My ECS "Meth Kit" is on as we speak. It is a top notch kit! I haven't yet gotten to experience the "Meth" rush yet because I am breaking in my new clutch before the dyno tune...wasn't planning on a new clutch, but I couldn't pass this deal up. I drove 9,000 miles in a year and a half, I drove almost 400 miles today Another 350 miles to go, hopefully monday she'll be ready to rock and roll!

Hopefully the kit will be released in a timely fashion! Aug. is just around the corner....what are they now saying; a late August release?

BTW: are you going to the FD Motoring Block Party Grand Opening tomorrow?? Dope rides, free food, celebrity entertainment and half dressed models (just the way you like em!). And, maybe we can get a glimpse of a bone stock blk C6Z hand-out an ***-woopin to a modded 996TT.

Personally, I'd never own a F/I car without it....especially here in Houston where it's hot as hell 4-5 months of the year. If you're gonna drop thousands into your car for an FI set-up, what's $500 more for a safeguard?
