Thank you for the kind words.. My best advice is simply take your time, be patient and ask a lot of questions. It also never hurts to get more than one opinion. I'd love to see your car when it's finished.. Good luck.

I'm not going to lie.. it is super fun to drive.. Best part I think is.. the boost comes on so fast and so quick that there isn't much of a lag and you are flying all the time

I'll send a link to the video of a pull I did yesterday if interested. It's like you got a BJ in waiting every straightaway you find. ha ha.

Thanks for the kind words joey and on the congratulations of my son.. Yea.. he's my new project for the next couple of years..

In terms of the carputer.. It's very useful.. I use it mainly for media, gps, bluetooth phone, internet, logging pulls and swapping maps.. Not to mention I think it looks pretty sweet when I have digital gauges on my dashboard.

I'm a computer Tech for a living so all of this is right up my alley.. The hardest part actually was making a custom cubby/hvac molding.. as well as the custom flush touch screen molding to the double din.

Thanks again.

Cluster?? do you mean the Gauge cluster.. they call them Trustz Evo 8 Overlays.. simply little LED overlays that go over the stock gauge cluster. I did however insert a oil temp gauge where the Evolution circle was. Hope that helps.

A few years ago I was deep in the street racing scene and popping my hood was part of my game to give them confidence.. This is why the car still has the stock appearing look and I'm free of Company Names in the engine bay. (With the exception of the fuel rail-Still trying to find one unbranded.

Hey Gill, it was nice meeting you at the shootout. sorry i was about to throw up when we were talking though.. lol.. i was really sick at the time for sure.. took 3-4 hrs to pass.

that is insane power on the fp black! you basically have the highest HP LEGIT twin scroll fp black there is in a evo right now.. everyone else who made numbers in the near 700whp range were single scroll'ed.
