I would say start ordering the parts, I will tell you that the MAP porting jobs have a fast turn around. The CBRD radiator is not so fast. Great part but Jeremy was waiting a good amount of time for it. You are cutting it close if you MUST be done by June and don't have the parts yet.

Many many thanks to jeremy for working on my car. Walbro fuel pump, k&n cone filter, boost leak test, tune. Also did all this last minute. Car feels superb after the work and i still cant get over how much sicker that filter sounds over the stock box. Couldnt be more pleased with how it turned out.

Ok so far besides all the tornado warnings. Jus on the job hunt now. Imma def miss the west coast tho. Spent alot of hours on the road and still have yet to see an evo of any kind out here. Crazy too because most of the main highways speed limits are only 55 or 60 youd think it wouldnt make much of a difference but anytime i drive anywhere I feel like im crawling. No one really drives that slow but I have the worst luck getting pulled over. Overall decent so far we'll see how I like it in a couple months or so.

Yeah those recent Tornado's have been crazy but where you are I think that your alot safer though. You'll def. have to take a drive down to Florida and check out Daytona beach,Miami and the keys also the everglades is kind of cool for the first 5 min.lol Florida is kind of like the east coasts version of California but alot more tropical.

Way to lay down some speed Jeremy!!! A 1.54 flat is really moving. Good practice for the hill climb.

Hey guys. I've been in the area now for about 2.5 years, but now I'm looking on moving back to the east coast for my job. I will be purging a lot of parts to make space before I go and it's eassier for me to sell locally. I haven't gotten around to posting pics so a local sale would be able to come see everything face to face. Drop me a PM if you want to check any of this stuff out.

No JDM bumper, but look at all those other goodies. Anyone go to the local Autocrosses?
