Congrats! That is one thing I hope I don't regret - not getting different pistons. I have some in the build that Aaron is pretty sure are Wiseco's, but they are unstamped. I would have preferred to do the real thing but they were installed before I made that clear. We'll see.

as long as its built right. thats the whole point. now you can actually tune your car with no fear and make some real numbers with your fp black you have had forever.

you did not get any whp from that sorry you didnt and if you did 1 or 2 whp is hardly anything to go changing a whole system for. I need to load it on youtube for sure.

sure do but its not high on the list of priorities right now to be honest. Would you rather i have bought wheels or get your old seats you choose LOL. I ll be getting some set of rotas after i get my built transmission next month but then again i really want to get a carbon fiber VG first.

oK enough about the stupid stickers the car came like that when i bought it. LOL to be honest i dont give a damn about the stickers they dont bother me. All they do is reenforce the sterotype that my car is slow or stock or nothing is done to it. So when 400-500whp mustang owners gto civics etc want to race them then it gives them somthing to read when i blow pass them. Ill put them off if they start to fade or tear. other then that im not wasting my time with go-gone on them
