That intake is kinda like ryans intake. It may look cool but may only make gains if boosted. Too bad he's not here so we could try it sat

Haha keep trying jake. I use crosslink south which is in cedar hill but they are connected. I actually quoted you 200-250 cuz i didnt know color. I think i told jack 250 because he wanted a candy which is a 2 stage. I prob could have gotton it done for a bill but as long as your happy. Alright so who wants their brakes done for a hundred bucks. Ill make it happen for a single color. Oh and by the way i dont mark up the powdercoat. I do it as a favor to my powdercoater and yall guys. He does the mesh and small stuff for me when i need it so i return the favor by sending him work

I saw the calipers tonight in person and damn they look good. I've never seen Jake that giddy before...that fool had a GLIMMER in his eye when he showed them to me!! They are gonna be sick once he gets them on this Thursday....


As for me....I got my MDU's converted over to true coils tonight at Jake's. WELL WORTH IT. The infamous noise is gone, I noticed a stiffer feel (which I wasn't expecting) and it felt more solid overall. Props to Jake as always for a job well done (and for the good laughs haha). Now I just need some toe arms and I will be set!

be careful with having the true coilover setup Brit...i know 2 people who shocks have already blown now from converting to that...thats the downside....I was told by BC RAcing not to go forward with that as my struts cant handle the added stress and tention.

Actually its just one Chris. One of those guys struts blew before if we are talking bout the same person. The 2 guys had them both replaced under warranty. You got to remember how most of us with mdus are runnin really low. id rather chance blowin out the strut than hear the annoying chatter of the spring in the oem mount. Cant wait for my toe arms to come in for the spring bucket delete

Well, considering that they now ship them as a true-coilover setup right out of the box, I feel pretty confident. I understand the concern, but the noise needed to go.
