easy does it there hot shot You know you love that people are asking you

update you sig and people wont keep asking you You need to make it USDM/JDM Junky

So who did you get the kit used off of anyways? Do a full write up on the LMS kit and post up some dyno numbers. I am really interested to see the difference. You know I was going to do this till I decided to part ways with my IS

By no means was I trying to be mean, sorry if it came out that way. I'm actually against making a mods list in my sig haha I never understood why people did that but to each its own.

I did a full DYI for the UAS air suspension but I cant find my camera! hahaha For the LMS I know for sure theres a significant difference. I actually found a local dealer for Procharger thats going to make me custom pulleys because they said something wasnt right with the belt setup that I have so we'll see.

I dont like to talk about "problems" I have with the car, just like showing the results haha. Anyways there will be dyno sheets and videos and more pics of course!!! But man oh man do I love my boost! haha

Wow..NICE!!! I was going to put a universal intercooler in my 350 off of my civic to make it seem like my car is super charged . Doing that i will be 1/2 a step ahead of everyone on engine mods!

lose the hood and FYI, if you're going to tint your tail lights, do NOT leave your reflectors in the dust. tint them too!!

orlando628, i know you made another thread with your CF hood and the responses were 'mixed', IMO you shoulda saved that mod for last, supershyguy has a CF hood but his car is literally tricked out so it works, your car is pretty much... well... stock. Of course if your happy with the look then i'm happy for you.

CF on white is clasic...

I suguest thining about paining the sides of the hood to match up with the grill lines. And you need something else to compliment it. Black/gun metal wheels or maybe a black roof.
