Default New toy showed up today =D

Check out what the UPS guy left for me today! I am dropping off the car Saturday, so by this time next week if everything goes well, I should be boosted. I went with the Brenspeed Vortech kit for $3799 for starters...

Hehe thanks guys, I'm like a schoolgirl right now, lol. I don't like leaving the car at a shop for days on end, but its necessary this time for the install. I've got some other stuff on the way for after the install: CDC classic chin spoiler, front turn signal tint, ghost flames for the hood, and a new white 8-ball style MRT shift ****.

get it dyno'd and get a good dyno tune while your at it and post up some #'s!!! but i am confused on the ammount of time in the shop; days??? those parts you listed should take a day tops. you could (if you feel comfortable) even do it yourself. its not that hard, i helped a friend put a procharger on his 06 GT about a year ago and it took us half a day including beer, cigarette, and lunch breaks.

Will do hammeron. I am dropping the car off on Saturday afternoon, but the shop doesn't do any work that day (just the storefront is open). They'll start on the car Monday morning, and assuming everything goes smoothly, I would think they'd be done Tuesday. I am paying for the S/C install, the welding/install of my wideband bung, and 3 dyno pulls with A/F. I'll be running the provided Brenspeed tune, and of course if the local guys see anything that needs to be changed or tweaked, that will be done as well. I expect the Brenspeed tune to be pretty good however.

First of all .. congrats!

Second ... I HATE YOU! j/k

Third ... screw the pics -- we want VIDS!

I've pretty much gotten all the cosmetic stuff done that I wanted to ... new hood coming soon (hopefully) ... all my performance stuff will be throughout the course of this next year.

Can't wait to see / hear the final product.
