Its amazing what a bit of plastidip dip can do to a car. This is what it looked like before the paint (not my actual car but it is just like it)

Thats messed up Josh

Josh, I cant believe he would say that he had anything to do with that motor.

I have said it once and ill say it again, Josh built my motor over a year ago, it has almost 15k hard miles on it and it still runs like the day I picked it up. I haven't had 1 issue yet.

I just raced a friends 2012 acura TSX in the 1/8th mile and smoked him. The video and pic of my time slip will be up soon.

Also should have a video up soon of my car reving up with just the RB header on there.

Hey josh I forgot to tell ya that the other day on the way to the drag strip I blew by my buddy on the way there and he is my witness that 2 - 6" flames came out of both exhaust pipes

I hope all is well with everybody. Hopyfully I can get the 7 back to NC for a meet this summer.

I love presents. Well besides the turbo II tranmission, drive shaft, starter, and rear end that I purchased this new stage 3 6-puck clutch and 10lb flywheel will all be installed within the next few weeks. One step closer to boost.

That it is. I have heard good and bad but mostly good about these clutches. So I'm willing to give it a try.

Let me know what u think from what I've read They're more or less xtd but different color and we know xtd can hold up well. If I'm not mistaken that's what SAM Josh And Andre have ran.

The name of that clutch is highly misleading lol. True Formula 1 clutches can fit in the palm of your hand haha.
