is everythig run in and good to go now? would like to know what power you are making on what boost...

very few people build CA's so not a lot of info on expected power gains. so i'm a little curious.
There are three easy ways of losing money - racing is the quickest, women the most pleasant, and owning an SX the most certain.

looks great Gary, long time no speak.

one thing came to mind, maybe you can consider it. At my job there's a white car (won't say what it is :) ) with white mags and it looks super 'clean'. I used to like the dark wheel look, but maybe photoshop your car and you never know...

just an idea
