Well just as I got happy with the way things were on my car, I ended up putting it into a cement wall on the express way!!! Only hit twice, of course it had to be the front and back, so now my svt rear bumper is no good either. I walked away, but the car is a write off, I am buying it off of the insurance company and if I don't buy another tour I will be selling lots and lots of goodies, everything from the power leather buckets to the fidanza flywheel, and if you get lucky the 8000k hid's and the sct 4 position chip with usb burner, I will make a new classified post when the time comes. Oh well maybe now I can make another 2.5L get into the low 13's

Sorry to hear about your misfortune. Sucks when something you have put a lot of effort into gets ruined. At the risk of sounding like a vulture, I'd be interested in some of those parts including the chip and HID's. Hope all goes well towards your next car whatever it may be and it is good to hear you walked away from this.

Good to hear you're ok. I always hated going to Windsor, road/drivers(not all!) are really bad.
What is this 4 position chip with usb burner you speak of? Do you have a web site for it?

Sounds like you have become a victim of E.C. Row. in Windsor.
Sorry to hear about your car, and great to hear that you are alright!

E.C. Row reminds me a lot of the Conestoga Expressway in Kitchener -Waterloo. Somehow, I didn't like how the OPP would hide in the ditch after Walker Rd Then again, there's something with the Huron Church turnoff...I'm not sure if people go too fast on that offramp or what?
At least you're okay.

Here's a random, unrelated EC Row story.
My friend was driving a company Focus down the expressway, doing about 110 and wondering why the morning traffic was so slow. Then he stared at the speedo and realized it was a US-spec car.

Yes it happened in windsor. the website for the chip is www.modulardepot.com it is called the pro racer package. I might be buying a 98 svt from TO for $8500 or a 91 mustang gt with an "A" trim blower for $7000, so I may still be using all my stuff if I buy a ford with 9006 headlights and a 2.5/3.0L. I will know within the next couple of weeks, once I figure out what I want to buy. untill then no sales.
