I bought the Vortech V3 in Satin Black, with a Vortech Maxflo BAP, ID 1000 injectors, JLT competition Intake, Upgraded BOV, T-Bolts, Brisk plugs and Boss adapter from Beefcake. His special also included tuning from Jon Lund. Already received our base tune, once we complete the install, load the tune and begin a remote session with Lund. The kit looks freak'n sick! It is all here, now when the car gets home, we can do the install. Also picked up a Roush lower grill delete so she can show her teeth and an aluminum coolant tank. Our goal is the same, don't plan on building the lower end until we have too. Would like to tune to 625rwhp with the mods we run.

Nice I went with polished. Plan on going with a chrome carbon fiber theme under the hood

That will look awesome. We already have a ton of carbon fiber so we will have the blackout carbon fiber look.

Here is our bay before we install the Vortech

Most everything we have is from Trucarbon. I wrapped the strut tower brace, but everything else is real carbon fiber.

Very Nice!. Hopefully the hydro dip comes out really good. Here is a sick pic from the guy who will probably do my hydro dipping.

NICE! We will be finally doing our install this weekend. My son has a break in tournaments and travel, so the window of opportunity is finally here.
