taeisallin Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 yea looks like mine is just getting ripped everytime the engine vibrates or moves under load. what do you guys think about treadstones? is there lots of stuff to move around? you can see from my sig... blowzilla dont have much room, pagemo's has plenty. what do you guys think about "da funk lock" that they sell on sqperformance? would that help my case? thankstae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starquestJOE Posted August 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 its nice to drive her again. the heavy flywheel is a big difference but makes the car a little easier to drive. boost controller is turned off, so i hope nothing else breaks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
