Don't know about where you're at but in Chicago it's just a parking/non-moving citation. You're lucky though...when I had front tints I would park my car somewhere and come back and there's that bright orange parking ticket on it. Did the violation show a fine of $250 though?

Have fun getting our dinky drivetrain, axles and clutch to hold to 600WHP. I like the turbo idea, but IMO the TL is not a drag car...

putting in a 6spd and upgrading the clutch. still looking for some axles when i go to 600+whp.
i know its not a drag car, and ppl know that too, but its something that i like doing and its gonna be great on the track.

New LAW as of beginning of january 2009, front windows tinted in chicago you get a $250 fine or you have to take them off, if they catch u again you have to pay the fine.

way too much, this isnt a simple thing to do, have to be very mechanically inclined and have to know how everything works. and its expensive.
one one have done the 6spd diy and this is even harder and more expensive, let alone time consuming.

ill post up pics of when im done (month, 2months max)

..your a fucking moron. I have seen his work-in-progress in person and can personally vouch that his setup is 100% legit.. and not him just hanging a FMI and snapping some pics. You wouldn't be saying the shit you are if you saw him hacking up his front bumper with a dremel tool...

aren't you the first person w/an 02-03 or a type-s to do the 6 speed swap?
are you also using the richiev6 proposed harness?

if so i think you should try to make a somewhat diy for the 6 speed swap.
obviously the turbo is a whole nother thing. but the 6 speed swap should be easiest to do on a type-s and should be much easier when using the rv6 harness.

would love to see how its done.

i think i would be the first 02-03tls with the 6spd swap. im trying to buy a parts car (cls-6) for the swap. so i have all oem parts and know that nothing will go wrong. got out bided by a few hundred bux on two cl-s6 that i wanted. o well the waiting game continues.

out of curiosity, where did u get your manifold and how much $? you have to post pics too, and that bolting up thing with minor fab., throw that idea out the window . my car is a all taken apart (whole interior, trunk, and the LF of the car) doing some small but important things to it.
