Flame suit? Dont think I will need it, easy way to not get flamed is use the search, and dont be a ricer, lol.


But as of pics, all i have are the ones from the guy who sold me it. I just washed it yesterday, so I will try to get some pics tomorrow!


And thanks for the welcome everyone! Been reading alot on here and I am glad to see that the DSM scene frowns upon rice, as do I.

Welcome to the board, be respectfull and you won't have any problems. Things that will get you scolded here are Bad grammar (i'm guilty), no punctuation, not searching, BUMPING YOUR OWN THREADS (big no no) ANd not posting pics of your car :P

Hell, i even got it for making an intro thread like this one, you're supposed to make a post in the existing intro thread (shhhhhhh)

Also, make sure to read "da rules" (fairly odd parents joke), but seriously, i admin 2 other boards and still had to read the rules here as they are numerous and strict on them.

But you will enjoy tuners for sure. the rules that be are what helps keep this one of the most informative and helpfull DSM sites out there...and the only one i'll post on !!!!!!!

Welcome and +5 on the pics!!1

Im still figuring out what all is done to it, but so far it has a boost controller, full 3 inch exhaust, and an open filter. Well I guess thats it. Anyone with any questions on the car, feel free to ask!
Hows it seem to be running? mileage? maintenance? any issues that you found out or previous owner told you of?

Well it has 114xxx miles
The kid I bought it from had the BOV vented, i fixed that
Had some taylor wires, swapped em out with some OEM wires, also changed up the chunks of carbon called plugs that were in it, and replaced the 80 amp alt fuse that made him think it had a bad alt in it, lol. I will have engine bay shots soon!

BTW, there is a photo section on this site to host your pictures for future reference. If you upload them there everyone will be able to see your pictures. I know that at one of my jobs they block content from photobucket. But if you upload them here I would be able to see them all the time. Just a thought. Just sucks when you scroll down through the forums and see the little red X's.

Doesn't the MAF allows you to vent a BOV?
