I like the motto! Hahaha well hell.. If he is lookin into upgrading tell him im interested in the stage one if he is lookin at gettin rid of it when he goes for the upgrade. That is if he wants to get rid of it. If not its all good lol. Just lookin at options and what I can get myself into lol. Now that I think of it.. I went to Des Moines before winter hit and saw a yellow ss. Thought I was lookin in a mirror except my windows were tinted and the other balt's wasn't. He was also going the opposite direction. i'll be makin a trip to Des Moines sometime this weekend just so you know if you see a yellow balt in town and its not your buddies it will prolly be me.

Well Sam when Andy is ready to drop that pulley and put on the heat exchanger I'll be glad to retune the car and keep him in the safe zone.

I hope he'll be getting a AFR gauge once he drops down just to keep it in check. Probably would be good to invest in an Intercepter gauge also to monitor knock.

I have SC wheels, they aren't black but I'd trade them and you could paint or powdercoat them.
