That's when I got them from you, fall of 2006. 50k+ miles, a lot of which on a crap tune, I am glad it lasted as long as it did. Remember this car never once lived up to what it should have been. Fastest quarter time was barely in the 14's at 14.9x. Meanwhile Tim was running 14 flat and 13.9x with basically the same mods. Hindsight being 20/20 would I do it over again? No probably not. I would have just fixed the head gasket leak that started my mod fever and let that be the end of it.
