Not been on here in the longest time. I'll get some updates when she's back home again. Had to go to a friend's house for some work and waiting untill I can afford my insurance deposit. Should be back home friday. The 1.6 is in and running sweet. Got done anthracite cesaros to go on and mhws fitted, new back box and a few other little things. Like a whole new car now.

Had to switch to stay 8v for subtleness so police don't catch on. And the 1.2 was bent to fuck after all the snow and stuff. It'll go 2.0 8v one day. Just if im gonna go big I'm doing it legit.
