lol ghetto yes.

praise... Im not planning on installing anything, just merely to prove something for myself. I dont really like the look of things behind the grills, takes away too much attention. If I decide to do anything related to scoops, I would do the DINAN intake.

Used to have an e30 325 with an s14 engine swap... My dad has an e60 m5, had an e46 and e36 m3... I told you I am a good rpi customer because i trust them as tuners as I can back them up due to seeing what they do and how much effort is put in for minimal cost unllike other companies... As a strong supporter I back up what I believe is right because If RPI wasnt around I would not trust ANYONE with my car really and probably waste more money...

Haven't you ever heard the saying that imitation is the highest form of flattery?
