Sup guys as some of you might know my car got flooded about a month ago here in the Cypress area. Well my insurance declared a total loss . So I have some stuff for sale. I would put on the BM but don't want to deal with all the mailing hassle. If anybody is interested hit me up 832-878-2155. Here is what I have for sale.

Smoked tailights
Kuza Ipod holder
WeatherTech matts
XXR 19" flat black rims and tires

what's up guys. I'm probably about to order coilovers soon, anybody know a reputable place or person that can do the install? I havent done suspension work since my old integra in high school, and that was a PITA and really time consuming. So i'll probably just end up getting someone else to do it

I have a 6MT base TL almost fully bolted.
if you're pushing anywhere near 300-350, you're going to pull.

currently i'm at 250 wheel horsies.
will be at 270 here in a little.

On the mustang it read 216 LOL... on the dyno jet it made 286 first run, 272, and then 262 due to heat soak and outside temp 103...

That was before the pcd and exhaust upgrade. it should breathe better now. I pulled on a 2009 g37x (3 runs)

Meth kit will be next...

with the PCD's and exhaust, you'll be in the 350's no doubt.

Did you solve the problems with part throttle and over heating?
i'm assuming thats why you're going with meth.

does the AEM FIC control meth?


Would love a race between you and I at your current HP levels.
