Default The day has finally come....Down payment 2008 ISF :)


Just waiting for financing this afternoon which should be golden and I will be in. Something like a Matador Red and has some nice mods on it for sure. Am very excited. Took a while but I think I made the right decision and the price was comfortable for me. Cant wait to officially be apart of the community.

I'm pretty pumped. I am getting quite a bit for the money. Can't yet spill the beans since it isn't officially mine yet but.... I don't think they make a bad color on this car. Will be sure to post pics. Hopefully next week I get a chance to pick it up

It took me since last July. And I don't know if this is the "right" one but I sure as hell wouldn't want any other one. It was exactly what I wanted without even knowing it. If that make sense. I a super excited to share in my enthusiasm when I "seal the deal" which soon I will hear the words approved from my credit union. About the excitement level when I found that Syclone

RR is one of our trusted vendors here who has supported the F community pretty strongly with constant development. Rafi is constantly supporting Cl with product info, tech information and on their multiple performance products geared towards the F brand. TTFS is a tuner who has been posting here and they seem to know what they are doing from a tuning standpoint , they aren't really F focused but they seem to have a lot of experience with other makes and are quickly getting up to speed. I went with the RR tune because I trust the RR team, but I haven't sent my ECU due to the transmission mess I'm dealing with now (see my post). The power gain is all over the place now, since everyone has different mods, dyno conditions ect. but most of the guys seem to be pretty positive about their results making a significant difference.

Last time I saw a red Isf was almost 4 years ago when I was working Lot Attendant at a Home Depot.
