howdy,

talked with you a bit at HIN. Nice weight reduction - let's see - from what I remember

stripped the interior (obviously)
Removed the motors from the sunroof
chucked the spare tire
carbon fiber hood
Bride seat (only 15 lbs right?)
Car went from 3200 to 2600 lbs right?

SWEEEETTTT

nice car, but with Bride and Volks I'd expect a better battle board. But nevertheless still a nice car.

What theme are you going with (mention on other page)?? The JDM one or something esle??

okay cool. I going for the "that has to be a chic's car" theme. But it's a sick chic's car. I'm staying n/a though, as turbo will cut into the building fund for the Titan. LOL

God luck though. I totally disagree with the "tC and JDM shouldn't be in the same sentence" thing. Hello, most of the awesome aftermarket products are made in Japan. Also you're just going for a theme. In reality if you say that tC and JDM shouldn't be used together, then can any american driven car be called JDM?? As Japan has their steering wheels on the right side.

Well I already bought the MMW, and my CAI (when I was in Cali) before I ran into the guy that would have done my turbo (met in FL). Plus I don't know enough about turbos or SC to have one. I was tempted though, still am, but probably won't.

That ish gets on my nerves when people say that ish.

I'm thinking "shut up and let them do their car as they please. Especially if they didn't ask for opinions."

Nice! Pretty clean setup.

What do you have on your car that is made by JIC-Magic? I can't recall if they've made anything for the tC that isn't like, universal fit.
