Thanks Brian, someone had posted up pics from the SEMA meet in Philly, and we were just saying we hadn't heard much from you since then, wondered what you were up to.

By the time you end up putting a turbo on a V8 GS, you might as well just buy an AMG Mercedes and save yourself the headache of the install along with the future maintenance issues to keep it running. And it's quite expensive to turbo a Lexus V8.

So, you'll see Craig in a German sports sedan before he turbos that V8 GS.

LOL, Kevin and I have this conversation often, he's probably right. My AMG was my favorite car to date, but it definetly came with it's share of issues.

The Porshe has definetly been considered.

yeah i do... hard to not flex when your going 60mph... if you put bondo on it, it won't crack immediately once you hop on the highway... i'm just saying over time you might start to see your paint crack and eventually the bumper will come shortly after.
