We sell more MXP though because it's typically in stock at our shop.

MXP if you want no drone.

DC sport if you want a nice tone.

Rear fender cut for rocket bunny.


measuring the over fenders etc.




Rear fitment


Airrex Version 2 kit


Airlift mangement system


Our wheels for sema. MTechnica 2 piece series.


Perrin Oil Cooler Setup


Setrab cooler which is included with the Perrin Oil cooler setup. Love the location of the oil cooler vs the HKS one.


Perrin intake system. Fitment was great and saved us more room inside the engine bay.
