    Yes we can duplicate, we have five more to do after this one. Only thing is that everything is weld in. We haven't decided yet if we want to sell this as a kit, theres alot involved in installation, and everything is custom fitted to each individual vehicle. Even though the get put together on the same assembly lines, they are not always the same...

    makes sense but i do understand how things are specific. im curious on how this setup will perform. I think you have the possiblity to market some of this to some ppl that can do their own fab work. the brackety can make you some coin for sure..

    lovin the welds!!!!!!!! from a man that welds those are beautiful

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference

    Thanks for the props. We could definately sell the 4link bars, front/rear brackets, and all crossmembers. One of the really nice things about the kit is that the 4link ends are bushed, so driving everday on the street is nice. We have been using the ends for almost 5yrs now and haven't had a set wear out yet. As far as performing DBTBSS is cutting 1.6s on just motor, after the NOS is on he should be cutting atleast 1.4s or better...

    im curious in how its going to perform on Mic's truck not a stationwagon thats NA. Since him and I are both manuals and boost boosted why i was curious in his setup performing. 1.4s what i want 1.6s can be done stock suspension

    I bet I can get a 1.6 on the street, not just the track. That's what I wanted... for it to hook on the street also. This is all on 20" Nitto DR's leaving off idle an just flooring it... no feathering! Mine hooks, I just need to throw more power at it now and get a better wheel/tire combo.

    o not doubting yours bud, your NA you make alot more power then mic and I off the line unless we leave on a 2step. i can come out at 6k and make no power at all, but once it loads turbo it makes power...get me? thats why im curious to see if the entire suspenion setup is going to perform as it should or is the leafs still a better ticket for boosted. now if i was auto with Tbrake and my 2 step leaving with full boost then yes **** will probably pull front wheels but being a 6speed and having more lag then ppl have foreplay its hard to get off the line with power
