Go for it! Lots of reading, patience, and most important - don't settle for "good enough".

Yes. However I did modify the stock strut bar near the mounting locations for it to look better as it transitions to the thin pieces that run to the windshield. I could make a full dry carbon strut bart but I don't have the knowledge to figure out the structural integrity, flex, etc, for such a piece.

Wait you did this yourself?? How? Can you do mine?? LOL

Boosted Performance 04-12-2013 11:14 PM

The nice thing about being up north is that we get a winter that lasts 11.5 months. It will start snowing here tonight, and by the time the weekend is over there will be another 20cm's of crap on the ground. So all this time is pent playing around with cars. Then, we get to drive them for two weeks, after that back to work again.

Some great work here Jason. This will be a show stopper and then you will have alll that power to boot too.

Dzel 04-13-2013 03:32 AM

Gale you could make some money here just saying.

LMBmikeZ 04-13-2013 09:26 AM

:iagree: Jason you definitely have the talent to produce these fine pieces :tup:

Taking a break for supper. Then I'm going back out to reinstall the O2 sensors and down pipe. Then I can double check for leaks and possibly go for a drive tomorrow.

Boosted Performance 04-13-2013 04:59 PM

Looking good Jason. Can't wait to see the results with this housing.

Dyno in about a week, correct?
