I was on wastegate pressure, hopefully make a little bit more (still doing research) with a boost controller and a new intake manifold. I put down 414/350 on a dynodynamics

Thanks for the kind words, unfortunately I have been pulled over more than a handful of times for illegal tint in my previous vehicles so i decided to stay with the factory. I really was debating to run 35%F and 20%R's but I think I will end up getting pulled over too much =/

Sweet ride! I'm in the market for a front bumper and you just sold me on the HD Front Bumper w/ CF Ducts. Question... did you clear coat your headlights?

Thank you for the kind words! I actually love the look of the HD but wish it didn't block my intercooler so much =/

As for the headlights, no, not cleared, I purchased the like OE aftermarket headlamps from eBay and Chris (G35Papa) replaced my old lenses with the new ones. Unfortunately the aftermarket lenses only last about a year before they start peeling their protective coating. I will either try to get rid of the oxidation from the OEM lenses and put them back in or sand and clear these aftermarkets.

Hope this answers your question.

Thank you for the kind words, sad to say the car caught on fire in my parking deck yesterday so the car will be getting parted out shortly. But The car definitely drove amazing before my money went up in flames.
