I am sure glad I am not in Maryland with you two. Then I would really be in trouble and would likely be hounding you guys for information. So I could build something. Luckily I am 6000 miles away. I didn't wanna get you started Mitch, but I guess the gauntlet is thrown down and now the Horsemen will ride again. The question is, IS THERE ENOUGH ASPHALT FOR THE 2 OF YOU. Tell me how the haltech does. I am waiting on my Autronic SM4 unit to arrive.
Well I guess some building secrets need to be just that a secret. XS-engineering is finding me a block- you know where this is leading to. Now I gotta find out how to beef up the tranny more.

I just took a little closer look at the list. A couple of notes on non TT stuff. I will leave the FI stuff to the big boys.
Exterior - I only see the Veilside front with no sides and rear bumper insert. The Veilside might be a bit too aggressive for no upgrades to the body lines in the front and rear.
Brakes - If you already have the StopTech kit than that's fine. Just keep in mind that StopTech no longer sells this setup as they no longer recommend the setup. It is usable but make sure to test the front rear bias. You probably will need an adjustment valve to tune down the rear (if you have not done so). With all that power, efficient braking will be important when you find opportunities to test the power.
If you have not bought the kit, you will only be able to get the front ST-40. The rear BBK is not yet available, but it will not be the ST-40. You can probably still get the ST-40 if you talk to StopTech and convince them to sell it. It is just not supported by them and you will probably need to sign waivers and such. Don't ask how I know.
Suspension - The Tom's braces will really complete the car.

Hey Ricky, It's still a sleeper...only a Veilside front, no sides, no rear. The carbon fiber hood will be paint matched. Only using it because of the heat issue with previous TT set-up. You know I'm not a bodykit man.
Jeff's head was getting a little big so I couldn't resist sticking a pin in that big balloon
Seriously, all jokes aside...Jeff has one awsome car. If you guys get a chance to see it in person; looks twice as good. It's been a long road for jeff and aside from a couple of minor issues, the car is a beast. I give him a hard time, but he keeps me reaching for bigger and better. And at this point....whats the point We both have very unique cars. Jeff raised the bar as high as it could go...I'm just hoping to equal him.\
Jeffrey, keep that bike on the ground! I need you around for the magazine shoots and the track I'll give you a call tomorrow
