Max, you da man, a larger single is exactly the way to go IMO, keep us updated, maybe I won't have to pick up that SC3 after all....

My how the tide has turned in this thread! Keep up the good work MadMax. I'd like to see some of the R&D and install you guys do on her, and maybe attend some dyno tests. Weapon-R is in SF right? Let me know!

I will definitely do that.. gonna talk to Leo at length on Monday. The badass thing will be the minimalization of lag, with that much exhaust pushing the turbo, power will be available at any speed.

The exhaust will have that fascinating whirr sound when I step on the gas.. when I pull up on the cars that will ultimately be looking at my blue lighted Lexus license plate cover, they might have some idea of what's in store

Mad... The BMW interior is the worst I have ever sat in.

Let's expand...

1- Leatherette??? Gimme a break. 30k+ cars shouldnt have that as even an option.
2- My elbows get sore form the arm rests, they dont even feel like they have padding at all.
3- The red gauges... sure they are suppsoedly better for the eyes, but they just seem so.... cruel.
4- The controls and center of dash, very functional, but very boring and rigid.

The Lexus design was focused on comfort first, rather than function... and if you dont belive that... have you tried the extra cup holder????

I felt like i was in a soft bed while driving the SC, it was plush, subtle, and calming.

I do miss that.
