The STM RSTI at 700whp 2000lbs did 8.9 anything in the EVO platform can do way better with the same specs lol. Although the super99 is gonna do 800whp easily. Here come 7s! Evo ftw

Emery sent the glass in for the manufacturer to use as the template, so I think they should fit pretty good.

I am with you on the list of goodies I wish I could have... I think the rear brakes and a staging brake are next on my list though.

Yes! The lexan is here! Here's the rough photos: And we have two extra sets in stock ready to go!

We do want to make 100% sure everything fits perfectly before putting them on the website though, and we still need final weights of the lexan vs OEM glass, so stay tuned for that. Looks like the full lexan kit will be $1500 shipped though.

It's still got the protective film on it, but as you can see.. it's crystal clear. I left the finger prints on the one window so you could tell it's there








And back on the ground, looking good!









STM Evo VIII-IX Front Drag Brake Kit

And the Rear Brake Kit is almost done!!

I would estimate about 30lbs with all the windows replaced. That's what the old ams kit saved. Im sure this will be in the same ball park.

In for weight savings!
