The S/C looks great. I'll bet it made a big difference.

Not to be rude, but around how much did the engine mod cost you? That is a sweet set up! How loud is the SC wine? Also, what meters do you have on the pillar? How about HP? That is what I'd like to do!

Nice

spent around $24K for:
Maggie
Tune
Gauges ( Autometer boost/vacuum & fuel pressure) & Pillar $8145

Wheels $1095 + Tires $1100

brakes $1200

Front bumper and all hardware $1500

Caravaggio front and rear quarts $2500

Rksport hood $840

Painting of all panels + install $5200 (took 4 tests as GM uses yellow and white in their black tint)

Tax $1000

Shoulda bought a Z06 except love the A6 in a town with many hills and traffic lights, and love taking the top off.

Default cost

First what was the SC install price and the numbers seem a little low for a SC car? I have seen similar numbers with heads/cam install.
