I walk out into the garage this morning prepared to take my daily driven FX35 to work, and I glance over at the supra and think, it is way too nice of a Phoenix morning to leave the supra in the garage. So I swap keys and I am off to the office. Driving down one of the main streets near my area I am stopped at a light. Ahead I see a 69 Camero SS turning right heading in the direction that I am going to be traveling. It is obvious this is no stocker. Slicks, Cowl Hood (wonder what was in there?), a huge tach on the dash. I quicky pull up next to him after my light turns green. It is an older gentlmen, probably in his 50's with no interest in showing me what he's got. So I stroll on my marry way. I make the last turn onto a two lane road and this stupid jetta is so close to my back bumper that I thought he wanted to read my dash board. We are traveling about 55 and the speed limit is 45 so I put up with it for about a mile and a half or so and then I am gettign irritated. I drop it down into 3rd, have a couple sips of coffee while waiting for my T78 to spool and then we are off. I quickly get to 100 and ease off. To my suprise he tried to keep up, although he was 15 cars back. He again gets on my ass, I ignore it as we are coming up to a light. He gets into the turning lane and comes up beside me. It is a black man and his two infants in car seats in the back. He says "Damn boy, watcha got in that thing?" I replied, " About 550 hoursepower. He says, "Woooheee, I gotta get me one of those motherfuckas to go to work in." I was dying laughing. Cheap thrills before a shitty day in the office. Like I said no kill, but it was definitely entertaining.

Hey man this is Nick's buddy Ryan...........after reading your kill story I DEFINITELY would love a ride in that thing :) Apparently Nick had some problems with being able to move his head since it was practically welded back into the seat. :)

I had Tony at UMS Tuning do the tuning for me, nice guy. Ryan Woon also tunes. Do you have AEM? I would either go with Tony or Ryan Woon, either one.

I'm actually looking into an AEM system right now since the boost levels I'm wanting can not be attained with the SAFCII I have right now.

Know anybody that can install the full system and tune it?

By the way.......I'm not a MKIV owner.......old school MK3 here ;)

Call Tony at UMS 480-446-8863, he is also in Tempe and tell him that Ryan Rayburn sent you. He tunes AEM's all the time and is very familiar with them. Feel free to call me with any questions also at 602-770-2414

i would have done the same if i was behind you in my golf, the only difference is theres no way in hell you would have gotten fifteen car lengths on me, or maybe you would.
