Well I just dropped the car off, spent an hour or so talking to Brent and Dave. I just missed cfr865 by an hour or so..... he had his Paxton kit installed and I know what #s it made but I'll let him inform people if he wants to..... let's just say it was impressed to say the least and I wish I could've met him.

So, now a couple of weeks to wait till I get back home and can pick it up.


Hey Scott regarding the dyno day, they're still planning for April 21st, but they haven't absolutely confirmed yet; they're wanting to make sure there are no local shows going on which I doubt there will be.

I asked Brent and Dave if they know waht time you would be there, They didn't know. I had about a 4 hr. drive so I wanted to get going. 455 rwhp, the car is scary fast !!!!!! Good luck on your s/c package, the difference is awsome, just like the job Brent and Dave did on the install and tune.

Quick update........ 430 rwhp today on the dyno; with a very safe tune since there is no 'cooler. I'll post pix and vids when I can. Only mods (that are adding power) besides the blower are delete plates ($95) and Pypes offroad H ($170).

That's pretty good without an intercooler, and on a safe tune is always important. Sounds great!

HAHA you're right, I wish I could. I do have a picture but I've been sworn to secrecy by Brenspeed until they clean up the engine, etc. Right now I'm stuck in Cali at the inlaws and will be home late Saturday night, pick the car up on Monday-



back to work on Tuesday.

Where did you stay in Kauai? I love it there. BTW, I was supposed to be there all of last week but we had to cancel this year!

I got stuck here again today, my flight out of Ontario was delayed by like 2 hours so I would've missed my (only) connecting flight home. So, I'll try again tomorrow which really sucks.......... I wanna go home!
