Thanks

He is running 50% / 50%

That Looks Damn Nice, maybe once I'm back, I will be able to see it on the car....

BillFromTR · 09-20-2007, 01:30 PM

Nice, cant wait to see it painted and installed!

wrxroy · 09-20-2007, 01:40 PM

Do you have that SZ55 installed yet? I'm very interested to see what numbers you are/will get as that is the turbo I plan on getting.

Chris05STi · 09-20-2007, 02:39 PM

Spec-C Tank is running 50/50 Meth/Distilled Water. Never had any ODOR problems or anything in the car/trunk. Your safe with this tank

. I refill it ever 2 months or so....so it def holds up nice compared to the 1 gallon setup.

I just dropped of the kit at the painters, he is going to paint it, and then I will drop the car off at the shop next Thursday to get it installed. I am just waiting on the grill from CVR Motorsports and then rush it over to the painters for paint!

SZ55 isn't installed yet....I do plan on installing it no worries, just need to get the supporting mods, and I will get them in time. Check out RacerXS, he has the SZ55 installed with meth injection. Its running like a F'ing bat out of hell! *And he tracks the car too!*

Rear bumper will be ordered in due time

.

***VSGTS14*** · 09-20-2007, 02:53 PM

take care of that kit!!

Chris05STi · 09-20-2007, 03:36 PM

Oh I def will! I only drive the Camaro to work, STi on the weekends or after work around town. And when it snows...its Duke of Hazzards time with the Camaro! Done it for the past 6 years.

BTW, the silver mesh pieces are going to be painted black as well

Looking great Chris!

Chris05STi · 09-20-2007, 07:12 PM

Thanks Lenny....hows the mirrors???? Driving with them are good or worse than the stockers? Still need to pick them up too

lennyk1313 · 09-20-2007, 07:24 PM

Well they are definitely smaller then stockers and show less then stockers as well. Pain in the a** to adjust till you get it just right, but I am starting to get used to them. The daily purpose for them is not the greatest but they look good

Allen504tke · 09-20-2007, 07:28 PM

Chris your car is going to look ridiculous!! I can't wait to see it!!

Chris05STi · 09-20-2007, 07:36 PM

Good info Lenny, they def look better than the stockers....and atleast that howling noise at high speeds will be gone!

Thanks Allen, haven't seen you in a long time.....can't wait till my car looks fresh again!

PartySTi · 09-24-2007, 07:54 AM

Chris05STi · 09-24-2007, 09:13 AM

Thanks Joe....your car is running well!! Can't wait till you get the rest of those power upgrades we talked about..........Mid 12's isn't that far away

!

Chris05STi · 09-24-2007, 03:39 PM

UPDATE!

C-West Front Grill came in today......dropped it off at the painters. He is going to paint the silver mesh black as well for the grill. Seems that all the pieces will hopefully be ready this Thursday or Friday...we shall see
