The charge pipes hold good as hell no leaks or blown off piping, noone in my town understands that mommy and daddy wont buy you everything forever. they say its ugly i say ---- you. i got a new valve cover already, its the cleanest original finish valve cover ever. I have no times yet because with no job i cant afford my insurance and my momy wont let me drive it. it sucks, i already got caught drivin when she was gone. i need fuel management it does pretty good till about 5000. first gears rips the steelies the whole time and i did a second bear from ten and it broke loose some and then grabbed and put you it the seat. ill try to get a vid up sometime
