Thanks! Working there was a very informative experience and made some great friends... Still the ONLY shop I trust, and same with my dad and his e60 m5(he was the test mule on the exhaust and intake...LOL!) Riding in a noble gave a new meaning to "Fast" for me (stock does 0-60 in 3.2 sec, 1/4 mile in 11.2 stock! Our shop car has 150 more WHP and it only weighs 2600lbs!) Impushing the owner to make mini products as i tell him the market is so huge he can dominate it! He turbo'd the non turbo'd saturn sky (2.4L) and pushed 400whp or about 510hp... every single product he throws out blows away competition... with just intake sccops, exhaust and tune he managed to squeeze 45whp (on a dyno dynamics dyno! which reads the LOWEST out there) out of the e92 M3 (the brand new N/A one!) The M5(N/A V10 pushing 500hp stock) squeezed an extra 70whp! N/A! I need your guys help to make this happen!
