That looks pretty decent...I don't like the single exhaust with that bumper, but to each his own.

Are you being an ******* to me? Just curious. I don't think I am going to see any of that car, but maybe I'm just being overly logical.

He is a good friend of mine. I only meant that in jest. Like I said before, those pics do not do that car justice.

Let me explain something about his car. He was running a hybrid turbo and stock intercooler and ran an 11.9 quarter mile. That was not good enough for him, so he went with a front mount intercooler and full upgraded turbo.
He is not the type to brag, nor does he ever log onto this forum, so I felt he deserved someone to brag on his behalf. He has put SO MUCH time into that car, that it needs to be shown off.

I did not mean anything by what I said, and I apologize if I offended anyone.

Lets not fight kids

Mr. Marr is a good friend of mine as well, and Kris, he probably logs onto just about every forum you can think of . He just never posts.

11.9 is sweet for a hybrid. Did he have the Haltech then?

Thanks guys,
Yes I don't post that much anymore. I kind of stopped most of my posting back in the old days of TeamFC3S and other small lists and forums. After about six years of this you learn to just kick back and read alot of the stuff and see what happens.

Yes, I did have the Haltech when I ran the 11.9@117mph. It was with a TO4E .60A/R Hybrid turbo with a stock block and stock intercooler. I have always tried things that people said couldn't be done just to see. That setup and the time it produced was one of those things.

I will soon have new pictures that will better show off the car because as a few friends have said and I believe these pictures do not do it justice. These were taken behind my garage the day after I had pulled it out of its four month slumber and cleaned it off. I now wish that I had waited until better pictures could have been taken before they were put on the forum.

Black7, I believe Wings West sells the wing now.

Later,
Ben

I love that wing, and want one for my 10th AE. I looked on Wings West, and didn't see it on there. Where did you buy yours from?

Oh yeah, sweet car! Looks like you've put tons of time and $ into it.

The yellow burns my retina, however, VERY VERY VERY nice under the hood. I'm beyond jealous. The body kit ... mixed opinions... but awesome car nonetheless

Thanks again everyone,
I should be taking some more pictures of the car on Friday and then put them on here. They will be taken with a much better camera. As some of you have said the yellow in the interior is very bright. I actually have taken some of the yellow out since these pictures were taken. It was actually too bright for me while driving around. I am also searching for new seats which may or may not have yellow in them.

On the wing, I can't honestly remember where I bought it from as it has been on my car for around three years now. The car is also going to the dyno next wednesday to fine tune everything. Hopefully I will close in on the 400 RWHP mark.
Later,
Ben

I will be taking the pictures here in Blue Springs at a local park. I will be running the car at KCIR once I get done at the dyno. Probably next friday. I will be running in the import event on June 1-2 at KCIR.
Later,
Ben

I had the same wing on my gxl. I bought it from Mazdatrix, but I am pretty sure that Wings West makes the wing. It looked really good on my car.
