for sure

not a problem just anytime after this weekend is over. Eric was the one to put me onto it too, worked like a dream on mine. Hell if it works out for you i maybe we can make a deal on it. Im no longer running a MAF so i wouldnt mind getting a TIAL for a slightly cleaner apperance. anyways just hit me up through pm . Im gonna crash out for the night

I'm going to pick up the primo 3.5" intake when I get my Fp Red. That will probably be the time I get the cold pipe.

Ah ok nice. I met a guy name Jason when i went over to Thomas house. He has a red X with a buscher built 2 liter with a fp black. He had the primo 3.5 intake.

Of course I have other rides in between but isn't really worth mentioning though I also did have fond memories of them.

Would love to see the TM edition in person though!

When I get a place you or anyone else is more than welcome to check out the car.

I would loooooove to take some pics of your TME whenever you get settled down.

We've had a lot of nice BBQs and cruises. Check out my photobucket albums to look at some of the ones I took some pics at.

Mt Charleston / Floyd Park

Lake Mead

Valley of Fire

Nikon D90, post in lightroom.

I have a bunch of new lenses I've been wanting to try out.

We should all do a photoshoot some day for fun if anyone is down.

Some of the guys have been able to get the red to spool up by 3700 on stock cams. Now that they released the ball bearing fp red, 35psi by 3500 would be a blast! (hopeful thinking with mivec maps)
