ARE 422 Delivered!!!!!!!
My car was delivered today. :D :D Dyno numbers 458.8rwhp and 472.1 rwtq. Car was clean and professionally installed and sounded awesome!!!!!! Nice beautiful lope at idle. Stayed up most of the night last night in anticipation so I was beat. Took the car out for a little ride (mostly rural winding roads and car is truly strong. Came back home took Fernando and wife (from ARE) into DC to rent a car. Got back home and just crashed for about 3 hours. Got up a new man. Went out and washed the bugs off and headed to the highway. MAN what a beast, 1/2 way through 1st gear and broke the tires easily. Dropped to 2nd and got plenty more rubber. Got into 3rd and the red line came so much quicker than stock I couldn't believe it.
Very pleased. Thanks to Nick Agostino and his professional crew for making my dreams come true. Drag Radials ordered, but will make a few runs and post on the runflats. :yesnod: :yesnod: :jester :jester
