I may get flamed for this, but if I were you, Id paint the VC blue.

Remikinz - The red tops had just over 200hp stock.

205hp at the crank. I'm guessing it'll be around 220hp with the set-up I have right now.

I have heard legends about the spec B, but that is a new one....

(the joke is on the Legacygt.com forum, there is a group where the spec B, is it worth it, has arguments pro and con, mostly folklore and the imagination).
