I doubt mine would get stolen, it will spend most of its time in garage

Same deal for me. I don't think car theft is that common around here relative to other cities. Those are the questions that I'm weighing. If I lost this car then I couldn't afford to mod another one, that's all.

Grrr...nope...but I guess this random noob I talked to in a PM was telling the truth...figures.

Well whatever...completely different setups at least.

The funny thing is, they are redesigning the oil feed for the turbo, so these guys for sure didn't get that. So haha to them I guess.

So you don't have the first X Black!

Meybe the first E85 X Black when the time comes? ;)

Yea, should still be the first X on E85 with the black...

It couldn't be worse people they gave it to, the guys from Espec are such jerkoffs. They show the worst overinflated numbers ever and act like no one can tune as well as Urkel and that everyone elses car is slower...great.

Overinflated? Maybe that's why they chose them! lol
But seriously, a guy would think they would want their newest turbo tested by a more reputable shop like AWD Motorsports, Cobb, or AMS...

Exactly, I wouldn't care at all about those shops, they are great shops. The place they gave it to is such a hack job shop and seriously biggest darshes ever. I will never hear the end of this in PM's. Your tuner can't tune...we make more power on pump than you do on E85...blah blah blah. sigh.

Overinflated?

Yeah, they claim to get 490whp on an FP Red on pump gas. 30psi on pump? Motor-blowing tunes to be sure.
