Yeah. You just go to the site, add what you want done to your cart, and ship it out to them. The return shipping is included in the price.

Mine was built with the wrong color needles, but they caught it when they were shipping it out. They rebuilt it with the correct needles and then shipped it out again. I am supposed to get it tomorrow.

It's unfortunate, and I really miss my SC, but it will all be worth it when I get it back

It's supposed to be 5 days in the lab once they get it plus shipping time each direction. I would say 2 weeks total time should be the average, but you should ask Lextech to be sure. If I had access to a cheap cluster, I would have done that for sure. I am suffering turbo withdrawals pretty bad.

Well guys, I have been hanging low from modding the car lately, just trying to take care of the lil things with the car..

But I did go over to a friend of mines house to help him work on his JZ MKiii supra, he hasnt road in my SC since I singled it, last time he road in it was when it was BPU on twins, But we decided to bring the GoPro HD Hero2 along aswell...LoL

He was excited to ride in the SC cuz he wanted to feel how his MKiii should after its finished.

Low Boost pull... 15-16psi


The quality on the Vid kinda sucked cuz when we recorded it we forgot & left the GoPro on upside down so we had to flip it on the cpu and that program couldnt handle the HD quality
*Note the car gets sideways spinning at 50-60mph n 2nd gear as u can tell by the center yellow lines n the road...LoL*

Hi Boost pull... 20-21psi
