Hello, I recognize your user name from quite a ways back. Bryan is still here as Wald GS. I haven't seen Epik in a while, but I think he gave up on his drift machine and got rid of it. Congrats on the IS!

I have all of you beat.(except link) Check the reg date... I still lurk around, but I now drive an 08 BMW 335i

Gompka, I had your volt meter that you sold to me a few years back in my car ever since, I recently removed it last month when I sold the car.

Dang, beat me by 1 yr.

Welcome to the e90/e92 club. Watch out for the HPFP problem, everyone has it on their 335i.

Haha, Thanks. But I've had this car for a while, I just got around to selling my GS after parting it out.

I've gone through 2 HPFP already, hence the 2010 Z4 Loaner I had a while back. I don't mind, since the HPFP is covered to 120k and I have a really good relationship with my SA and he always hooks me up with my choice of loaner.

I wouldn't have it any other way, TWIN TURBO!!

Lol, I had totally forgotten whatever happened to the volt meter, i had that setup in my gs ashtray.

As for the mods not doing much besides some cosmetics to the is, I just got done doing a full engine build on my scion tc. Rods, pistons, machining, new sleeve job, arp main studs, arp head studs, stainless valves, 750cc injectors, return fuel system and a comp turbo 57mm .63 a/r that will be running close to 20psi. Just have to ditch the log manifold and get my buddy to finish welding the equal length and i'll be at 450-500whp with the scion tc for when i want to go fast.
