I got scared when I saw the first pic. On my iPhone it looked as if it had been burned up in a fire. LOL. But it's coming along very nicely. Come to a Masiv Meet when she's on the road so we can all admire your hard work.
RE: NEW LOOK - My Engine/turbo Build - ZTWsquared - 05-02-2011
Looking good Sean ... wheels look really good IMO - just need to fill out that space with bigger rotors now.

Excellent - looking forward to seeing it.
As for tunes I really recommend the SCT / Randy at FSWerks route ... especially considering his experience with turbos.
RE: NEW LOOK - My Engine/turbo Build - drunkinmonkey - 05-09-2011
ya bryan at topspeed for what ever reason wont return my calls so he lost a customer...i think ill call randy sometime this week or next and get a tune from him
RE: NEW LOOK - My Engine/turbo Build - drunkinmonkey - 05-16-2011
