Default At the dealership today...

I was dropping my 04 off to get its 30k checkup when the guy started asking me if i had the stock turbo in it. So we start talking about mods when he tells me hes getting the Cobb V.3 thats coming out soon. I told him the V.2 just came out and that the v.2 was what he was talking about, but he assured me that it was the v.3. Has anyone heard of them already in the process of a v.3 or was this guy a little behind on the times?

Have you heard about the rumored v12.0a ?

I've seen the concept pics of it, looks like a 7 button mini LCD giga pet key chain device, i'm more fonr of the v2 look.

haha this reminds me of the time i was at the dealership and the guy was telling me how he used to have a '98 cobra and what mods he had on it, and i remember both myself and my brother were puzzled when he told me that stock it was 350hp/450tq and after the supercharger he was able to get it to 550hp. I didn't want to tell him about the car he owned, but i kinda knew that was wrong.

then things just got good when he told me how he planned to buy an STI and put and put an MBC on as a first mod...i just left after that.
