I WILL NOT BE SELLING THE LIL THINGS 1ST. Prefer it all go in one lot as its all a ready to go setup. Its makin a conservative 350 on 18psi and over 1700nm of torque and will be going back in late nov for a retune and a few lil touch ups.

thx guys, im not selling no more, way too many dreamers.. unsure about the next stage whether it gets mini tubs or I mite get rid of the 42 setup and put a low mount 35r on it, 42 is a lil over kill for the street

Its a very odd combo but for some reason it works so well...
I reckon you scrap the V8 idea and do something that hasn't really been done like compound charge the GT42
