Dude so stoked. As allie and i were driving up to my car she said, "Damn, your car sits like a bulldog or pitbull or something. (Then she rolled her shoulders in like how a pitbull stands and said it looks like this.) I was pumped when she said that. HAHAHAHA

Damn man I'm stoked for you. How long start to finish did the whole swap take, hours? I need to do this one day. I can't help it, and I'm sure people are tired of me saying it, but a swapped gc is SO ****ing sick.

Well last weekend we spent about 30 hours on it with 2 people and i probably put another 50 by myself. I did it in 2 weeks total. keep in mind, this is my 5th swap and i have a bit of experience.

Not bad, I dig the wheels. Despise the coilovers, they were trash on my GC.

What ECU are you using?
