did a lil maf sensor tuning bullshit last night.. pulled next to an STI and asked if he wanted a dig run. we went, i spun a bit and he put about a car out on me and kept it.. then we did a 25 roll.. i torqued outta the hole a little but he started to inch me back and had about a fender on me by 100-110.. he dynoed 309 hp and 320 tq so im not upset at all for only having one mod :lol:

it was black with black rims.. nice guy.. we went on the high side of gandy and then we also did some fuck-around runs at north 4th street but the road there sucks for me for launching and i was using a zo6 maf sensor which screwed my shit up lol.. the good, accurate runs were on gandy

modding cars is never a good and should never be considered an investment. You will never get any kind of return on what you put in. modding cars is a hobby, not an investment.....go big or go home.
