Default Shes Done... for now, and ECS did it!

First, I would like to thank Chris and the guys at ECS for transforming my car into a street beast. I had them install their custom single intercooler D-1SC kit on my A4 '03 MSG Vert, along with some Kooks long tube headers, high flow cats, and an x- pipe. The car made 504.9 HP and 465.3 ft-lbs torque. They also did Brembo rotors and Z06 Calipers, but I dont think they helped any with the HP. Anyone who is considering F/I, go for it... and have the guys at ECS do it for you!

Joe,

Congrats on the "new" car. I think you need to give one of your cute professors at Towson a ride in that car. Probably won't hurt your grade any.

It never ends, just waits "hiding" someplace until you've got a couple $$$'s burning a new hole in your pockets!!!

I agree!!! Especially when you get some exposure to ECS. Let's see you can up the blower with an F1 and get bigger injectors and a fuel system to deliver the gas. etc. etc. etc.

All I have to do now is find a good looking professor.
