hey guys, my mom finally let me drive my car in a parking lot with weapon*R, all ihave to say is... WOW, my subs are out too which probobly helped, but we had two empty propane tanks in the trunk so that kinda made up the weight (they were secured so they wouldnt move - and they didnt) now my car can spin the tires brake torquing without needing water or frozen ground as well. i did a couple runs amazing response, but only if its in gear (obviously) i stuck it in 3 and went slowly then punched it... disapointing... i can see how that would loose you a race! thank goodness for gateshifting. then i did teh same thign but in first, its like a rocket i tell you! i did one cross section run, spun the tires eaisily and then launched, much much faster than before, feels like before when i was flooring it is now at like 80% throttle or something.. whatever it is i dunno but its way way faster. I love this car

Sahsa, I know you probably wrote this many times, but again can you tell me how much you paid for everything? The intake, ecu etc.. from weapon R. I'm too drunked-out right now to look for it. I had a bad night

sorry to hear that deisal dude!

i payed 200 for the Weapon*R intake and thats all i have right now. I'm waiting for a cold ram and also soon the S-AFC which I am in the process of ordering.

Weapon*R Intake: 200
Cold Ram Adapter: 40 (not yet)
S-AFC: 340 (not yet)

but i only have the intake right now, just wanna make that clear. haha

i only got wheel spin from brake torquing dude, i bet if i punched it the tires wouldn't have slipped, also 10" tires could do it hahahaha

Great install instructions. Looks like you spent some time on the documentation. Did you have fun installing it?
