2nd stage+ SPi twincharger system- he's supposed to be putting down over 290whp.

Tuls, software, please - don't create crack addicts and then take away the crack...

Wouldn't have it any other way. Who was I kidding, wouldn't be able to make it to AZ if I wanted to. The fiance wants to go to South by Southwest.
