yeah A/C coming off,i was gonna take it off but when i broke the line loose it still had freon in it,so i didnt want to take off a completely good A/C that justed needed more freon.I never use it and the belt is off so i probably will take it off.

i put the rims on right before the last autox last year at v.m.p. then put the s/c on,then blew it so it hasnt been seen much.

Looks nice, love those rims. I noticed that you have an intake on it and was wondering if you noticed a horsepower increase with it?

Nice, very nice. The seats look killer on that black too. I need to address my seating, but I like the headrest speakers, it adds to the "cool" effect of the car to friends.

When we gonna run these things anyway?? :-D

they are the sparco torinos,they were a biotch to install but worth it when done.Hey kevin its your motor we can run em when u want to.Hey i got another one headed to ya,its my bro's car.this one i gonna ship i think,damn thats a long *** drive.The intake was not thats much of a difference since it was done with a S5 intake also,but i think its less restrictive than the air box.Zach when you going boost?you know you gotta go,once you go you never go back!Jon88 SE it doesnt run that great right now due to break in,but once its back S/C Watch out,cause here it comes,it was badass before the first motor blew but im trying again and hopefully more successful this time.

Be patient- it would be a damn shame to damage that fine vert. Are you running a stock tranny and rear end on that monster? I was going to put in a TII d/t and then start saving the pennies for the SC.
