Congratulations and Thank you...

...to Ryan and Davin of Vakamon and Jarred of PDX for building my car. You have built a truly amazing vehicle (I waited 'till middle of the night to finally open it up). I feel a little guilty that I alone get to go enjoy all the hard work that you guys've done, but I want you to know that I do appreciate it and want everybody else to know what you've accomplished: 425WHP/418Torque on 92 Octane and the car drives like it was factory tuned, no issues whatsoever. Again, Thanks.

I think it goes without saying, but I want to say it anyway: They know what they're doing. If anybody is thinking of getting more out of their car, they should go to these guys.

A couple pictures of the tune:

Alexie, Your suby's a beast!
With Ryan and Davin's mechanical expertise combined with Jarrad's tuning you'll definitely pull the best out of a suby.

The best thing about those guys is how approachable and easy going they are. They all had to patience to deal with my ignorance and explained things every time I had a question.

By the way, as Mike said, the hood is VIS racing (http://www.visracing.com/oldcatalog/...ducts_id=3224). And the doors were done by GT Factory (http://www.gtfactory.jp/diablo.htm).

I actually don't know everything that's been done to the car power-wise. I left it all up to Ryan and Davin. I'll post when I get a specific list of what's been done.

He probably just wrote like a $15,000 check and told them, heres the cash make my car a BEAST lol. I heard them say it has Crawford internals along with a stroker kit that bumps the displacement to 2.7L. It might even be the full crawford shortblock.
