This is what happens when you're stressed, hurrying, cutting tomatoes and thinking about something else entirely.

That sucks man, I was reading through a few of the big power build threads and many were still getting away with the stocks at the track. Ford rear end with new axles coming soon for you.

I wouldn't say soon, car is done for this year. I will be getting the Ford kit for next year and hopefully throwing down some lower times. With great power comes great breakage!

We just finished fabricating our prototype S2000 ITB cold air intake box.











Can't wait to put it on the dyno tomorrow!

Thread for it here: https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/968...ld-air-intake/

Thanks Hiep!!

I kinda got the sticker idea from other intakes already out there like my AEM cai, just having a sticker is easy and cheap when compared with more welding, I think when we reproduce it it wont be all metal like this one.

Completed the tune this morning
