Hey Guys....thanks for the nice comments.

1.) Suspension Set-up is Koni/Eibach.....I think the rear end is messed up.....I'm getting a minor vibration from the rear....checking out tomorrow so hopefully nothing serious.

I've had the car since November-ish....but now that you all point out that ass dragging it's really sticking out to me....thanks alot....HAHAHA....but, the Koni/Eiback set-up is known for that isn't? I think I've read that a lot of people combo the suspension w/ one brand on the rear and then the Koni/Eibach on the front.....am I right or am I smoking crack?

2.) As for the audio setup....I've got the Eclipse CD8454, MB Quart PCE-213 (speaker w/ tweeter in the kick panel) and then MB Quart PCE-164 (woofer in the front door panel). In the back seat I just have the stock speakers that have been detuned. Then the MTX Amps and Subs....I went the MTX route because the company I work with is a supplier for them so I get a decent vendor discount.

3.) Yup, that's the oh-so-famous vortech w/ the latest upgrades. The whole car was leaking like a siv when I got it, including the S/C. Vortech fixed it up, etc. and I had a well known fellow CEG'r get'r fixed up for me....as my mechanical skills are slim to none and slim left town a long time ago.

4.) Upgrades to come: ADC Chip, 70mm MAF w/ a real adapter....zip ties are doing the job right....yeah I know...pretty shady but it works for the time being. Then 30lb injectors and a new fuel pump.....then she'll be ready for SZ05....time to tear up the dyno......kind of....
and I have 18 stick Colormorphics Light Kit that I'm debating on installing.....

P.S. - the tint is crappy....I may have it re-done this fall. And as for horse power....I'm not quite sure at this time as I've never dynoed it....there's an undersized pulley for the S/C...like 3.00" or 3.12".....just under the standard size....I'd have to check it out to be sure.....I think the guy working on the car had an educated guess that is was pushing around 9-10PSI....don't quote me on it though my memory is shot right now....if I can come across some more money then it will be time for the intercooler....HOPEFULLY.

Haha, hey it's about you!

Good luck on all your upgrades, if I can make it out to SZ05 I will definitely be there, but graduation is on the 22nd and I can't miss that.

First thing I thought is why did JonnySVT sell his car? lol

Car is sweet as hell. T-Red and MB, my favorite color combo.

You stole my old rims too.
