Thanks for the kind words folks
The body shop gave me a call while I was in the middle of a jeep build, I drop everything and go pick it up and bring it back to our showroom.
when I arrived she was waiting for me sexier then ever

I was in a love/hate relationship with my greddy se. I loved it around town and when driving top down, but I really hated how bad it was on my long drives to the track. I would end up with a headache when I was on the freeway due to the drone the greddy has at 60-80 mph. I also hated how quiet it was at wot. So I decided to pick up the evs 70mm ssp exhaust from evasive. I dont think the quality is comparable to the greddy, but the overall performance,looks and sound is f*ckn awesome. I should have got this from the beginning.

I also picked a voltex 1s wing in carbon. A lot smaller then a full gt 1600-1700mm wing but definitely makes a big difference on high speed turns like the riverside at buttonwillow I painted the top portion of the wing black because the wing was painted the same color as the trunk. I will eventually wrap it flat black until I find a clean trunk to paint.

Just installed the rigid collars about a month ago. They make driving the car around rough and really bumpy roads so much smoother and quieter. Kind of felt like being a bmw or mercedes. Have yet to go back to the track to see how the car feels when driven hard. I am starting to pile up some minor upgrades the f20 needs. Ap2 valve retainers,Ap2 4 whole banjo bolts and ballade sports timimg gear, I will install everything at once because i am not a fan of working on my car after hours during the week.
