LOL @ fox

i would agree with everyone else and say that being affiliated with SPOON would be very reputable and badass, but you wont make any money on it...you're better dealing with the cheaper companies cuz everyone's on a budget build these days

Yep no internal mods, no forced induction (although my manifold does see 2PSI at full throttle), stock ECU, stock body, stock paint... I'm saving up for a tune so I can put some parts on without running completely lean, I need a tune.

I wanna thank everyone for there input all have been rep. Very valid points from everyone. Me and my father own a shop thats been open for 27+ years straight and i dont have to sell performance parts to make money,we make plenty just from body work and general autiomotive repair. reason for me saying this is because that would let sell performance parts a lil cheaper than any store in the area. If or when i get this situated i will let everyone know and ima see if i can get my shop posted in the shop section

I want a Spoon, spoon in the traditional SpoonSports colors. I'm thinking it might shave a few minutes off my lunch eating, for improved productivity performance. Will you be selling these also?
