Love the cobalts though.. they look killer. congrats on the vortech.. I think vortech may be the way I go. I like the way vortach puts the filter in the stock location wheras Procharger relocates it right over the exhaust manifolds/headers. Never understood why they would design it like that...
Thanks everyone!

And yeah the gauges are pretty dang bright I must admit its a little annoying at night sometimes!

I have the A/F gauge, you can adjust the brightness. I think push the right button until br or close comes up, and turn dimmer on. Think there is a sensor that adjust to whatever light there is.

I see I wrote the right button, meant the left... but you probably figured that out by now.

My first thought coming out of the shop was I was terrified to even step on it. Getting on the freeway I gave it a little gas and at 3k rpms you can here it kick in and see the boost gauge rise and holy crap what a difference! Played around throughout the day and got some pics and videos up on my site. I will get more up once I get my car cleaned, its gonna rain tomorrow though supposedly so that'll have to wait









I don't know how to imbed youtube videos

Videos here!!

He talks about it in the other thread. Lots of spinning on the stock tires and he hasn't even tried launching from a dig.
