            yea, it is tough not being able to floor it but i have good self control i guess, lol. Its still cool driving it over the damn sonoma plus i can make turbo noise without making boost so that helps, haha. Parts are scheduled to be here Weds so back to work then. Car is all shiny and zaino'd up so im going to try to get more pictures today.

              Ok, well now that the car is finally home i obviously washed it up yesterday and Zaino'd it up and cleaned it all up pretty much. So this morning was nice so i decided to go outside and snap a few pics and a few small video clips of it idling and low RPMs with the exhaust out the back vs dual cutouts open.... really changes the turbos noise (can hear them at a lot lower RPMs with cutouts open. First task to tackle with the car is getting the stock crank and alternator pulleys back on, my underdrive set up isnt cutting it with all my newly added accessories and my volts are way down causing me to idle badly once n a while... would also be a problem to tune it so i must get that done. So here are the pics... have to upload the video yet so that will be up later today. Enjoy!

              Just got home

              Back in the garage ready for Zaino!

                  Yea they are pretty low but on my entire ride home from W2W, city driving those terrible industril roads, freeway and in town i did not scrape once.. Not as bad as it looks actually. They do work nice though, you'll see in the video thats loading!

                    yea ground clearance is overrated. People are so afraid of ground clearance with LTs and everything, mine have cleared a floor hoist of all things.

                          • yea, i like the lowered look and it isnt bad if i didnt scrape once on an hour trip of all types of driving!

                            W2W is tuning. Already had the car down there once and they tuned for the big injectors. Going back soon for the final tune!
