AC seats are probably the most awesome thing ever in the summer. Heated steering wheel is pretty close though in the winter. I feel like a d-bag driving an Escalade, but I don't care when I turn the AC seats on

Just finished up my ECS 2200SL build a few months ago. With the restrictor plate in we were at 12.5lbs of boost and 690 rwhp. I thought about pulling the restrictor plate out and saying the hell with it but I am not in the mood to build an engine yet.

Don't think I'd have the nerve to pull the restrictor on a 2200SL!

A lot of **** was broken around reverse, and I can only find the entire reverse gear to replace. Looking like $200 total in parts, so it could have been worse. Found out the trans has upgrade gforce shafts though that I may need to replace 
Thanks, I'll be reaching out

Damn, that's it psi wise? I should have went that route as I am already at 13 psi with the 1500.
