I have never heard of such a thing. Never. I would imagine that Brian from rotorsports would say the same.

BTW, the only thing available on the GXL that was not available as at least an option on the other NA cars was the AAS.

BTW, Dan, I would be coming in on 17, and could leave so that I would be there by 5, if that works out best for you. I would only be stopping by on my way to Charleston, which takes about 5-6 hours to drive. Wilmington is about an hour and a half from me, currently.

****, you're telling me? That's not the worst of it. I'm also travelling from Charleston down to Daytona for a couple days. Good thing I have my friend's Cavalier to drive, instead of my 7 or my GVR4. Well, I COULD always drive the Justy...

If anyone needs to contact me:

You can send a SMS message to my cell phone. Go to http://www.vit.is/html/en/ and click on "Free SMS." A seperate window will pop up. In the box under "Símanúmer" enter my number, 8950797. In the "Skilaboð" box, type your message. Try to include a phone number so I can contact you. You are limited to 100 characters, but, hey, it's free!

You can also contact me via e-mail or PM, but I'm not on here all the time. I know it SEEMS that way sometimes, but, really, I'm not.

Oh and heres a pic showing the custom weld job, along with 4" pipe adapted into the downpipe. You can see how much bigger it is compared to my apexi beside it.

Chris, I should be in town between 5 and 5:30, and will probably hang out there for about an hour or so.

Ok Chris and Dan,

I am staying at the Marriott, I think it's on Market Street just down from Hooters. I should be in town around 3-4 pm. Let me know if you guys are off work and want to do anything.

Tony

I'll most likely be able to get off Tony. I just got all of my nights off this weekend for my church ski trip. I'm sure I'll find someone to trade shifts with me. I get home from school at like 4. So I can come meet you or whatever. I'll let you know when I get back from skiing.

Sorry, I haven't been on in a couple days, as you might have noticed...

Chris, Dan, good to have met you. Man, that Mini is the ****! Now all you need is a turbo...

Speaking of which, Dan, can you go ahead and upload the comparison photos, where the APEXi and the one in your car are eating the other one?

It was great meeting you Ren, I had a good time in the short amount of time we had. You got to let me know if you get your hands on another one of those turbo's cause i'd love to play with one on something. What kinda car did you say it came off of again?
