Thank you for visiting my site. I am extremely proud of my car, and I love every minute I spend driving and modifying it. That is the reason for so many pictures of her, she is a real photo-whore. If you are so inclined, vote me for the showoff of the week. I would appreciate it!

On this page, I will post up pictures of my current car and its current mods. On the following pages are pictures of the actual mod path.

UPDATE: I am now Stage 2! Ricer's beware!

no, i have a stock turbo, i have it tuned to 18 psi at 1500 rpm's. I have a 65mm aps cold air intake, full cobb 3" turbo back exhaust with a high flow cat. I have a stage 1 flash, stage 2 flash with my cobb access port with a custom stage 3 flash done at xxtuning in Hartford CT. they hooked up my car to the dyno, we did a full 10 pulls on the dyno, and then we went out and road tuned it and it runs fantastic. according to my print outs, i have 297 whp and a little more than 390 wheel torque. I have just over 48,000 miles and I still have the stock tires. They still have maybe 20 % tread left but I'm planning on getting new tires before the snow this fall. Have any suggestions for tires? I want something with good summer performance but still a tire that can drive in snow bc i still have stock rims.
