. That pic was taken at Texas Heatwave back in 09. One of the girls tried to lean on it but said "**** its hot!!!" Lol I believe it was 100* that day.

On a side note I forgot some mods and I will add tomorrow. Maybe add a couple of day pics and current pics of the interior.

I cant wait to get a manual car. Do you have any #s on the dyno? on turbo or the supercharger. Just wondering what mods you had when you ran 13.9 sc

You'd be surprised. I was at Carlisle with my buddy in a black WRX. There was girls promoting some vinyl wrapping thing. 1 girl sat down on the hood and the other knelt down infront of her. The girl kind of slid off the hood and left 2 scratches on the hood. The guy advertising gave him $50 to buy compounds to buff it out.

A t-shirt with the vinyl company and a thong. Darker colored cars scratch so much easier it sucks.

Turbo- no dyno
sc- 60s, 2.8, vibrant header and downpipe 2.5in exhaust, dual pass, and both stock and zzp heat exchangers I got 238whp and 215wtq on a dyno that is called a heartbreaker. This setup I ran the 13.9

Sounds good, I'm waiting for a couple more e85 stations to open up then I'm in. Also with my sc setup I was able to take on slightly modded srt4s, and had fun with most mustangs. Evos had a hard time getting away from me as well.

Added 3 new pictures lol one with a pretty dog, another with a flower, and a new interior pic with painted headliner and pillars. Before y'all ask how does the headliner feel, may I say it feels 100% non painted. It doesn't feel tacky at all.
