i must say that justins car is truly outstanding .. i found the car for him , went to atlanta and brought it back for him ... this black machine is so well equipped i didnt want to hand it over..

engine removal and reinstall took a amazing 3.5 hrs to complete , the remaining 5 days were spent , wiring , gauge install , intercooler and associated piping and exh work and a couple of hiccups here and there but overall my man had his car in about a week... i drove the car for 2 days prior to delivery and i will say this ,he had to retake his car by use of force .. i did not want to turn it over to him... soo much fun to drive and cruise in , i almost forgot my coupe


congrats justin , you deserve this and all the finer things in life for you and your family , glad to have been privilaged to do the work for you

Thanks, there's two ways of running the pipping, it was custom made, really depends if you're going with the factory intake set up or aftermarket, I kept the factory air box set up, so the pipping comes straight down. I picked up my motor from Larry @ drag international , know as team Orange now I believe ... engine, tranny, harness and computer; everything you need $2,800
