Very nice! That first pic of your car looks sick.

Did you have any issues with the install, and was it a used kit?

I think it was phase 2 motortrend. I'm going to have to replace mine soon due to the shiny stuff flaking off though. its okay I guess.

What radiator did you use?

Very nice looking car. Is that the GT Spec front lower tie brace? How well does it, as in did you feel anything after it was installed? On the TN kit, did you go with the reflash or an other EM?

thanks for all the response guys, that is the gt spec lower brace and i did notice alittle difference, worth the money for sure. For now i have the turbonetics reflash looking to get a utec really soon,and why so low i track the car at least once a month and the handling is perfectwith the suspension cranked down the sways set to the stiffest, and i had to make lots of room in the inner fender to clearance during hard braking or bumps,besides i love the look.

Welcome to the TN club! I installed my kit myself. Did you finish the install yet? How's the new found power?
