***UPDATE***
I forgot to mention this...

I really want to give a big thank you to Mark from XSPower/ClubNA-T. From day 1, he has provided incredible customer service and was just a call away if I needed anything. I would definitely do business with him again without thinking twice about it. He's a great guy

Here are some photos of the ummm goodies under the hood ...enjoy.
Hey carlos, thanks for the kind words. Your car looks really great, this shot you have is like the "money shot" in ****. Looks killer!



I enjoyed working with you, Tony & Todd. Good guys to work with and an absolutely no BS attitude to getting everything done. From all the pix I've seen of the work done by the crew, it's all top notch. I hope I get to meet you guys this summer and see the cars first hand.

More pix, tech tips, install pix, etc over at clubna-t.com.

Keep the shiny side up guys.
Mark

Anyone looking to get one of the XSPower kits installed, get in touch with me over at Clubna-T.com and I can set you up with a kit and an installer. I've got installers in NY/NJ, TX, and Cali. More pix, tech tips, install pix, etc over at clubna-t.

Keep the shiny side up guys.

LMAO... oh dam i blanked out about that Gazi...
I definitely have to thank Gazi for getting me someone to do my headgasket (yes i was too lazy to do it myself... part of the reason why my turbo was sitting there for months. I kept putting it off) Richie is a very cool guy and and I appreciate that he really stands by his work. Definitely keeping him in my address book.

I know we had our differences in the past..
Congrats on the build Carlos. The search for a blk on blk GS, the pains and struggles, has finally paid off. The pic above really captures it all..
