@nelsmar How about @Pizzman? He'll be there Saturday grilling & hes still all stock(except smoked side markers +10HP bitches!
I cant say enough for having Brent's & Jesse's expertise for this entire car makeover!! Guys were amazing! We had a great turnout, a great time(me especially)& aside from my lugnuts getting loose after the UniChip install & test runs,no major scares..

@captain_jack This kit is actually a thing of beauty, dresses up the engine bay AND yielded noticeable gains..

@jeffsides Install was unbelieveably easy, even on a hot engine! Im hoping to get some dyno time this weekend now because its too impressive not to know how much gain we're talking..

Im not huge on zipties which is what this kit comes with(color-matched!)so I plan on getting some rubberized hose clamps soon to finish the look,other than that,I now think even when my headers arrive,Ill just update the map for it,& not get a EcuTek tune like originally planned. This thing is legit!

The Hotchkis swaybar(front) is a BEAST, I now have zero body roll,and steering is SOLID,crazy solid!

Completely unimpressed with the provided mounting setup for my sharkfin antennae,definitely making th switch to something more legit soon.

So theres my take on our install night & results. Thanks guys for coming out, bringing drinks, unfortunately not a lot of pics were taken due to minimal lighting, but Ill process what I have soon and add to this post!

Ask Rich.

I merely course corrected with extreme prejudice. We were not headed in the right direction, so I acted appropriately.

AZSolo has had two events there already. One was the recent autox under the lights night event.

Gonna have some fun tearing up my stockers though hopw it rains tonight then its drift mayhem at my parking lot tonight.
Also just to be funny I torqued my wheels to 86 ft lbs lol.

I could be persuaded to go if the wife has no other plans for me. Not being a "car guy" I don't really care about a dyno, how much is it typically price-wise and where would this be? Also I'm an AT so you might consider my baseline tainted.
